It is an ancient Christian claim that God is so beyond anything we can imagine or understand, we can know nothing about God by our own efforts. all we can know about God is what god himself tells us by revelation. A good example here would be William of Okham's position on the incomprehensibility of God.
From here theologians have claimed god is omniscient, omnipotent and perfectly good. This soon creates impossible paradoxes. The problem of good and evil, omniscience vs free will, God's predestination of all and why God arbitrarily saves some and not others if God is indeed as the bible claims, merciful, just, fair and compassionate. Which the mythology, the supposed true revelations of the Bible demonstrate God is none of those things.
The God of Bible and Quran cannot then exist as claimed. As far as this all goes, that comprehensible, perfect, simple God of the Bible and Quran self destructs. and all theological claims hanging off this debunked God are automatically falsified also.
Again, if God creates all and is truly omniscient, knowing the future in all details, that God must then choose a staring state of existence for any world God creates. All is determined strictly by God's choice of a start of any world he creates and so free will is impossible. Which makes to problem of evil and heaven and hell et al a problem for a god claimed to be fair, just, compassionate and merciful.
Strong atheism is quite capable of demonstrating this incomprehensible God of the Bible cannot exist as claimed. There is no good reason to believe in this god and many good reasons to not believe in such a incoherent set of claims this God entails.
