so if god creates rock so heavy that it can't lift it, its hand just passes through the rock? makes sense.
No that doesn't make sense. The thing you're alluring at is a classical thought experiment showing contradiction in allmightiness.
P1: God is Almighty, meaning he can do anything
Therefore he must be able to create a stone he can't lift. But then there is something he can't do: Either he can not lift the super stone, or he can not create a super stone that he can't lift.
lol I am not alluring to anything I am just giving a xkcd twist to this well known paradox
.. it's 'alluding', y'all
I don't know, heavy things attract other things, so maybe it is alluring ;)
