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

[ QUOTE ]
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.


[/ QUOTE ]
Maybe not, it could be your conception of omnipotence is incoherent or that in creating a temporal universe, god chose to create a situation in which the future cannot be seen.
