The gist of the argument was that nothing is faster than the speed of light, therefore an omnipotent God doesn't exist because the speed of light is a limit.

That's what the articles were about. Now you're restricting it to just information.

I did not restrict it to just information. Reading comprehension is your friend. If that is what the articles are about then it should be easy for you to find a quote that disagrees with my statement above. Inflation doesn't disagree with the Theory of relativity. In fact inflation precisely sets the limits of what can be seen. 45 billion light years away is our event horizon, nothing can be seen or known beyond that. If that isn't a limitation for your God I don't know what is.

Since you're as vocabulary challenged as you are science challenged....

omnipotent: having virtually unlimited authority or influence

Ahh, your definition of omnipotent is different than mine (almighty or infinite in power). Your God is limited 'virtually' (1 : almost entirely : nearly) stunted so to speak. Since you agree that your God is limited, I will agree also : )

omnipresent: present in all places at all times

If someone is present everywhere at all times, they don't need to travel anywhere to get anywhere so the speed of light is irrelevant to God and you have not disproved God's existence.

If that is the case then everything is God. I am God then so why are you arguing with me? Are you my sock puppet?

Said LeGrande:The gist of the argument was that nothing is faster than the speed of light, therefore an omnipotent God doesn't exist because the speed of light is a limit.

LeGrande, While it would take faith to believe that something could move faster then the speed of light in vacuum because nothing's ever been demonstrated to move faster then the speed of light in vacuum, your assertion (that nothing is faster then the speed of light) is purely dogmatic and as such simply does not prove the non-existence of anything, not even God. (Nor does it prove the existence of anything.)

But I guess this dogmatic ill logic of yours is the same reason you'd ask us to believe that a stationary heavenly body 12 light hours away above the equator would appear in the east while it was really to the west to an observer on the earth, at any instant in time...! [grin]
