Re: Omnipotence Doesn\'t Imply Seeing The Future.

Not if you(the omnipotent one) are included in that future. Its similar to building a rock you can't lift.

The logical flaw in this is that you are putting a limitation on a being defined to have no limits. That is what omnipotence means. If you want to posit a god who is limited in any manner in potential, then omnipotence is not an attribute of such a god.
Furthermore, even though God permeates His Creation, and thus exists in our time, He is not limited by the constrainst of physics with regards to time. For Him there is no limitation of time's arrow, but a great eternal now, in which both ourselves and those who lived and died thousands of years ago from our perspective are all before Him in the present.
