One of my biology classes back in my college years talked about what is considered a success in an organism by biological standards. It is the ability of that organism to pass on its genetic code. In other words, if you had the biggest, strongest, most intelligent lion on the savannah and he couldn't get an erection or his sperm weren't motile, all the rest of the really cool stuff about that lion was all for naught. In short, that lion *doesn't matter* in the big picture.

I think that is a good analogy for our "god" here. He may have degrees coming out of his ass, he may have been a kingpin on wall street, he may know more about the fed than any other living person, but his inability to communicate his thoughts makes him intellectually impotent. Quite simply, he does not matter.
