    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.

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