ahh - I see your point... If you can do anything, you can do something that
you can't undo [1]. But once you did that, you could still undo it [2],
therefor you faild to do it right the first time. (since you could undo it,
even when you weren't supposed to). Doesn't that mean that you cannot say "God
can do anything" since it contradicts itself?
(Sorry if this was covered in previous months debats - I've just recently
started to actually read lugnet [3]:)
:)
Dan
[1] that's a something, so you should be able to do it.
[2] cause that would be something too.
[3] and I admit, it's addictive and a lot of fun..
