Nah. Just because when we speak to one another we assume that the potential 
for understanding exists does not mean that God guarantees this relation, 
not does it imply an original godlike form. If you go to fly a kite, you 
assume - through your actions - that flying a kite is possible. This does 
not at all mean that God guarantees for you that your kite will fly.
