Answer the questions, Bob. You revel in making fun of Jesus and
Christianity, of my God, so why is it you duck off when I ask about your
god, Bob?
<reinsert>
You're correct, Bob. In the miniscule world you wish to place "god", in
your consistent attempts to define a supernatural being in the same
language you would a spaghetti recipe, in your self-centered pride that
allows you to justify your criticisms of a supernatural "god", yes, Bob,
your "god" IS incapable of damn near most anything.
My God, otoh, is capable of everything and anything and, imo, is so very
far past my even most expansive understanding of Him, I don't even have
much more than a glimpse of His abilities.
I must assume, your "god" created nothing at all much less the Universe,
the Heavens and all that is in it. If he did, them all of a sudden, he is
incapable of discerning free will inside his plan for mankind?
But your god didn't and hasn't done much of anything as far as I can see.
Would you like to tell us about your "god", this mysteriously limited
whatever that does, well, what *does* your god do, Bob?
