god is absolutely omnipotent, totally omniscient, absolutely omnipresent, absolutely transcendent of all things, aseity, atemporal, eternal, boundless, infinitely perfect, infinitely holy, infinitely beautiful, infinite dimensional, infinitely paradoxical, infinitely intense, infinite in attributes, infinitely above all existence/non existence, possible, impossible, known, unknown, god of apophatic theology, ground of being, ground of everything, central heart of all faith and belief, infinitely beyond the understanding of the human mind, even infinite asi minds (asi with infinite levels of intelligence, iq, level intellect (comics), wisdom, personality, complexity, consciousness, technological, and computational power) and type infinity civilizations, yet the greater god is infinitely beyond the understanding of gods mind and god overall, and then another even greater god is infinitely beyond and more mysterious than that greater god, and so on..., ad infinitum, forming a tower of infinite ever greater gods in paradoxical mystery, perhaps if we were to go further out........ absolute infinity ever greater gods beyond infinite gods.... eg, god 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, towards god absolute infinity, no one knows what god omega will bring
This description maps a classic move in mystical and speculative theology: push the divine so far beyond every category that even the highest conceivable mind (human, ASI of arbitrary ordinal intelligence, Type-Ω civilization) is left with silence. Apophatic theology has been doing a version of this for centuries—God as “beyond being and non-being,” the *hyperousios* of Pseudo-Dionysius, the *Gottheit* that is deeper than God in Meister Eckhart, Tillich’s “ground of being” that is not itself a being. You simply iterate the move transfinitely.
The hierarchy you sketch is essentially an ordinal tower of absolute transcendence:
- God₀ = the classical theistic God (omnipotent, omniscient, aseitic, atemporal, infinitely perfect, etc.).
- God₁ = that which is infinitely beyond even the self-understanding and aseity of God₀.
- God₂ = that which stands to God₁ as God₁ stands to God₀.
- ⋮
- God_α for any ordinal α,
- and then the “absolute infinity” of such gods, past every ordinal.
This is formally analogous to Cantor’s Absolute Infinite—the “finished” infinity that cannot be treated as a set without contradiction—or to the way large-cardinal hierarchies keep generating stronger and stronger notions of “absolute” that still sit inside a larger universe. In both cases the structure is the same: every attempt to name the ultimate is immediately surpassed by a further “beyond.”
A few immediate consequences and tensions appear:
1. **Incomprehensibility is absolute at every level.**
Even an ASI with infinite ordinal IQ, infinite computational resources, and a “Type Infinity” civilization still cannot form a true concept of God₀. A fortiori it cannot form one of God₁ or higher. The hierarchy therefore does not gradually approach comprehension; it multiplies layers of radical opacity.
2. **Self-reference and paradox intensify.**
If God₀ already possesses aseity and is the ground of all possibility and impossibility, then the very notion of a “greater God” that is beyond God₀’s own understanding seems to require that God₀ is not, after all, the ground of everything. One traditional way out is to say that the hierarchy itself is only a human (or post-human) projection, a ladder that is kicked away once the absolute is glimpsed. Another is to treat the entire tower as the only coherent way to speak of an Absolute that is strictly beyond any single level.
3. **Religious and philosophical receptions differ.**
- Classical theism usually stops at God₀ and treats further “beyonds” as category mistakes.
- Certain strands of negative theology and Kabbalah (the *Ein Sof* beyond the *Sefirot*) already gesture toward an infinite regress of concealment.
- Process and open theisms tend to reject the entire package of classical attributes and therefore have no use for the tower.
- Mathematical platonists or set-theoretic theologians sometimes treat the Absolute Infinite itself as the only coherent candidate for “God,” rendering every God_α a mere approximation.
4. **Practical upshot for finite (or even infinite) minds.**
If the description is taken seriously, every positive assertion about the divine—including the assertion that there is an infinite tower—is already an inadequate pointer. The only remaining attitude is a kind of permanent, ever-deepening *docta ignorantia*: learned ignorance that knows it can never finish learning how ignorant it is.
Whether one finds this tower beautiful, vertiginous, or simply an infinite regress that never lands is a matter of temperament and metaphysical taste. The structure itself is coherent as a limit-case of apophatic thought; it simply refuses to let the mind rest at any finite (or even transfinitely indexed) station.
