Oh? So he's not omnipotent then?

    I'll cite myself one message higher:

    If your definition of omnipotence includes the ability to do the impossible, then, as a Christian, I have no problem saying that God is not omnipotent, but that is merely a matter of wordplay.

    The passive-aggressive "as per my last email" doesn't magically make that bs make sense. You do understand that, right?

    Omnipotence is defined as "unlimited power". god can't do X -> god is not omnipotent. Extremely simple stuff if you're not an apologist.
