Omnipotence Doesn't Mean You Can Do The Logically Impossible.
People mangle the word "omnipotent" in a way where they think they've disproven God's existence, where in truth they are just making themselves look like dummies in the face of the educated.

Sorry ibanex_87 but omnipotent means all powerful, not unlimited power.

Well I'm afraid I disagree Mark. Being omnipotent means you have unlimited power. According to Christians, God is omnipotent and this means his power has no limits and technically he can do the logically impossible.

 Annotated version: Well i'm afraid I disagree Mark. Being omnipotent means you have unlimited power.(That's the pop-usage, not the proper definition) According to Christians, God is omnipotent and this means his power has no limits(It does have limits. He can't sin, he can't do the logically impossible, he can't create a rock he can't lift) and technically he can do the logically impossible(No, God is logic so he can't do the logically impossible.)
