I read something funny on the physicsforums.com message board. It is an exciting new theory on why God seems to be missing from the universe. It is possible that this could help us in our understanding of these disappearing gods over the past 2000 years.

Apparently, an all-mighty God would collapse into a black hole singularity by his own mass. It is possible then, that black holes are actually God's that have been crushed by their own might. Why is the important? Well, since you can't see black holes, it could explain why so many Gods have gone missing. Now we can finally answer the question of where Zeus, Odin, Jesus and friends have gone over the years.

Any thoughts?

I think that, in keeping with the classical ontological argument (I can imagine a being greater than which no being can exist...), if God had any mass he would have to have infinite mass. If that were the case, then God would indeed be a black hole -- and we'd be in it!

The last that I heard, black holes actually have the volume of about maybe a mountain, but are just very dense. Am I wrong?
