Two possibilities: God is infinite, or God isn't infinite.
If God is infinite:
It is refuted, because, not being
Infinite, your God is contingent, and therefore
superfluous. It is against Occam's Razor to
make up a God, to explain things, when that
God, being contingent, needs to be explained
as well. That multiplies explanations beyond
logical parsimony. It is disproved, because a supernatural
entity, of which Gods are by definition, if finite, are
subject to Infinite regress, which is self-refuting.
Non-supernatural entities are not subject to
infinite regress, because existence is
conceptually irreducible. If you say your god is finite, then your
God is disproved because it can't be called
a God. Gods are by definition, supernatural, but
finitude is of the natural world. So, saying your
God is finite, means it can't even be called
a God. Not only that, but the concept would
be further self refuting, because, if finite things
can be called God, then the entire God concept
is impossibly incoherent, since everything in the
natural world. including yourself as a human, can
be called God.
If God isn't infinite:
An actual infinity is impossible as an actual infinity commits the fallacy
of the floating abstraction, which makes it illegitimate.

We follow the Ten Commandments which forbids theft. That includes Intellectual Property (IP) theft. But hey, what do we backward folks know, eh?
