Argument for atheism from impossible actions

Argument for atheism from impossible actions
The Christian god is said to exist by definition in a superntural realm as an omnipotent but incorporeal mind. As such an incorporeal mind has no potential nor kinetic energy they are incapable of acting upon the material world. Energy is of the material world and is required for action within it (eg forming earth or life upon it or just directing matters to take a particular course requires energy) therefore the Christian god cannot be omnipotent and this would lead one to conclude that therefore no being with these qualities exists and that atheism is true.
