Can an omnipotent being creatre a stone it cannot lift?
If it can then it is not omnipotent because it cannot lift the stone, if it cannot then it is not omnipotent because it cannot create the stone.

There are Christians who rejoice at the image of God as an omnipresent Hitler, favoring those who praise him and meting out torture and mass murder to those who do not, as fr0d0's example above shows.Utter tosh caused by wilfull blindness, I presume.
