Is god so powerful can he create a stone so heavy he himself can’t lift it?
One reply to this is that God can do anything possible.
Now, ideas about what is possible vary. For example Descartes could not conceive of a triangle where the angles did not add up to 180°. However, even in Descartes’ time it was known that a triangle on a sphere will have angles that add up to more than 180° (you can make a triangle with 3 right angles on a globe and those angles add up to 270°).
So the idea might be refined to be more that nonsensical things remain nonsensical. As in, you can ask the question, “Can God change the color of a flower to Tuesday?” But even though it is perfectly correct English, it doesn’t make sense, and your question is bogus, not God.
So basically what you’re saying is god is not infinitely powerful. His powers must obey natural order.
He’s basically just a human. Not god.
No, theyre saying language is fallible, that the appearance of paradox only appears so because of the imperfectness of language
We’re not talking about of imperfectness of language but the infinite power of supposed entity.
Evil is a subjective perception, that is only possible because we have consciousness and free will.
But if God sees all and has a plan and knows the future, how can we have free will?
If true we wouldn’t have free will, but god does not exist, anymore than Harry Potter exists.
Also the concept of an all powerful god is moronic.
Can god create a rock so heavy even he can’t lift it?
So theologians have changed it to god is the maximum powerful implicating: That is possible.
But clearly that means there are things god can’t do, because there is a limit to his power.
