Oh yeah for sure. Being omni creates many paradoxes, but that doesn't seem to bother theists very much. Probably because the disconnect between what they imagine they are describing and what the thing would actually be is so huge. I've tried that path on here, but the nearest anyone has come to conceding the point is "he can do anything logically possible". In fact, professor admitted his omnipotence is restrained by his benevolence.
Whose word do we have that anything is omnipotent? The thing itself. If God was right here in front of me, it would be literally impossible for him to demonstrate he is omnipotent.
It's an absolutely ludicrous claim, and theists would be wise to drop it in my opinion. It's just this idea that if he can create something like the universe, he can do anything! Doesn't follow.
