I once was asked this question 10 years ago or so and it took me 7 to realize that the question is flawed. "Can God make a rock so big that he cannot lift it?"
Asking the questions assumes that God is a being that does things. We don't know what God is but we like to think we do. That question implies something that tricks the mind. It's almost like asking, "does your mom know you're an alien?" If you answer no, you admit that you're an alien. If you answer yes, the same is true. But are you an alien?

.


The Jewish people fled and the Red Sea did open and allow the Jewish people through it then closed and killed the soldiers by drowning them with the Red Sea closing on them .

Is it possible that that was a hoax ? Did all the soldier's families imagine that , or made it up , or did it really happen and seen and known by millions and millions and all the Jewish people who saw that were in a lie ?

How could our history and all the Romans and Jewish make this up ?

Surely it must of happened because it is written not just by the Jewish but from the other side too , the families of the soldiers who died in the Red Sea knew this did happen because they lost their loved ones in that event .

What in the world does that have to do with the OP?

I never heard there were other accounts of Moses parting the sea other than the Bible. can you give a few references?

"'Can God make a rock so big even He can't lift it?'
Come on does God want the rock to move?
This is a statement about can we ever really realize that we are God. Will we be able to pass through walls? Or fly, walk on water,heal the sick? We don't really want to know the whole truth. This place could be a brief interlude away from an eternity of loneliness.

These kinds of questions and the ways we answer them illustrate to this humble observer how gods are creations of our minds and are nothing that has any other causes except in our minds.

Isn't the earth a big rock just 'floating' out in space?

PLus if you want to get more terrestrial, and if you wanted to say that god was the cause of everything (not my personal idea for the way of things, but to speak to the general xtian populous I will generalize), including wind, bodies of water, the land we walk on, etc.

Then what of glaciers moving massive boulders? If you were to walk in the woods in New England it would not take very long to come upon a said boulder just chilling in the middle of a field. With no reason for it to be there, as the geological history of the area doesn't technically support it. They were deposited by huge ice sheets from the ice age.

Plate tectonics also technically move huge sheets of rock over layers of magma around the earths core.

And as the father from "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" would say: 'So, There you go.'

Maybe God is the result of all things =-)

I, rather painfully, came to the same feeling .
