>>23262872the law of identity states that "a thing is itself."
that 1=1, or more formally A is A.
the multiplication of loaves and fishes doesn't violate that principle, it's not claiming that one loaf is simultaneously one loaf and also multiple loaves.
it's describing a transformation or multipilcation event, not a contradiction in idenitty.
miracles like that challenge our understanding of causality and natural law, but they don't violate logical coherence. if they did, they wouldn't be miracles, they'd be nonsense. that's the distinction i've been trying to draw. suspending physical laws is not the same as violating logical principles.
if you think the biblical portrayal of God implies a kind of omnipotence that does include logical contradictions, i'd be interested to hear how that's supported scripturally or philosophically.
note that most atheist philosophers concede that omnipotence wouldn't imply the ability to do impossible actions. (which i guess wasn't what you were really arguing earlier? i actually have no idea what your point was now)
