That's the most ignorant thing I've ever heard, even if came from presumably theist professor (you didn't specify). The person using such a device would be looking for an isolated instance of a particular being. That would be the nature of gods in pagan polytheism and is the exact opposite of what omnipresence, in the Christian tradition, means which is being everywhere at all times by pervading the very fabric of reality.
