    Seeker: "God, show me a sign that you exist."

    God: "No."

    Seeker: "But isn't your telling me, 'No', a sign that you do?"

    God: "No."

    Seeker: "I don't get it. Why not?"

    God: "Okay. I'm omnipotent, right?"

    Seeker: "Absolutely! By definition. That's what makes you God."

    God: "Then I can be one, or many, or none, as I choose, right?"

    Seeker: "Well, I guess that I can't limit you to any of one those options, but it would certainly be convenient if I could."

    God: "You can't. I'm God, and you're not."

    Seeker: "Never mind. Sorry I asked."
