From my philosophical background - the typical answer was this:
Yes, Jesus (GOD, High Being, etc etc) could microwave a burrito so hot that he himself, as a human, could not eat. But since GOD has no body there is no need to.
PS - not my answer. Taken from my philosophy professor junior year in college.
However, here is the question he would not answer:
If GOD is perfect and omniscient and benevolent - then he knows the past, present and future. However, if GOD knows the past, present and future we have no free will and neither does GOD because since GOD already knows what will happen, it means our choices have already been made. However, if we do really have a choice, then that means GOD is powerless because we can choose freely. What gives?
This is the one question that our professor never answered and when we attacked it we could never come up with an adequate answer.
