Fine. Since god is proving not omnipotent but impotent today lets try some easier ones:
Can god continue to spread the good word with a complete lack of violence? Oops, human error screws that up. But since god can't do anything about that lets try again. Can god create a divinely inspired text that won't be used to incite violence that will claim the lives of millions? Shit, humans messing stuff up again. Can god communicate using anything other than two thousand year old fairy tales? No. Can god create a creature in his image that doesn't happen to be completely fubar? Apparently not.
Can god nut up and take accountability for his bullshit? Probably not. God can't do anything because god doesn't exist.
God is a complete failure to live up to his own definition.
You are using a secular definition for omnipotence not a philosophical or theological one.
Anyways, the point I was making is that proposition such as the one you made are nonsensical and therefore cannot be used to tell us anything....including what it means to be omnipotent. They are a stupid waste of time.
"No one has seen God at any time" (John 1:18).
By the bible's own admission there are no eyewitness accounts.
Matthew 17:20
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
God grants you a metric shit ton of power if you pretend hard enough.
Matthew 19:26
But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Sounds a lot like omnipotence.
And what I said was an exercise in simple logic. Which god cannot overcome. God seems to be the waste of time here.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!
