A quick explanation of the argument: If god is omnipotent (all powerful), could he make a stone so heavy that he himself could not lift it? If one says no, then he isn't omnipotent. If one says yes, then he isn't omnipotent either (because he can't lift the stone).
The problem is, it's a loaded question. Like asking "have you stopped beating your wife yet", the question assumes something beforehand. My answer to the god omnipotence problem is that, like light being a particle and a wave, god would be able to make a stone so heavy he couldn't lift it, but also lift it. The retort to this is usually, "but that defies logic". Well, I say, if god is omnipotent, doesn't it stand that he could defy logic if he wanted to? (Because if he had to obey logic, then he wouldn't be omnipotent.)
I still don't believe in him; to my mind I've just answered a question of no more importance than "could Superman outrun the Flash?" (which, incidentally, he cannot.)
