In a way. For a simple reason. Scott Adams once wrote that when someone is extremely smarter than you are you can no longer intelligently evaluate what he does or the way he thinks because you neither know what he knows nor can follow the logic of how he thinks. Thus his basis for "The World's Smartest Man" being Dilbert's garbageman. If he's truly that much smarter than the rest of us how can you assume it's not a good idea? And since God, as the Creator of the world's smartest human being is therefore smarter than him, it follows that the way God thinks would be a mystery even to the world's smarter human being let alone to the rest of us. ^_~

Mind you, anyone who wants to undermine this approach could probably point out that Mr. Adams had it wrong in presuming that human beings lack the ability to evaluate even the smartest of their numbers on the grounds that there is a distinct limit to how much smarter than the average even the most intelligent human being is, but I in my own turn would then say that this still does not alter the fact that God in order to be God clearly has to know a *lot* more than any human does and that this means we don't necessarily understand him all the time.

I wonder though, given that Scott Adams is an ardent atheist as well as an ardent elitist, which would annoy him more - That I have hijacked one of his arguements in favor of elitism to use as an arguement on behalf of God or that to demolish this arguement is to demolish his "dumb people should be ruled by the intelligent" philosophy?
