You can take it a step further and say an omnipotent being is a contradiction and cannot exist. It is an old objection to the doctrine of omnipotence of God. What happens when an immovable object meets an irresistible force (God)?
(a)Suppose God can create such a stone. Then there is a stone he cannot lift. So he cannot be omnipotent.
(b)Suppose God cannot create such a stone. Then there is something he cannot do. So again he is not omnipotent.
If this reasoning is correct, we shall have to conclude either (a) God does not exist, or (b) if God exists, then God is not omnipotent.
