theological answer: God is uncaused, independent, and self-explanatory; and is supra-dimensional which is that He exist outside the space-time-energy-matter U. envelope.
Rational answer, ie one with the least amount of ad hocs: God as defined in this sense cannot exist. Unless one is defining "God" to include the ability not to be constricted by silly things like logic and rationality, in which case all bets are off anyway.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
