Its is simply a play on words. Its the nature of our language that allows this parradox to come about, not the existance or non-existance of god.

It's beyond words. Fundamental to Christian theology is that it is the WORD of God willed itself to become incarnate as the Son of God -- out of love for mankind (his creatures) to take on the full limitations of the flesh and -- with it -- the limitations of mortal language.
Semanticists are like kids who find themselves in their Daddy's workshop and are playing with his tools. For some, words are toys. For others, they are the limited tools that we have for the serious work of understanding what can be within our grasp... I cannot imagine that the former will ever grasp the grownup world of Faith.
