On abstinence

שו”תCategory: generalOn abstinence

What is the necessity of saying that God is subject to logic? Although the claim that God can create a triangle with 4 sides is nonsense and is equivalent to a meaningless sequence of syllables, perhaps the only drawback is in us. “And if it is empty, it is from you.” We as limited humans cannot achieve victory over logic with our intellect, but the Almighty is indeed able to do so.
How can we discern from the concepts of “all ability” and “logic” the results of their clash? Doesn’t it make more sense to take an agnostic position on this issue?

Even if the disadvantage is ours, there is no meaning to anything said here, and therefore, at least from our perspective, it is impossible to say so. See for example here:
