Quote:The rules of logic are all that there is. The illogical is not a realm of limitless possibilities, because the illogical does not exist. What exists is all that there is. We can dream of the illogical, but the illogical cannot be done because it is not real.
Quote:To say that there are rules that cannot be circumvented would imply there is a higher authority than God, which is illogical in this case and therefore nonexistent. Omnipotence means that one can do anything, or all there is TO do. If there is something that cannot be done because it does not exist, then it does not constitute an uncrossable limit, because that would mean there would have to be something on the other side.The ital coexisting with the bolded in one mind is whats causing this trainwreck. So which sword would you rather fall on, that the rules of logic are all that is, that the illogical is not real - or that "god" is not subject to those rules and that the "rules of logic" are, ultimately, meaningless in the face of said "god"?
I myself don't suffer any sort of "willful deviation from good", nor do I need any prompting from your fairy to do good. Trying to tighten the "good/god" circle will only elicit laughs from me. Why would "god" doing contradictory things or having contradictory attributes be a problem, logic holds no authority over "god" (unless it does after all).
If refusing to be a party to your disgusting little redemption story is what lands a guy in the eternal slammer, so be it. This doesn't paint "god" in a very flattering light in any case.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
