    You just replaced the word “paradox” incorrectly with strawman. Your issue is understanding what paradox means. The paradox stands. You also dont understand the full possibilities of “all powerful” since you keep applying things that couldn’t be done by an all powerful being. If there is anything a being cannot do, then they are, by definition, not all powerful.

      I understand it very well but you seem to not understand that there is such a thing as syntactical garbage that means nothing. What you’ve done is gone and applied “all powerful” to mean the realization of possibilities which cannot exist. It seems like you really wanna push that definition upon people so you can claim God is paradoxical and thus ridiculous. But your position is just as ridiculous as someone saying that an apple can both exist and not exist at the same time.

        No, you don’t. Especially since you swapped it for a strawman which you also dont understand. This, just like the definition of a paradox, isn’t up for debate. This paradox has existed for thousands of years and predates the Christian god itself. You are not “magically” smarter than the greatest philosophers of history, you are just far more arrogant.

        Cheers bud.

          And you bud seem to like to run with the authority fallacy instead of deconstructing my argument and showing it as false. A beacon of intelligence.

            Coming from the person that thinks they are smarter than all of the collective philosophers from the past 2000 years. Rich.

                You know how Terrance Howard insists he knows that 1x1=2 and that he knows better than all of the greatest mathematicians in the world? That’s you right now.

                They’ve all pondered the “obvious paradox” that you see right through. If you think “it isn’t a paradox at all it is just syntax mumbo jumbo” then you obviously think yourself to be smarter than them. That’s basic inference, any philosopher of your caliber would accept that basic logic

                  Keep digging yourself deeper and just citing some other philosopher as if they’re infallible instead of engaging with my arguments. If you have nothing to say of substance then stop wasting my time

                    I already refuted your “arguments” and repeating them won’t change anything Terrance. You aren’t going to make 1x1=2.

                    What’s more likely, you figured something out that philosophers have pondered for millennia, or you just can’t quite grasp the concept?

                    Come on Terrence, grow up. Just a little.
