“Can God create a pizza topping so weird a New Zealander wouldn’t eat it?”

St. Anselm of Canterbury, confusingly.
Creating a logical contradiction is contrary to the form of Truth, and thus evil. Evil is not real, but a deprivation of the Good, as darkness is a lack of light or cold is a lack of warmth. To commit evil isn't power which has to do with the actuation of Being (potence), but contrary to power (hence impotence).

Ergo, creating a pizza with toppings so weird that a New Zealander wouldn’t eat it is contrary to the nature of God, as such an absurdity is incompatible with omnipotence.

And yet, New Zealanders were made.
