By lying. You both are missing the point. I'm saying that if I'm lying about saying a rock can fly, or that you can drink water out of a computer, it doesn't say anything about whether or not the computer or the rock themselves are real or fantasy.
There's nothing about what the OP wrote which is trying to convince anyone that God exists. It appears just to be saying that IF God exists no one would able to know Him completely.

Why??? What do you mean by "know him completely"?
No one knows me completely but many know that I exist in reality, and I'm not a god. I would think that a being of this magnitude should be able to demonstrate it's existence.
This "no one can know completely" sounds like another fantasy attribute. You set up the category of god and reality (How do you know which category God falls under?), get on with it.
Edit: Nobody know's it(god) at all. They only know what people say about it, god is man made.
First of all, I'm just interpreting what the OP is talking about it. That doesn't mean I'm claiming it as true.
Second of all, no one in this post is trying to suggest that God actually exists or that anything we're discussing points towards the existence of God.
Thirdly, it may well be that no one can know you completely. From what I can see of what the OP said, he's just saying the same thing would have to be true about God if He existed. I tend to agree with that, since all definitions of God I'm aware of hold that He's omniscient, which means all knowledge is part of God, and since no human being is omniscient, no human being could ever know God completely.
