You don’t understand what you are saying.

Yes 1D and 2D are used to explain PHYSICAL OBJECTS, if a thing is not a physical object why do they need to have dimensions?
The question is do they exist or not?

Do you know anything that exist in 1D or 2D space?

TenQ:

Dimension exists SOLELY for physical objects.
First look up the definition of “dimensions” and why it is needed.

In a one-dimensional space, objects are represented as lines or curves along a single direction. This dimension is often used to describe objects that have length but no width or height. Examples of one-dimensional objects include a piece of string, a wire, or a straight road.

In a two-dimensional space, objects are represented on a plane, defined by two perpendicular axes (such as x and y). This dimension allows for the description of objects with length and width, but no height.
Examples of two-dimensional objects include squares, circles, triangles, or images on a screen.

If a supernatural being and angels are not physical object why do they need to have dimensions talkless of having more and more dimensions?

You are not getting the point

In 3D space, the three axis x, y and z are unconstrained: therefore objects can move in any direction

In 2D space, one of the axis is constrained to zero: therefore objects can only move in a plane

In 1D space, two of the axis is constrained to zero: therefore objects can only move in a line

What then happens to this hypothetical object when the three axis are constrained to zero?

Leave the supernatural for now

You are the one not getting it.

In 3D space, objects have the freedom to move and occupy positions along three mutually perpendicular axes: x, y, and z. Each axis represents an independent direction, and objects can move and interact in any combination of these three directions ONLY.

In 2D space, objects are constrained to a plane defined by two perpendicular axes, typically represented as the x and y axes. In this case, objects can move and exist within the plane but do not have the freedom to move perpendicular to it (along the z-axis). The movement is limited to two dimensions.

In 1D space, objects are constrained to a single line defined by one axis, such as the x-axis. In this scenario, objects can only move along the line, and their movement is limited to a single dimension.

The number of dimensions determines the number of independent directions in which objects can move or be positioned.

In 3D space, objects have three independent axes, and movement can occur in any combination of these three dimensions.
In 2D space, objects are limited to movement within a plane defined by two axes, typically x and y.
In 1D space, objects are restricted to movement along a single line defined by one axis, such as the x-axis.

If all three axes in a three-dimensional space are constrained to zero, it effectively means that the object is restricted to a single point. When all three dimensions collapse to zero, the object loses any extent or spatial size. It becomes an infinitesimally small point in space.

In this scenario, the object no longer possesses any dimensions or the ability to move or exist in any spatial direction. It is static and confined to a single location in the zero-dimensional space.

This hypothetical object, reduced to a point with zero extent, loses the concepts of length, width, and height. It becomes indistinguishable from other points in the space, effectively merging with them.

each dimension is not considered a subset of the previous one. Instead, each higher-dimensional space encompasses and contains the lower-dimensional spaces within it. So, a 0-dimensional point can exist in a 1-dimensional line, a 1-dimensional line can exist within a 2-dimensional plane, and a 2-dimensional plane can exist within a 3-dimensional space.

Let assume you have an infinitely thin paper typifying a 2D space within our 3D space, is the paper not a subset of our 3D space?

We can theoretically stack infinite layers of the 2D papers in our 3D space.

It is a subset because the 2 D space can be completely described from the 3D space.

it's important to note that the paper's 2D nature restricts its extent and capability compared to the full 3D space. While the paper exists within the 3D space, it does not occupy or utilize the entire third dimension. It is confined to its two dimensions within the larger 3D context.

the zero-dimensional space is the simplest form of space and does not contain any additional dimensions beyond a single point. It represents a location or a position without any extent or direction. It is not a subset of the 1D space because the 1D space requires at least one dimension of length or extent to exist.

In the context of dimensional hierarchy, the 0D space can be considered as a building block or a foundational point, from which higher-dimensional spaces can be constructed.

All you need to do is understand the difference in complexity between 2D and 3D then use your imagination to work out the difference between 3D and the elusive 4D or higher. A lower dimension is just a tiny "slice" of the higher dimension

It has everything to do with it.
Before talking about 1D, let us talk about the most basic. Understand the basics.
Hope you know there is a difference between beginning and first.

zero dimension refers to a point, it is the most fundamental building block in higher-dimensional spaces. One dimension, on the other hand, introduces the notion of length or distance along a straight line.
zero dimension is a concept that forms the basis for constructing higher-dimensional spaces, including one-dimensional spaces or 100000- dimensional spaces.

You’re not even intelligible enough to have a conversation with. You use the concept of set wrongly and you use the concept of infinity wrongly. You are not saying anything comprehensible yet you keep on going. This isn’t a religious gathering where people get away with such chicanery.

We live in a 3D world or 4D (if you consider time a dimension). If planes such as 5D or more exists, we obviously can’t access them and if someone were to access 5D, such person would be hard pressed to describe his/her experience.

Your problem is using this obvious knowledge and attempting to equate your god and spiritual mumbo jumbo as having existence in higher dimensions which you will call “spiritual”. So, a 3D being can’t comprehend a 5D world just like an atheist can’t comprehend “spiritual” things. That’s your whole shtick. However, leprechauns occupy all higher dimensions so your god is shit out of luck.
