Um, what?
Yes this is absolutely hilarious. I once had someone pull this on me. They sat and told me how wrong I was for attempting to understand god or ask for proof of god on a logical level because "god is beyond your understanding." Then when asked about evil and wrongdoings in the world they seemed to have such a nuanced, intricate understanding of the inner workings of god's mind and how even though sometimes it may seem like he doesn't care about us he is doing all of that for a reason and blah blah blah. It's very interesting how quick they switched from "there's no way to truly understand god" to "well this is how god works and here's why you're wrong."
