What are you hoping to achieve with all this?
('A')
It appears you have failed to reduce the passage.
('B')
FACTS/observations:
1) The traditional theistic definition of God includes omniscience, omnipotence...., and the ability to generate non-trivial intelligence.
2) Mankind PARTIALLY satisfies the theistic God definition, on the horizon of scientifically OBSERVED/OBSERVABLE sequences; mankind has ALREADY created brain based models that compute 10^14 of the estimated total, 10^+16 synaptic NEURONAL operations per second.
3) God is then SIMPLY PROPERLY definable, as any likely non-omniscient entity [ie MANKIND] with the ability to generate non-trivial artificial intelligence.
4) Other theistic properties [omniscience, omnipotence, omni...] are NOT LIKELY, on the horizon of said scientific observation.
('C')
I have not any hope/belief/opinion.
