It's nice to know that mental institutions allow patients access to the internet to keep them busy. I just wish they hadn't pointed their web browser in the direction of AF.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

But joking aside, what is Christian's answer to the rock paradox? That God is not limited by the laws of logic?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

A common defense is that God IS limited by the laws of logic, and that it's not actually a limitation of omnipotence, properly understood, to not be able to create married bachelors or square circles, or rocks too heavy for an omnipotent being to move.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Is it even a vertical and a horizontal one at once before we open the box?

Yea kinda makes sense. Any consistent definition of omnipotence would exclude paradox acts...

The one I've seen around is that "God" can make a rock that it can't lift, and then promptly lift it. Absurd, I know, but such is fanwank.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

As a side note, how cool would it be if "Quantum mechanic" became an actual job description.

PGJ, you make my scroll finger tired.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
