I don’t have everything figured out. I never will. It’s impossible for any one single person to know everything in the world– to have infinite knowledge is something reserved only for our Maker. But I’ve long battled with the idea of ‘God’ and whether or not He exists; I always come back to the understanding that He does. Whether...

In my last post, I discussed a few views of some characteristics of omnipotence. I concluded that because we are using logic to reach a conclusion, that we could rationalize any string of text to support our own views. So while I may make a valid point here, someone else could make a valid point elsewhere. It is just my opinion that my points hold more water! =] The...

Or a similar wild card that God is above the ideas of logic that we finite creatures use; God is infinite and...

The omnipotence paradox attempts to challenge the idea that God is omnipotent. As noted in the previous post, it would be best to discuss the idea of omnipotence before discussing the omnipotence paradox so I am going to make it a point to devote the next post to dissecting the idea of omnipotence as discussed by other philosophers. This post, however, is going to...

This blog is affectionately named after my favorite paradox: What happens when an irresistible force meets an immovable object? It parallels the omnipotence paradox which poses the question: Could an omnipotent being create a stone so heavy that even that being could not lift it? As Christians suggest that God is omnipotent, the omnipotence paradox is presented to...

Everyone loves a good paradox, right? It creates controversy, discussion, and even prompts people to think more than they normally would. Many others merely like the idea of creating a sense of confusion that a paradox can be known to do. Perhaps because people are scared of the word or the idea it represents, when we hear it, we hear a loop of mayhem. But if we...
