Can God create another omniscient & omnipotent being?

Is it possible for God to create another omniscient & omnipotent being? Based on my understanding of the definition of omniscient & omnipotent, it would not be impossible for God to do this and there would be no conflicts with there being two omniscient & omnipotent beings in existence simultaneously.

Yup. Theoretically. Next question?

I think the answer has to do with what you consider “all” to mean. Like “all” knowing, or “all” powerful. Just because god can’t do or know things that are analytically un-doable or un-knowable doesn’t mean he can’t be all knowing and able to do everything. I’m not saying he is, or that he even exists, but you’re really not proving anything except that a proper definition of god, the way religious people understand him, does not work within the confines of the language people use to try and define him. Which I’m sure you no has no impact on the argument of whether he exists or not.

:laughing: no way can God create another of himself because that would defeat the purpose duh :laughing:

So you’re saying god can’t do something? Not that he won’t, but that he can’t.

when did i say this? i never said that :smiley:

here’s what i said (deal with what i say)…

your statement is false on infinitely many levels…notice that i say “can” while you say i say “can’t”

HtH, I dealt with EXACTLY what you said.

Would you like to rethink that response?

The opposite of can is can’t. Saying, “No way you can do that” is another way of saying “You can’t do that.” Is English your first language?

Ugh, here we go. Another thread where HtH tries to prove his superiority by confusing the issue in a semantic battle that makes absolutely no sense. Can you ever stay on topic?

Anyway, in response to the OP, assuming God is real, omniscient, and omnipotent, I’d agree with cheegster and say yes, theoretically God could create another being like himself.

:laughing: Yes HtH, keep posting it. Keep showing us your mistake.

double post

lol…you’re the one that spoke to me…i suggest that if you do not want to speak to me than you do not…remember no one is forcing you to speak to me- it is you that continues to pursue conversations with me…also my response was directly referred to the op and was directly answering the op’s question…please refrain from making false accusations as this can be taken as a form of harrassment as well

God bless
-hth

what mistake did i make? please do tell?

God bless
-hth

What are you TALKING about?

I already did –

HtH, your personal issues with me need to be laid to rest. See, this is a forum. The way forums work is this – someone creates a topic, and idea or question they’d like to discuss, and then people respond. Sometimes, other people respond to those responses, rather than the OP. That is called “discussion”. Sometimes it is necessary, during these “discussions”, to argue semantics, but in this case it’s pretty cut and dried. Why not just respond with your reasoning as to why god would be unable to create another being like himself?

Come on now hth you have to say that you got done on this one fair and square. ‘No way can…’ is literally exactly the same sentiment as ‘can’t’.

it is not an argument of “sentiment”…thats what you and blurred savant i would assume do not realize…it is about dealing with what people exactly say and not having to change their words into your own…this in itself allows me to say that what she said is “literally” not what i said…therefore you are both now false…you should know cheegster that i do not make statements that are false.

God bless

= can’t.

helptheherd,

In the English language, stating that something in “no way can” do something, is the same as stating that it “can not” do something, which arrives at the contraction of “can’t” do something.
You are needlessly causing side-tangent arguments over nothing related to the discussion.

Either stop arguing syntax that is markedly incorrect to the standard English language and apply to the conversation coherently, leave the conversation, or let me be forced to serve a warning to get the point across about the value of effective communication.
Your choice.

If He could, He’d have done so. And if He could have, He wouldn’t have needed to create the universe to spawn us sentient creatures with free will.

I suspect (if He exists), that if He tried it, He would only have created another of Himself which would have been instantly recombined with the original. If you’re already everything that is or can be, how could something else be more? Since God is the one, whole Truth :sunglasses: , there can’t be two…one whole Truths. They’d be the same thing. How can two entities both be omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent without being One? Unlike the duality in the nature of “His” universe, with a yen for every yang, He can have no mate…no equal companion…

…Holy!..

Could an infinite number of souls, from an infinite number of universes, tested by free will, possibly combine to form such a “companion”…one from many completing the One Already Whole.

God +

?

Until now, my model was souls being combined into God. May be the same thing. Gonna have to think about it. The key word is companion.
