Nah. It is nonsense, that is what it is. Totally "You've fallen down the rabbit hole and smoked the caterpillar's hookah" level of nonsense.willhud9 wrote:Lastly, LOGICALLY-
If God can do anything, and is omnipotent, and can even do the impossible and if changing an absolute thing while retaining its absolutism is impossible; then God can change an absolute thing while retaining it's absolutism.
Simple if-then statement logic.
How is that so bloody hard to understand? Unless you simply don't want to admit that in this regards you are flat out wrong.
This isn't about mere mortals being unable to comprehend the paradoxical majesty of the almighty. This is about words having definitions. If you cannot mean what you say, you cannot say what you mean. That's logic.
Something cannot do absolutely anything including things which absolutely cannot be done. Two mutually contradicting absolute statements cannot both be valid. At least one must be false.
Even theomagicians retreated from that position early on and came up with the "god can do anything except the logically impossible" definition of omnipotence. However, if there's an exception its not an absolute, and some just couldn't accept a less-than-absolute omnigod so stuck their heads deep into the "god's beyond logic, neener, neener!" rabbit-hole.
But, to paraphrase, that which is wibbled to be without logic can be dismissed as illogical nonsense.
