Why do we believe the story of Jesus?

Can God create something which exists on its own and does not require Him to sustain it. If you say no then how is God omnipotent except in the trivial way of a dreamer?

You appear to think that if God should cease to exist (a blasphemous suggestion), that the cosmos would remain. It has nothing to do with his omnipotence or trivial dreamer [and magical] language, but ontology. How can he who possesses aseity create something that also possesses it and is not conditionally existent, its existence not contingent.

We could talk about this again, but oh well.
