God can do anything. Can He commit suicide? Omnipotent Paradox explained.

Suicide only appears in transactional reality. So as I see it, God can commit suicide in transactional reality as a result of ignorance of his nature...ignorance of being God. This is evidenced with each human that takes their own life. However, God cannot commit suicide in full awareness of its own being.

Could God be unaware of His who and what He is? Surely not if He is God.

The weight of a stone depends on gravity. The question is more complicated than it seems,,,,,,,,,,scientifically at least.
It is not about a stone or gravity. It is about ability. Is God able to make so, that He ends to be able to make an action?

I'll answer this with a cute children's parable:

God alone existed for eternity, which is a very long time.

One day God was bored and lonely and wanted a playmate, so he came up with an idea. He decided to create a play and pretend to be ‘not God.’ So the play began of God and ‘not God.’ He set out pretending to be a universe with stars, planets, trees, plants, animals, and people.

Since God is God, he’s very good at what he does. So when he pretended to be ‘not God’ in the play, he was so convincing in his role of ‘not God,’ he forgot that he was God. So the play became a nightmare. So now God, playing the role of ‘not God’ and forgetting he is God and, as a result, suffering so much, finds himself in an ongoing search for God.

Can God create a stone that He cannot lift?
Answer: no, the Omnipotent One cannot make
such a stone because it is a suicide, and the latter is sin. Any sin is an act of non-existence.
Because sin is emptiness, the absence of
any meaning, the God of Existence and living
does only existent actions. Satan, the evil spirit of non-existence and death, does the non-existent actions only: he is the father of sin. For example, the tobacco industry produces cancer cases. It serves the evil authorities to depopulate the planet. The satan does not exist in God's objective opinion. The satan is not existent. The satan is the border of our reality, inside satan is Absolute Nothing. It is like a black hole: the hole in our reality. He is there, but he can not be full of life and existence: the sickness is the absence of Health. Thus, sickness does not exist. The satan is absolute sickness.

The question about stone-lifting has hidden meaning, the skeptic asks can God lose divinity, own divine powers. All those Omnipotent Paradox formulations can be put into the question: can God commit suicide? But the answer is no, also because the Christian God is Omnipresent, and so, if He becomes dead in 2021, then He was dead when He was creating the Universe. But that is not possible, because the world exists now. Also because God is not mad and crazy. He is Spirit of Wisdom, mental Health, and Life, and so, can not commit suicide even in principle. He can do only reasonable actions, not the crazy ones. Therefore the German Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche with his "God is Dead" must be understood not literally, he was referring to the modern and post-modern apostasy.
Maybe God could commit suicide by provoking Pharisees to have God himself being crucified.to death for a few days. Suicide by angered Rabbis!

I don’t think God can do those things which are contrary to His innate character...


“There is much that God cannot do, not in spite of who He is, but because of who He is. Even Augustine, described as the first of the early so-called Church Fathers who "taught the absolute sovereignty of God," 3 declared, "Wherefore, He cannot do some things for the very reason that He is omnipotent." “
