God Doesn't Exist: A Proof
Assume for the sake of argument that God exists. Now it follows from the definition of God that God is omnipotent; that is, he can do anything. In particular, he can create an immovable object, by which I mean an object that neither he, nor anyone else, can ever move.
Now having created this immovable object, the question is, can God then move the object that he has just created? There are two possibilities. Either he can move the object, or he can't move the object. If he can move the object, then the object wasn't immovable, a contradiction. If he can't move the object, then there's something that God can't do, which means that he's not omnipotent, again a contradiction.
So we see that the hypothesis that God exists leads to a contradiction. Therefore, the hypothesis must be false. Therefore, God doesn't exist.

Post a Commentyour blackhole theory does no work you see a blackhole swallows all but the amount it swallows to the amount the univers grows in unbalanced you see the black hole can only swallow so much but the univers is constantly expanding making it more difficult for the blackhole to swallow the universe and allthough a black hole can swallow the universe it cant distroy it for it shouts out quazars
That is a fallacy, like saying
1) a black hole swallows all
2) therefore a black hole should not exist because they are not absorbed himself disappear.
Rather, this is a proof against omnipotence directly, a quality often ascribed to god.
