Why do you think my definition is wrong?
Before you go saying that God is everywhere, that is not going to hold up. The universe is expanding. If God was everywhere, is God expanding? Or perhaps becoming diluted? Additionally, the universe if finite. Does that mean that God is finite. More silly conclusion can be drawn from a too-simplistic view: for example, is a portion of God in my coffee cup and the rest of him outside of it? No, God does not occupy space and is therefore not literally everywhere. I believe he is cognizant of and causally active at every point in space.
Dude... "omnipresent" does mean "everywhere".
When you discover that God can't be omnipresent the correct response is that he can't be omnipresent. Not to redefine what the word means.
But I am not surprised because it's exactly like how Christians respond to contradictions in the Bible. Whenever there's a contradiction instead of realizing that the Bible makes no sense they decide to interpret those parts non-literally.
Fucking ridiculous. When logic disagrees with the Bible you throw out logic.
