CAN God do the the logically impossible? Why / why not?

It isntohical for a man to walk on water but Jesus did that.

Hey, I've walked on water. I use to bare foot behind a boot. (Aside: hurts your feet and I was not particularly good at it)

The grand daughter can also walk on water:
(she lacks faith, therefore the life jacket)
(the dog has yet to learn)

The article rightly understood does not support your premise.

It's as though you're reading a different article. I even quoted and highlighted a portion of the article which states exactly what I have been consistently stating--logic is not something outside of God, God is logic.

God is the creator of the natural world and its laws. Those laws define reality. Everything is of and from God. Yet,God is outside of and above,beyond,his creation.

It is illogical to insist God must be conformed by,confined by,his creation.

Logic is our domain. Not God's. God created what defines in our world, Logic. The created does not limit the creator.

I agree, it would be illogical to insist that God must be conformed and confined by his creation, but you're assuming that logic is something God created. But, that isn't the case--God is logic, just as the article states.

So, if logic was not part of God's nature then in theory God could create a rock too big for Him to lift and then He would lift it?

I think that would be the case if he created logic and so wasn't "bound" by it. But, if logic just existed apart from God, then I think he would be "bound" by it and so could do neither.

Why do you have to ask such questions? lol

The definition of a PERFECT God would change in a world where logic was not a foundation of knowledge.

I think so. If God could contradict his nature, then he could sin, which, as I have stated, would mean he is completely untrustworthy.

It is difficult to discuss this as it relies on the possibility that there could be an illogical world and we only have logic to postulate what that world might be like.
LOL ... philosophy is not my strong suit

Then just stop. lol You're making my head hurt. I actually do like trying to wrap my head around it, so thanks for the questions. It's good to ponder the nature of God, as who we think he is really matters (as you know).
