I'm curious why this was voted down. If it was because my language was a little harsh, I assure you I did not mean to offend, I simply meant he made a mistake in the wording of the argument - omniscient means "all-knowing", omnipotent means "all-powerful". I'd be surprised to be voted down even though I was right on this matter.
If there is a problem with my reasoning after that, please do point it out to me rather than just voting me down. I'm new to Bayes, and as the Amanda Knox Test demonstrated, I often fail at reasoning. If this is such a case I would very much like to know about it. I can't see where I made the mistake though.
[Edit to change the Amanda Knox link to the original, instead of the spoiler]
Please tell us when you are posting a spoiler for a rationality exercise. I clicked through your link and didn't catch that it was a spoiler fast enough for the exercise itself not to be spoiled.
I'm very sorry, I didn't consider that. I actually got to the original Amanda Knox post through the spoiler, but I stopped reading at the mention of the original and went straight to that one first.
I'll change the link so it doesn't trip anybody else up.
