Can the omnipotent God create a stone which he(she?) him(her?)self Cannot carry?

(In reply to
I have a logical answer. ^_^ by Creshosk)
Silly me, double posting, I should have read the other comments first and included my reply in my only post. O well
Now to get to the point: If rock A was bigger than everything else, and now Rock B is bigger than rock A, then rock B must be bigger than everything else, then, under your argument, Rock B must be unliftable. He's just ended up creating a new unliftable rock...until he makes Rock C, which is even bigger than rock B. Now rock B is liftable...but Rock C isn't. Your answer is a paradox...unless he eventually makes a rock identical in size to the current largest, say Rock C and Rock D are identical in size and both tie for largest in the Universe (Multiverse?). He can lift Rock C from Rock D and Rock D from Rock C. No more paradox, and you get an answer of no. So now I direct you to my previous post, where I state why its yes, not no, and I use an awful lot of S/He's instead of he's in the process.
