As for "greatest possible being," how are we defining "greatest" here? How can we be sure that the "greatest" possible being can do any of these things before we know what's possible? Where's the data on these possibilities?
Then replace "God" in your argument with "Olgiathothle". Are we still talking about the same thing? It works just as well. Are we even talking about something that's possible?

You would agree though that god has no universal definition, it may be up to religions. Theists can use premise 1 as the definition of their god.
