Musings about omnipotence and perfection.

[reverendjeremiah]

Omnipotence and perfection - two words that were just made up that have no bearing on measurable reality whatsoever and focuses SOLELY on the imaginations of the person using them. These two words were created for the sole purpose of being able to push the goal post back further and further to justify further useless and absurd bickering in the hopes of bamboozling the other person into accepting the bamboozlers personal preferences of whatever pet peeve or petty psychological need the user feels should be addressed and acknowledged.

-Pet peeve example
"Dont put that trash can there..you should put it here..there, thats perfect!"

-Psychological need example
fundy -"God loves me and he loves you and he knows your inner most feelings"
me -"I know Im probably going to kick myself for asking..but exactly how did you come to that conclusion?"
fundy -"Because god is all knowing! Isnt that great."
me - "Wonderful..then your god can tell the police who it was who raped and murdered that local kid a few years ago and help give the family some closure!"
fundy - "It doesnt work that way..blah blah. John 3:16..blah blah..thou shalt not test god..blah blah Free will..blah blah."
Me - *kicks self for asking*

File the terms "Omnipotent" and "Perfection" with others of its ilk..such as: "Eternity", "infinity", "infinitesimal", and "soul".
