if god is almighty and powerful, could he build a rock that he himself could not lift?

Answer 1

What a stupid question. Can you answer my question? Who the hell cares? Why are you challenging religion on yahoo answers? Oh my gawsh i dont even know why i'm bothering to answer this question.

Answer 2

"God could not create a rock so big he could not lift it, because there is one thing that God cannot do, and that is engage in a falsehood (Titus 1:2). It's the same reason that God cannot make a square circle, or make 2 + 2 = 5, because they are erroneous concepts. "

Answer 3

[021:022] Had there been therein (in the heavens and the earth) gods besides God, then verily, both would have been ruined. Glorified is God, the Lord of the Throne, (High is He) above all that (evil) they associate with Him!

****[021:023] He cannot be questioned as to what He does, while they will be questioned. ********

[021:024] Or have they taken for worship (other) gods besides Him? Say: "Bring your proof. This (the Qur'ân) is the Reminder for those with me and the Reminder for those before me." But most of them know not the Truth, so they are averse.


Peace

Answer 5

Of course, and being all-powerful, he does. That we can't perceive both aspects of reality, or even have trouble conceiving it, does not mean it doesn't exist (kind of like assuming there is no other life in the Universe because we don't immediately have them knocking on our door).
It's more a sign of our own limitations of perception.

This, of course, is not proof. Just a commentary on the presumption of man that they can disprove God with such simple arguments.

Answer 6

"one is often told that it is a very wrong thing to attack religion, because religion makes men virtuous. So I am told; I have not noticed it... You find as you look around the world that every single bit of progress in humane feeling, every improvement in the criminal law, every step toward the diminution of war, every step toward better treatment of the colored races, or every mitigation of slavery, every moral progress that there has been in the world, has been consistently opposed by the organized churches of the world...
My own view on religion is that of Lucretius. I regard it as a disease born of fear and as a source of untold misery to the human race. I can not, however, deny that it has made some contributions to civilization. It helped in early days to fix the calender, and it caused Egyptian priests to chronicle eclipses with such care that in time they became able to predict them. These two services I am prepared to acknowledge, but I do not know of any others" Bertrand Russell

Answer 7

"I want you to know, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, and all ate the same supernatural food and all drank the same supernatural drink. For they drank from the supernatural Rock which followed them, and the Rock was Christ." (1 Corinthians 10:1-4 RSV)

Answer 9

How amazing the human mind is! Wouldn't that be paradoxical? It is obvious, so why ask the question. Is it a show-off parade? We are smart people, too.
