This is a great paradox, if God can do anything then surely he can create a rock he couldn't lift but if he couldn't lift it then how is it that he can do anything?

Assuming God exists and is omnipotent, no. Not being able to lift the rock is a negative, and omnipotence can't be affected by negatives. That is to say, it is impossible for anyone to prevent an omnipotent being from doing anything, even the omnipotent being themselves.

Look up into the sky. Plenty big rocks floating around. He created all of them.

i can't believe that fools are still asking this ridiculous question...back when i was a kid (there were still tv shows being filmed in black and white) this was considered old and lame...what is it, some kind of atheism 101 practice question? circular logic only serves to make the empty-headed get dizzy

At this point, as many times as this as been asked, he's got a whole mountain of boulders around him he can't lift...or maybe that was the plan...

No, God already know that we could be understand it. So will not do it and He'll just let us ask strange questions about it.

Why would go do such a thing?
Would you run so fast that your legs would fall off but you would keep running ?
This is an illogical statement. We do not know all which God knows, and are not even close.

He could, and he could lift it. That's what being a God is about, doing illogical things that we human can't comprehend.

If you decide to follow me, together we will remove any heavy rock in our path, but if you don't, any little rock will be heavy enough not to let you continue.....
