being all powerful you are choosing to build a door which you yourself cannot open. so yes, you CAN build a door that you can't open because you're essentially determining your own fate.

... DUDE ITS ALL ABOUT CHOICE.. JUST LIKE IN LIFE

Then if you were all powerful you could open the door because there is NOTHING you can't do. Think about it more.

Can you make someone fall in love with you?

Can you cheat death?

Can you avoid taxes?

being all powerful goes beyond just a physical sense. it could also mean having the power to do exactly what you do AND don't what to do. in that sense, the person could build a door which he himself can't open because hes THAT powerful.

ha

in the end there really is no correct answer. philosophy isnt about right answers, just alternate views on situations.

IMO Philosophy is for people that like to argue about who is wrong all the time.

I know im running around in circles, that is what that question is designed to do.....thats why i said it is a great question.

I have a question for you....
If you were so powerful you could do anything..... and your name was Rick James and you made a door that anybody could open except for anyone named Rick James, could you open the door if you didnt change your name?

hey off topic, but winston are you excited about people potentially coming up to you and being like "YOU'RE ON THE TOKYO FLYER" once those flyers are released?

**MC Hammered** · #40 (**permalink**) Dec 02, 04

Well if you were truly omnipotent then why would you put "building a door you can't open" so high on your list of things to do?

That's what i can't figure out... care to enlighten me on this bit?

Answer my question first!

mapleleaf4ever · #46 (**permalink**) Dec 02, 04

If you were all powerful and could do anything you could create a door that will not open for you, but possibly someone else? If you can spawn worlds and avoid the Government a Door should be trivial.

The answer is... you couldn't build a door that y ou can't open. Why wouldn't you put something you can't do at the top of your list. I mean it's the only thing you couldn't do because it completely comtradicts your entier being.

Only_Glory · #48 (**permalink**) Dec 06, 04

even if you are all powerful and you can do everything.... such a door would not exist, and therefor your power would exist, nor yourself.... no god

Kazuma · #49 (**permalink**) Dec 06, 04

That doesn't answer anything.

A door could exsist because you are all powerful and can create anything. How could I not exsist if I am exsisting? Contradiction much?
