But it's not really possible for an omnipotent being to exist, not in the normal meaning of the word "possible". Because for an omnipotent being to exist, everything we know about physics would have to be untrue. That is enough for you to safely conclude it's not possible for an omnipotent being to exist.
You don't get what an omnipotent being is. Omnipotent would mean that it is everything, and it created everything. That means that physics is true, but so is the omnipotent being.

It is more likely that an invisible elephant is in your living room than it is that there an omnipotent being exists. Because an invisible elephant would only violate some of the known rules of physics. An omnipotent being would violate every single one of them.
How so?

So there is only a metaphysical possibility that omnipotent exists, meaning by logic alone you can't 100% exclude the possibility. But by any rational measure, in the normal meaning of the word "possible", it's not possible for an omnipotent being to exist.
And what is this normal meaning of the word possible?
You're "logic" lacks logic. Your statements are vague and don't explain anything. Please if you are going to claim stuff like this, explain in depth.
I could write a book on how a Deity, God, or Source energy is the reason for everything we have today including, physics, science, laws of nature, and so forth.
Possibility to me falls within the logical. That is why there are plenty of things to me that are not possible. However, if you so completely reject the idea that it is possible for anything to exist outside of your own possible perception, then you of course cannot imagine something that necessarily does. If that is what you think, it's kind of hard to discuss it.
Is it possible for someone to survive a fall from an airplane? Is it possible for someone to come back to life?
You have no compassion for God.The God I know talks to me. He performs miracles for me. He is my friend, and he helps me in very incredible ways. He is an omnisient being who comes out of compassion itself. He loves me like a father and a brother. He loves me like a priest would love a child screaming for help.
What are you talking about? Can you read? I wasn't even offending Christianity... I'm Christian. I'm talking about the fanatics that represent Christians in a negative manner... You keep talking about compassion when you have none. Troll somewhere else.
I don't know where you live, but I have never met a family that is very religious that is racist. I have met racists, most claim not to be religious. My cousins are what I consider hardcore Christians. They don't preach to people outside their church. They keep their beliefs for the most part in their home and church. Sure, they do things with the church around town and even go on missions to other countries and build wells and stuff like that. They are far from being racists.
Maybe in the bible belt, but the bible belt is a country of its own. I guess when it comes to religion, your geographical location matters.
DoH, check out my monker here, which is definitely in the buy bull belt, and I could introduce you to any number of bible beating racists, probably even recommend a few churches where you could go hear it preached.

How does God talk to you? IS it voices your hear, is it in your mind? Please give me a few examples. I am not trying to be funny, I am intrigued and curious.

The bible belt is a world of its own. Even without the religious aspect of it, it is one strange place and hope that I never have to go back to any town in it.

I don't believe in a God in the Christian sense. But I think I know what Ball Pean (did I spell that right) is talking about. What I call the Source is close to what Ball might call God. The source speaks to me through my soul, on a level that cannot yet be measured by technology we have today. I know to some of you it sounds far fetched.
The Source - My higher spiritual self. It is similar to a spirit guide or animal I guess.
I don't hear voices, that would be insane. I feel the spirit or source talking to me through my soul or spirit. It's different from the conscious which is widely excepted but, yet to be proven by science. I would love to explain more, but fear it would be too long. PM me if you want to know more.
