an omnipotent being can make omelettes without cracking eggs
Can you prove that?
these beings are not really as powerful as one imagines them to be!
If you’re inventing a fictitious being, it can be as powerful or not as you imagine. But if we’re posting a real thing, we’re forced to concede some logical limits.
“You’re not God because you didn’t do things the way I imagined them to be” doesn’t logically follow. No more than suggesting robots aren’t real because they don’t match what I saw once in an anime.
Absolutely. Which justifies all the inter-religious wars. They’ve got to beat out all the heresies.
Can’t make an omelet without cracking a few eggs.
ah, but you see, an omnipotent being can make omelettes without cracking eggs. the word can’t just isn’t in their vocabulary.
unless, of course, one admits that these beings are not really as powerful as one imagines them to be!

ah, so gods do have limits, then, yeah? they aren’t all-powerful? agree?
