It's been awhile since I wrote something but with everything going on I haven't had time to write... despite having ample content...
However, today I am writing this solution to the Omnipotence Paradox because I need to write it somewhere to be recorded for Copyright - according to what I have read.
The Omnipotence Paradox
The Omnipotence Paradox is a Logical Argument that, at its fundamental level, states: If there is a God who is Omnipotent, they can do anything - but if they can't... they're not Omnipotent and thus not worthy of being a God and/or invalidates a Religion.
The most common version I have heard:
The "Solution":
I was heating up lunch the other day, probably about two weeks ago at this point and I had a "Eureka" moment.
I wasn't pondering this particular question, nor had I given any thought to the matter recently... but as I was waiting for the microwave, a thought emerged from the recesses of my mind STRAIGHT INTO MY FRONTAL CORTEX.
"The problem and thus solution to the Omnipotence Paradox is that the question is framed in a static manner. As if one thing must happen and then in that precise moment either with a yes/no answer, Omnipotence is determined.
The solution, is quite simple.
So let us ask: Can God create and object so heavy He Himself cannot lift it.
The answer is - OF COURSE, He is Omnipotent.
The Paradox relies on the answer being in that one moment and nothing further but that is not how things work.
God, being Omnipotent, could in fact make an object so heavy He could not lift it... and then in the very next instance change the Laws of Universe so that He could quite easily lift it.
Thus satisfying the Paradox.
God creates an Object He can't lift. THEN He changes the Laws of the Universe. Then He lifts it."
Being Omnipotent would allow for this to happen easily and in fact, upon further reflection there would not need to be any time lapse between the two, much like a Particle-Wave Function. Until observation, the Particle-Wave Function exists in BOTH conformations Wave and Particle - until it collapses into one under observation.
Schrodinger's Omnipotence right?
Anyway - I was floored by this and I ran it through Chat GPTs "Logic Engine" and it said the Logic was sound 😃
Wild.
I'll probably submit this somewhere as it may be important to someone... somehow... for something... at some point in time.
Cheers 🍻,
