If God is all-powerful, can He create a rock so heavy He can't lift it?

A

Expert Answer

This is the omnipotence paradox. If God can create such a rock, He's not omnipotent (can't lift it); if He can't create it, He's not omnipotent. Most theologians resolve this by saying omnipotence doesn't include logical contradictions—it's about doing what's logically possible.
