Re: Interesting Mathematical Paradoxes

Are these problems actually paradoxes, or just mathematical slight of hand?

It's the old answer - God can't make a square circle. He has no choice but to be righteous because that's His nature - His absoluteness doesn't mean He can do that which violates His...

God is governed by Himself, by His nature. He loves the good and hates sin. In a sense He has no choice about that because He can't deny Himself.

Re: God\'s emotions

It does bring up the interesting question, of whether God is perfectly rational or does his emotions override fairness/justice.

Since that has not been proven in the laboratory, it is merely an article of faith, not science.

Re: God\'s emotions
