I think of course he could lie, but
why would he have to (He should
be- excuse me-"above that").
If he lies about his own existence
reminds me of "I think (speak)
therefore I am". Another thing
comes to mind from an old George
Carlin skit: "If God is all powerful
can he make a rock so big that he
himself can't lift it?" Sounds like a
pointless waste of bandwidth.
Gimme back my Lego.
