Could God make a burrito so big even he could not eat it?

No, but He could make a burrito so large it would give Him indigestion I’ll wager. He would only be able to eat the whole burrito after calling forth a Cola* from the void to wash it down. He might also gather to Him some Tums or something.

Is the Lord a Coke guy or a Pepsi guy? What if hes a <gasp> RC guy? :eek:

This is the best answer to this question I’ve ever heard. And when someone says, “That answer doesn’t make any sense,” just say, “Neither does the question.”

I like gex gex’s solution. Also, any god that makes big-ass burritos is OK in my book.

In a universe that required deductive logic as we understand it, “an irresistable force meeting an immovable object” doesn’t compute anyway. So the request is pretty much meaningless.

God could bend those rules for just a bit, though, to show you. But it ain’t pretty. :slight_smile:

But what if God doesn’t even need to eat? (I’m not even going to go the "But what if there isn’t a God) route.

I think that if we accept an omnipresent god then eating the burrito is meaningless. As it is created is already a part of god.

God would create the burrito impossible to eat. Then, with a booming voice, decree the burrito possible to eat.

Not that God would eat it, mind you. God would most certainly share. :slight_smile:

He’s not sharing all those magic powers, why would he share the burrito? In fact, if he was really all merciful and stuff, he’d give us the power to create super-burritos from thin air. Now that would be useful.

Not only would God share his burrito’s with us, I bet he’s got some “made to order” place up in Heaven with every type of Combo-burrito you can think of available and waiting to match each burrito to a name :slight_smile:

Perhaps there’s only one type of God Burrito, but it has the property of becoming whatever you want it to taste like, even to the point of abtraction: “I want this burrito to taste even better than the perfect burrito I just had.”

I think you’d find it would be beef, bean and cheese.

Misunderstanding of the term I think; Omnipresence doesn’t imply that all things are part of God, only that there is nowhere (that is a place) where he isn’t. As God isn’t material, he can occupy the same space as matter (I suppose), although it would probably be more accurate (in terms of theology) to say that he is present everywhere by virtue of not being limited to ordinary space

But would it be a kosher burrito?

Oh please. Would you trust the super-burrito power to most of the people you know? I wouldn’t. The world would be overrun by super-burritos because people would just pop them out and not finish them, and instead of saving the leftovers, just toss them and create another superburrito before the leftovers decomposed. Soon we would all be buried in burritos. Nay, it is a sign of God’s wisdom and foresight, and proof of his existence, that humans cannot make superburritos out of thin air.

The key issue is what would be the result IF God ate it?

Omnipresent gas? And would the smell be supernatural?

That is great you crack me up.

Heck no, gazpacho. The burrito would HAVE to have some chile con carne or pico.

I cannot possibly imagine a God who doesn’t like burritos. It’s a simple step up from ambrosia.

OK Mangetout, so if I understand you then the OP is akin to asking how many radio waves I can eat?

I guess we won’t know the answer until we solve The Diameter of God’s Mouth and the Length of God’s Digestive Tract.

God’s small intestine would wrap around the known universe five times! :eek:

It occurs to me that I am not sure what Mangetout is referring to. I was thinking it was about the series of threads about why there are beef and bean burritos or bean and cheese burritos but not beef and bean and cheese burritos in super markets. But maybe instead it is a reference to Kosher diets.

Soup_du_jour just so long as they don’t put rice in. Man I hate it when they put rice in.

But back to the OP. I think that these could God paint himself into a corner type of questions really are asking what the heck does it mean to be all powerful.
