I believe that God operates by His own laws of quantum physics/quantum mechanics. It isn't that he CAN'T, imo, it's that He WON'T.

This is what I think too. The laws are God's laws, and God is God because he keeps those laws in perfect order. The same goes for laws concerning good and evil. Sure, God could violate His own laws if he chose, but if He did, then He would cease to be God, and He doesn't cease to be God, therefore he is not going to break his own laws.

This is why we needed a redeemer. The law fixed a price on sin, and the price is more than we are capable of paying ourselves. God could not break His law and continue to be God. That would be a terrible thing. No imperfect being can be in the direct presence of God without being destroyed. But He didn't want His children to be lost forever either, so he provided a way for the law to be kept and the price to be paid. He sent His son, who could pay that price, because we couldn't, and He loved us. He wanted us to be able to return to Him. We couldn't be perfect on our own, but with help, if we accept it, we can be made perfect. We can't imagine or comprehend the magnitude of this gift.

May I share with you the words to a song? I'll mention that Kolob is the name of the star that we (LDS) believe is near to where God lives.

If You Could Hie to Kolob

If you could hie to Kolob in the twinkling of an eye,
And then continue onward with that same speed to fly,
Do you think that you could ever, through all eternity,
Find out the generation where Gods began to be?

Or see the grand beginning, where space did not extend?
Or view the last creation, where Gods and matter end?
Methinks the Spirit whispers, "No man has found 'pure space,'
Nor seen the outside curtains, Where nothing has a place."

The works of God continue, And worlds and lives abound;
Improvement and progression have one eternal round.
There is no end to matter; There is no end to space;
There is no end to spirit; There is no end to race.

There is no end to virtue; There is no end to might;
There is no end to wisdom; There is no end to light.
There is no end to union; There is no end to youth;
There is no end to priesthood; There is no end to truth.

There is no end to glory; There is no end to love;
There is no end to being; There is no death above.
There is no end to glory; There is no end to love;
There is no end to being; There is no death above.

I think that this song gets at some of the questions that have been asked in this thread. Still, I don't think that debating these things will get anyone anything. We each have to find our own truth and understanding. The only way is to go to the source, learn about Him, and ask Him what is true and whether He is limited, and whether it matters.
