This conception lets you do a lot of fun associations. Since morality seems pretty tied up with good epistemology (preferences and beliefs are both types of knowledge, after all), and since knowledge is power (see Eliezer’s posts on engines of cognition), then you would expect this conception of God to not only be the most moral (omnibenevolent) but the most knowledgeable (omniscient) and powerful (omnipotent). Because God embodies correctness He is thus convergent for minds approximating Bayesianism (like math) and has a universally very short description length (omnipresent), and is accessible from many different computations (arguably personal).

Delicious delicious metacontrarianism...
It’s like Scholastic mad-libs!
Preferences are entangled with beliefs, certainly, but I don’t see why I would consder them to be knowledge.
What is your operational definition of knowledge?
