To (mis)quote:
"The argument goes something like this:
     I, says God, refuse to prove that I exist.  For proof denies faith, and
                  without faith, I am nothing.
     But, says Man, the Babel fish is so astoundingly useful that it must be 
                    proof of Your existence.  Therefore, You don't exist!
     Oh, dear! says God, I hadn't thought of that!
and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic."

(I'm sorry I don't have the book with me now.)

you forgot to add: 
"That was easy," said Man, and for an encore proves that black is
white and gets himself killed at the next crosswalk. 

The "real-life" book was HGttG, but this was supposedly from a book
called "That About Wraps it up for God."
