  • God's omnipotence is stretched in time
    Very interesting information, thank you for it.
  • God's omnipotence is stretched in time

    Ducat is very simple and material thing. But who defined what is God by some obvious way?
  • God's omnipotence is stretched in time
    I always say that existing or not existing of God is just question of defining of this term.
  • God's omnipotence is stretched in time
    God or just nature or universe are all names of one thing. Who don't believe in God just calls it by other name...
  • God's omnipotence is stretched in time
    God in us and we are part of God. All that we do, God also do by our hands.

    Why do you think so, tim? God still God, but this universe rules doesn't allow any magic. To make or change something you need to go through all intermediate states. Even to go from point A to point B you need to make some path which connects this points. I don't speak that this is religion, but it is philosophy.

    Really I very discouraged that nobody can't understand how simple and elegant this dialog:
    - Could God create a stone so heavy that even He could not lift it?
    - Yes, he can. It will take eternity.
    All conditions of the question-trap is completed. God will create the stone, he never will lift it and he really never will able do it because the job will not done full eternity. But he is God and lives out of time. So he just lift it once when eternity ends...

    You are absolutely right, Tom. God cannot contradict logic. And maybe law of noncontradiction is the single law which works even out of our universe. In the beginning of times when God have created laws of physics in our universe they already started to work and he couldn't cancel it or make anything contradict to these laws.
    Many many years past before humans was created and God would be glad to make them once with knowledge of all laws of universe. But it was just impossible. Instead of it God made feelings and if human hear it and acts accordingly to it, he feels happy. But human is too limited in his mind thing. And he very prone to as I call it "last bit error". Human can fully rightly understand the situation but just in the last moment do false conclusion. It is always looks like answer on a question yes or no. E.g. in China they tried to kill all sparrows to save harvest or in Africa they tried to kill all elephants to save the soil from devastation. In both examples human made false conclusion about flow of process. Human still far from understanding all laws of universe. But some people already starts to understand more than other. When all people will understand his nature deseases and children deaths will be stopped but it will take time...
