Hear me out... If God is omnipotent, then he can do anything. He has the ability to do everything, but to prove that he is truly omnipotent, he has to go out and do everything, right? So God has obviously stolen, lied, slept with his neighbor's wife, fed a goat, ate a lemur, hacked into a government website, created the internet, faxed me my memo at noon today, burped the alphabet forward and backward thirty-five times in one burp, worked at McDonald's as a night janitor, paid taxes, charged taxes, bore a son, raised a son, killed a son, etc etc etc. I guess the list is infinite... BUT, if God has done everything, has he written this question before me? Would he know the answer? He is, after all, omniscient, right? Does he know who goes to Heaven and who goes to Hell before they are born? Is that not manifest destiny? If this is so, where is our free will if God is just playing with us like puppets? Please answer each question without using the letter "p". Thank you.

You're just not getting it, are you? If God is omnipotent, then he definitely has to do things to prove to himself that he is omnipotent. If he cannot prove it, he is not omnipotent and therefore cannot exist in the spiritual universe. So how can we explain this better? If you want to be a pilot, you have to fly a plane at one point or another... So if you want to be omnipotent, you have to do everything at one point or another. It's not a hard concept to grasp, folks, and I asked you to answer ALL my questions, not just one (except that crazy girl who just did random yes's and no's that didn't even add up to the amount of questions I asked. Thanks for wasting my time...)
