could god create a stone he couldnt lift?

Hello jason1287, The concept of weight is for humans, not for GOD. even for humans, weight is a relative thing. I can lift a 1000 ton stone...? GOD is free from human traits. So, I would submit that this question has no genuine basis. what do you think?

I think that the proper, logical answer to your question is that there is not, nor can there be, a stone that God cannot lift. That doesn't imply that God is less than omnipotent because the very question you ask is tacitly based on the assumption that God is man-like and therefore has limitations. The statement 'God is like man' is logically different from the statement 'Man is made in the image of God'. A portrait may be said to be like the sitter but you would hardly say that the sitter is like a photograph, painting or sculpture.

If God is omnipotent he has all potencies, thus he has both finite and infinite potencies. Thus with his infinite potencies he could create a stone so heavy he would be unable to lift it with his finite potencies. Therefore the answer is yes. A better question might be can God make a round square, i.e. can he do the logically impossible. To answer this one must understand what logic is. The first question to ask then, is this. Is logic about a way we think or about the way things are related in the world? all the best urban

Since the question falls outside of logical reasoning I would not like to try to answer. It's in a way similar to Can God sin? Can God exist and not exist at the same time? Anyway, good to read different responses.
