The omnipotence argument.

Started By parsonstreet on 9th December 2008 at 00:34

This one is supposed to stump theists. What do you think? Could an omnipotent god design a rock that was to heavy for him to lift? :evilbat:

That is such a boring 1st year student of Theology/Philosophy question, that I am not going to dignify it with any sort of answer.

The thought of anyone even trying (never mind succeeding) to mangle Sphinx's brain is pretty daunting. Are you planning on selling tickets for this event, Parson ?
