It is possible to know with absolute certainty that something is false. If something is logically impossible (i.e. it is self-contradictory) it cannot exist.

Iaino's God is self-contradictory by his own admission therefore we can be certain that it does not exist. With no faith required.

No, in fact it would prove that THAT God could not exist. It would be a necessary truth.
