i'd think that one should define what we mean by the term "god" before even beginning any discussion on the logic of faith. it seems that sentience is an integral part of the definition of god. it must have the will to effect us and our world, implying a self-awareness and a desire. this seems to rule out the uncaring energy of the universe. humanity has created this concept. by claiming that our understanding of it is illogical, you also make the claim that the concept itself is illogical. by claiming that god is the universe itself, you deny the very meaning of the term and, in doing so, deny the existence of god. redefining god does not validate its existence, it denies it.


johnny- you should have first asked your professor to define his concept of god before stepping into such a ludicrous discussion.
