If the devil appeared to you and offered to answer any 3 questions, what would you ask?

Omnipotence means you can do literally anything, and anything includes having perfect control of your powers without knowing how to use them. It also includes the ability to continue to interact and exist as an omnipotent being even if you were completely, utterly, 100% destroyed.

If you were omnipotent, you could just decide that every action you take will benefit you in some way and then, it doesn't matter what you do, you're doing the right thing. You could even just choose not to lose yourself in your newfound power.

You don't have to know how to do something to do it when you're omnipotent. You don't even have to know the option to do it exists to choose that option. Because omnipotence means the ability to do literally anything, even when it makes no logical sense.

Of course, none of this makes logical sense. It doesn't have to, because omnipotence isn't a scientific concept or anything. It's a word we chose to define in a contradictory way. It's like if we made a new word that means "somebody who can do things they're completely incapable of doing." Not even really a paradox so much as a word whose definition makes no sense.

The weirdest part to me is that an omnipotent being must, by necessity, have the ability to create a being with powers exceeding omnipotence. Something more powerful than them. But they must also have the ability to overpower their creation, otherwise there'd be something they can't do, and they would therefore not be omnipotent. That's just a mindboggling thing to think about.

And here I thought the Jewish faith didn’t have an afterlife?

So much conflicting information in this religion thing. I think I’ll just avoid it all together.

Dunno. I haven't studied it; all my info comes from informal conversations with a jewish friend of mine, a long time ago. I could also be misremembering what he said.

It's something I would look into, if faced with confirmation of a judao-christian afterlife, especially if I could concurrently cover multiple bases. I'd look at Islam, as well; could be they're not mutually exclusive. I dread to think of how limited my diet would become... but faced with an ensured eternity in hell ¯(ツ)/¯

My first thought for the first one is that a malicious devil will just reply that n=1.

"I hope this has been enlightening for you."

"But I must-"

"Thank you, come again."

"But-"

"Thank you, come again."

By most accounts the devil is a lot of talk and very little (physical) action. If anything he fiddled someone else to diddle a little kiddle.

I grew up partially in the south, and the devil tales from there told a story of people constantly getting over on him in the forms of bets and contests, the devil doing a monkeys paw type wish/curse, and it being turned around by the receiver of the curse/wish to ultimately being a good thing. Like a very awkward super hero whose power is to grant wishes, but has to lose to that person in some way first.

Ok I'll bet small on my next spin then I'll bet my life savings since I have an increased chance of winning(if you lose your last 50/50 you are more likely to win the next one)
