If you had read even the first six words of the wiki article from which you took your pic related, you would have realized that the hierarchy to which you refer was created by some dude several centuries after the death of Christ, and is only one of many that have been suggested.

Can anybody please help me choose a book out of this catalog, considering I've never read literature in russian (except for one dual language book)
Of course I'm looking for relatively simple vocabulary and moderate length.

How long have you been learning Russian?
Anyway, I read chekhov about half a year after starting my classes and I found it to be fairly manageable to read, so you might wanna try Three Sisters

+2 years probably, but I'm learning by myself, so that doesn't say much.
thank you for your suggestion!

I have an answer to this paradox that I personally find very satisfying. For me it comes down to an issue of semantics. The paradox is rephrasing Gods inability as an ability.

Instead of saying
>"Can God create a rock so heavy he can't lift it"
We can rephrase it as
>"Can God not lift a thing he's created"

We know that God is ominpotent and we can define omnipotence, for the sake of this discussion, as the ability to create infinitely heavy things and the ability to lift infinitely heavy things.

So what we can again rephrase the paradox as

>Can God create an infinitely heavy thing and then not lift it?
The answer to which is yes, he can choose not to lift things

or

>Can God lack the ability to lift an infinitely heavy thing?
The answer to which is no, he can lift infinitely heavy things.

Can you explain how the argument uses a modal fallacy?
