bravo, friend. you passed Philosophy 101.
some other purely logical problems with the big g theory:
if god created everything, then he must have created himself. for, 'god created everything' translates to 'there is nothing that god did not create'. surely god is something, because if he was not something then he would be nothing...so, god must have created himself, or there are things that god did not create.
if god is all powerful, then surely he must be able to create a rock that he himself cannot lift. but being all powerful means that he can do all things, including things that he can't do, like lift rocks that are too heavy for him to lift. so, can god create a rock that he cannot lift? or, can there even be a rock that god cannot lift, because then he wouldn't be able to do all things...
anyway, there are more, so i salute you! but, i do take offence when you refer to him as being 'my' god. he is not that at all, as i'm an atheist. so, please indicate that your question is actually directed at the christians.

That's like that questions kids ask, "Can God make a boulder so heavy that even He can't lift?" Get a life! He create the world, He can destroy it. He can even destroy the fallen angels, the good angels, the planets, the solar systems, the black holes, etc. He can't destroy Himself. That's it.

He can destroy anything in the blink of his eye. That means us. Yes he can make something he can not destroy, but why would he want to?

He has created a world that He will not destroy, nor will He let us destroy it.

You are no doubt under the impression that you are asking a theological question, when what you are actually doing is confronting a problem in logic.
If X, then not X? is the nature of your question.

Can God create a stone so big that he himself can not lift it.
Can God create a knot so tight that he himself can not un-do it.
These are STUPID questions.

He created Hell and chose to make it a place of eternal destruction.

Yeah we know, and you can't make your bed and lie in it at the same time, you can't have your cake and eat it too ... this is sort of an old question hon.
Before doing a question next time, refer to other questions that have been submitted that are similar :)
