I only know of rational reasoning that states we cannot know, and not what you are asserting here, that you do know of a logical impossibility.This depends on your definition of God, by God, I'm assuming you mean the Christian one, whose ontology at best is self-contradicting, and at worse features attributes that are so vague it ceases to have any practical relevance, either way sky daddy is a logically impossible concept.
You are making an absolute statement that God is logically impossible are you not?
Now, higher beings or more complex life forms may exist, but we cannot know because without sufficient evidence there's no valid reason to believe they do.
