While we've discussed this before, in an attempt to explain to a group of Christians a connection between the terms "omnipotent" and "forever" I am trying to express how many serial universes She might already have created
I seek the most economical way to write an unimaginably large number. For example, how would one write the sum of one centillion (ten to the 303'd) factorial, factorialed that many times over again, etc
Thanks to anyone with a bent for mathematical curiosities

I'm not sure I understand the problem correctly.
((10^303)!) ^ ((10^303)!)
If you write it by hand or with MathType(c), for example, you can get away without the carets and the parens.

yes we have discussed this before; as a general rule we are polite here, and as in most polite society, we don't discuss religion or politics.
but then you are old and senile (or perhaps old and stupid, or old and rude) and you keep forgetting that. but somehow you are not so old or senile that you forget to bring up topics 'brought up here before' -again and again.
hmm. maybe you're just a troll.

Most of my dieties prefer to create parallel universes rather than serial ones... takes at least Aleph-null fewer eternities.

My last answer is wrong. That 'sum' thing is throwing me off. Regardless my last answer is wrong.

Fal yes thank you, that was the sort of expr I was looking for. Now can anyone suggest a much bigger number but using even fewer characters

wouldn't it be a lot simpler to just use "googleplex"?
