However, each entity has an identity. Aristotle figure this out in his Law of Identity: A is A. Very important. A turd is a turd, not something else. A god is a god, not something else.

A turd is not a god because a turd has certain properties and gods do not. A chair is not a hotel. Each entity has its own properties.

A turd is not a god, but a god can sure be one hell of a turd when he throws a hissy fit.

My point was that once you allow an all powerful being into your scheme of things then a turd is no longer a turd. It could be a god. I could be a god. Anything could be a god. It is the logical equivalent of division by zero. It is not allowed because it results in nonsense.

An all powerful being can be A and ~A and as can be shown in symbolic logic, when you have A and ~A you can prove anything like B and ~B are both true.
