The speaker discusses the concept of "redundancy" and how it can arise when two gods are involved in a situation.

			If you had two gods, then two
things could happen. Either they

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

			agree or they disagree. If they
disagree, then they're not Gods

00:00:06 --> 00:00:09

			because no one could stand in
front of God. Right? Then they

00:00:09 --> 00:00:12

			have a quarrel and fight. Well,
that means there's not omnipotent.

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

			He's not all powerful, right?
There's someone's fighting him and

00:00:15 --> 00:00:19

			struggling against him. And if
they agree, and two gods are

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21

			creating everything at the same
time and working together, then in

00:00:21 --> 00:00:25

			fact, they're redundant. And if
they agree to divide the work,

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

			then they're not all powerful
because you're not doing

00:00:27 --> 00:00:30

			everything. Okay, you got one
doing one part and one another, do

00:00:30 --> 00:00:34

			another part. So logically
speaking, the idea of a God must

00:00:34 --> 00:00:39

			be that there's only one okay.
Otherwise, omnipotence cannot

00:00:40 --> 00:00:44

			gather into two, all powerful
cannot be in to do so. Either they

00:00:44 --> 00:00:47

			share the work they do it
simultaneously or they fight over

00:00:47 --> 00:00:49

			it either way, it denies
omnipotence.
