The monotheistic all powerful one.

In gridiron football, if a penalty is committed close enough to the end zone, instead of the normal penalty yardage, the ball is spotted half the distance to the goal (i.e. if a defender holds an offensive player and the offense is 8 yards away from the end zone, instead of being penalized the normal 10 yards they would be penalized 4). In theory, there can be an infinite amount of penalties to the point where penalties would move the ball micrometers or even shorter without the ball ever crossing the end zone.
There's probably a name for this phenomenon, but I can't think of it.
Zeno's paradox. Although in reality you'll run into problems when you need to move the ball 1/2 the Planck distance
Something like Zeno's paradox.
