But even if you define it as only what's logically possible so as to avoid questions like, can god make a rock so heavy he can't pick it up, that doesn't solve the problem of multiple omnipotent beings. There's no logical problem with an omnipotent being being able to make a rock some big that no one else can pick it up. In fact that ability is assumed in the definition of omnipotence.
What? Please explain why the concept of omnipotence is logically impossible.

What do you mean "they can't be in control of everything because their power must each be limited by the other". Doesn't make a bit of sense to me.
