Though that does not mean that God couldn't to a logical paradox since
He can do anything (if you do believe that).

And similar the other way around: it may matter to you although you
don't believe in Him since you don't have a proof that He does not
exists. (It may matter to you because He might drop a stone on your head
if He likes :).
The existence of God is not something really worth discussing with logical
arguments for it is a matter of (religious) belief, unless somebody finds
a proof as in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy :-) Anybody seen a
babble-fish 'round here ???
(Wait: isn't that another bible ... :-)

Just my 2c,
