Can God do or make anything he wants?
If God can make anything, can he make a heavy stone which he himself could not carry? If he does, than the stone is greater than him.. if he dont, then the statement God can do anything is false..

There are lots of amusing paradoxes like that. If he can't lift it, then he ain't an almighty, invincible being, but if he can't make one like that, then he isn't able to do EVERYTHING.
The solution: by "all powerful," most theists mean that God can do anything that isn't contradictory. God can make it rain and he can make it not rain, but he can't make it be both raining and not raining at the same time (in the same place). He's still all powerful in any useful sense of the term.
God can't contradict Himself, or He would be a liar. He can't do something that would be inconsistent with His own principles and character.

Ummm...you're not allowed to ask that question on here unless you're a top contributor. It's illegal according to federal law and you could get arrested. I would remove this question immediately if I were you.

when we say that God can't do something then we mean he can't do anything negative without a cause.
