Title: It's raining cats, dogs, and Democrats
Post by alien2 on Jul 18th, 2018, 10:53am
1. Prove that I am God.
2. Can you prove that I am not God? - - - SOLVED by dudiobugtron
3. Two witty American friends are discoursing.

— Are you a communist?
— Absolutely!
— Ha! But I know you to be a democrat!

But then 2nd friend replies proving 1st friend to be ultimately wrong. What was his reply? and, you ‘re allowed to paraphrase it. Have fun!

According to some religions, God is everything and everyone.  Even you.

According to other religions, you are not God.

I guess it depends on your perspective.  According to my perspective, sufficiently powerful aliens would be indistinguishable from God - so in that case you may as well be.

As for the third riddle:

[hide]The second friend replies: "According to your beliefs, all democrats are communist."  The first friend concedes, "True, you got me there. All Hail Donald Trump and Alex Jones."[/hide]

I can't get no satisfaction, or at least, regarding these guesses of Yours. However, 3rd riddle is suspicious, that is to say, I wonder if it does hold water, and so you're allowed for a little latitude. As per 1st and 2nd, the former has a catch whilst the latter is pretty much straightforward. For all we know God is a blimp or a wacky riddler. See what I mean?

1) If it is possible to prove that you are God, then you must be God.  Q.E.D.
If it is not possible to prove that you are God, then the riddle is impossible.

So, either I have just proved that you are God, or, I don't have to.

2) [hide]The answer is: No.[/hide]

Yay! I mean, whatever. For some reason I don't feel like God. Perhaps demigod. Not at the moment, let me tell you. So, 2nd riddle is solved, with a touch of uncertainty likewise mystery on our hands in the air.

However, I've entirely different idea/approach/intended answer regarding the 1st riddle and altogether a somewhat unexpected one, but then again, a bit shallow as well.

The clue for the 1st riddle: It can be proven! LOL.

As per validity of 3rd riddle I do have my reservations. Sorry 'bout that.

Nobody can deny it*.  Ergo it must be true.

I can deny it*.  Divinity of God cannot be denied.  Ergo you are not God.

"I am Chuck Norris!".  (which incidentally is related to 1. and 2.)


(*)I hereby claim: "You are not God!".  See?  I can.

Something along the lines of innocent unless proven guilty? And yet, perhaps you ought to consider the Afro-American way. Yep, this was a hint.

As per the 3rd riddle: forget 'bout it. I'm sorry, did I break your concentration? Was there something more you wanted to add? Yep, this was a hint regarding the 3rd riddle.

As per Chuck, I believe he is demigod. Still, never mind - - - as long as he can deliver a kick. Just not to me.

Nobody can prove that I AM God. Alright Nobody! Well then. This is a cause to rejoice. And what is your reword, you ask? Well then, another riddle, perhaps? No? Hmm. Christina Aguilera? Are you trying to say, that she is more important to you than God!? How dare you! To hell! To hell!

Actually, It's God who is a semichuck norris.

The thought struck me that one implied the other. But then I realized it depends on whether they're the same size.

Not necessarily. When confronted with a giant just kick him in the *****.

Oh, I see. When compared to Chuck, God is a Hobbit? Well then. Bilbo Baggins! May I enter heaven!? Unless it is Shire. To small a place for me. As a guest I'd be hitting my head like Gandalf all the time.

Perhaps a mirror will assist you. Yep. Pretty shallow.
