Evangelical Christianity is riddled with logical contradictions,
Ummm. No it's not. If you believe you have found one please do post it as a thorough logical arguement, listing *all* of your assumptions, and I will happily tell you which of your assumptions I disagree with. (He says in the hope that you haven't suddenly come up with some stunning new proof)
Out of interest, are you happy with what is wrong with this arguement (or do you think it is a valid argument against God's omnipotence?):
"Can good make a rock big enough so that he cannot lift it?"
If the answer is no the is something God cannot do. If the answer is yes the is something God cannot do. So God can't be omnipotent.
I ask, as I feel at some stage I might want to show that other arguments are equivalent to that, so would be helpful now to agree with a simple example that such arguments are invalid.
