ie "Nothing"
There can NEVER be a world where everything is possible then... because in a world where EVERYTHING is possible, NOTHING is impossible... and if you are saying that in a world where everything is possible it is impossible for something to be impossible, it doesnt make sense
wow soos... deep.
The answer to the question "In a world where everything is possible, what is impossible?", is that in a world where everything is possible it is impossible to give a valid answer to the question "In a world where everything is possible, what is impossible?"
The conclusion has already been given above: a world where everything is possible is impossible.

hear hear, where everything has to be possible, then it must also be possible for something to be impossible (otherwise it's impossible for something to be impossible). this means that the only thing that can be impossible in a world where everything must be possible, is for there to be a world where everything is possible (it's an lovely paradox that one)
That's like a qoute I use, nothing is impossible we just make it that way.
Nice Teaser IMHO.

That teaser has no answer.
EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE, but to be impossible means NOT possible, but b/c EVERYTHING IS possible that means something Can be impossible but b/c something can be impossible that means not everything is possible, and then it goes around in a circle of yes no yes no yes no. Now I have a headach, and confusion. I still liked your teaser, but this is a hard one to understand!

For the words possible and impossible to exist since there would have been no need to invent them
If everything was possible, something impossible is possible. Yet something impossible cannot belong in a world where everything is possible. But the statement that everything is possible would mean that something impossible would be possible.
I like comeon's comment the best!
And I thought the "answer" to this was going to be at least a little more creative, like "creating a teaser that no one can solve."
