Right. Some famous apologists like Aquinas have "answers", but they are cbased on even more ridiculous assumptions about their god

It is the irresistible force that makes the object immovable. Gravity holds it in place.

I don't understand your explanation, Let's put it in a different way. If god is almighty then he can create ant stone and lift any stone, so can he create a stone that he cannot lift?

@norealgod What makes a stone "heavy"? Without gravity we could throw planets like they are grapes. If you are putting a god inti the picture then aren't you in effect, asking him to stop gravity?

I present you with a paradox and you speak about gravity

@norealgod , lol... Its an old paradox and I've had lots of time to think about it. It finally occurred to me that, like many a paradox, it's not really the problem it seems to be. An all-powerful being would just flick off the gravity switch and move the stone easily.

Yes, I think so. Only on their own terms though. I picture a river with rapids. The water and rocks thrive together without changing what they are.
