Furthermore, just as it is impossible to make a one-sided triangle, so it is impossible to make a rock too heavy to be moved. What an all-powerful God can create He can obviously move. Put another way, God can do everything that is logically possible. Finally, we should note that a wide variety of similar questions are raised to undermine the Christian view of God. Thus, it is crucial that we learn to question the question rather than assuming the question is valid.

Philosophical answer because otherwise its logic- 1, religion- 0. Comparing it to the triangle argument is ridiculous, because whilst you can't make a 2 sided triangle or whatever, you CAN make a rock thats too heavy, or you can't do it. So either way he isn't omnipotent.
