Evidence for God being "a superior being" ?

[fr0d0]

So fr0d0 seems to think the following:

1. God is omnipotent.

and

2. God cannot do various things (lie, commit evil) that humans can do.

Well that would be wrong. But then you insist on looking at something logical illogically, I don't know why.

The statement is fallatious.

Omnipotent, all powerful (from the Latin: Omni Potens: "all power") - is the draining of/ the taking away of power also power? It seems you require this to be so. But that doesn't make it so does it?

So... an all powerful being can only be powerful, and not anti powerful, as that would be contradictory. If you care to think about the construct of the god idea you may notice that it is entirely positive. Obviously omnimax does not entail self destruction.

As far as I can tell, this is gibberish. I really have no idea at all what most of this is supposed to mean, if anything.

But then, on reflection, the whole concept of omnipotence may be gibberish too. Perhaps any definition of omnipotence turns out to be self-contradictory.

So no refutation then.

Let me try again, as I don't believe you're being deliberately dense.

If we had an unlimited power source - say electrical. What would that mean logically? Maybe we assume 1. It won't run out & 2. it's has infinite force.

What's missing using the descriptor 'unlimited'?

Yep... lack of force & of limited duration.

So to frame this in parallel with your dismissal of omnipotence: this unlimited force is not unlimited because it isn't the opposite of unlimited.

Is that clearer?
