Hello everyone
I am a young man, barely twenty and three years of age, and I live in Norway. Here I go about my own business; writing, watching films, paints and other activities of the creative sort. I am not exactly sure how I found Wikipedia, but it is a great site, full of useful and interesting knowledge.

There are, however, certain things about this site that annoy me, more specifically the texts concerning philosophy, the nature of god, and a handful of other articles. I do not stop reading them midway when i notice them - I always finish what I read - but there are certain things that are so blatantly lacking of insight that I am forced to feel sorry for the human race and its way of thought. I'll give you an example: the article concerning Omnipotence, specifically the paragraph Paradoxes of Omnipotence, where it is speculated that Can God create a rock so heavy that even he cannot lift it? If he can, then the rock is now unliftable, limiting God's power. But if he cannot, then he is still not omnipotent. What a one-sided way of thinking. Well, if God really could create this immensly heavy rock, why would he do it in the first place? If God is omnipotent, and he knows it, he does not need to greate the rock, because he knows that he can choose not to. As the creator of free will, he certainly must have some of it himself. And what need would God have of such a brutish display of power. Because that is not what God is all about. It does not matter if he is omnipotent or not. My personal belief is that God is only as powerful as we believe him to be. Most religious people concider God to be All-Mighty (I.E. omnipotent), and because they believe this, they provide God with the power. Belief alone is the agent that provides God the ability to move the mountain.
