3.) If god is able to limit his omniscience, then he is not actually omniscient - and, therefore, not a god. If he cannot limit his omniscience, then he is not omnipotent - and therefore not a god. Either way your god's existance is an impossibility.
(*A) Should you argue that human logic does not apply to god - by the argument's reflexive properties - you argue you cannot trust your OWN concepts of god - and thus, you have no reason to believe in a god; because, if human logic cannot be trusted, neither can yours. In addition, if you believe your logic of god is trustworthy, but not another human's, you idolize yourself equivilent of a demigod - a feat which is condemned by Judeo-Christian religions and is thus impossible."-Bark.
1. God created the universe.
-Casuality:
Ok here is the simplified version.
a) Every effect has a cause.
b) From nothing comes nothing.
c) Go back as far as you can, logically something had to start it.
d) The something is therefore not an effect, but a timeless cause.
e) That thing is god.
2. "limiting power" is like me throwing a ball.
I can either throw it "fast" or "slow". I limit myself from throwing it at the fastest i can, so that the other guy can catch it.
"limiting omniscience" Isn't possible in the first place. Limiting unlimited knowledge is like saying limiting an unlimited item.
-Unlimited is without limit. To limit it would be impossible.
3. Saying "if he can't limit his power/knowledge" then he is not a God is silly, when by definition thats what makes him God in the first place.
Human logic is in all fairness, evolving.
