Any intellectual knows better...
No truly scientific, intellectual believes such a preposterous fantasy. Any logical, thinking, realistic mind knows that such an infinite "God" is totally impossible. But, such a mind must also know, deeper down, that the only thing more preposterous and impossible is that there is no such God. He is more infinite than infinity, more real than reality, truer than all the truths of the universe ... All of which He is the Creator, and therefore the Greater. RB
"And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men, it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible." Mark 10:27
If you are offended at my certainty of a belief you think impossible, I am not offended at your offense of unbelief, for my Christian faith is a gift of God, not my own good work. It is based on the very words of God, which I believed and thereby received His faith.
"Faith cometh by hearing ... the word of God." Romans 10:17.

The human offense at the Christian's certainty of faith was foretold by Jesus ...
"Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offenses will come, but woe unto him, through whom they come!" Lk.17:
Another thing God's word says is impossible is "hope" or "peace" with God ... without faith in Him.
"But without faith, it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." Hebrews 11:6.
Having heard God's word, above, you are invited to believe and come into His presence through believing in His written word which tells of His living Word, Jesus Christ.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him, and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.... That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Jn.1:1-5, 1:9-14.
Believe it or not, you too can believe ... if you study and hear His word.
