Can the omnipotent God create a stone which he(she?) him(her?)self Cannot carry?

(Note: blasphemy added by levik. Disregard if offensive)

As stated before, this is a question of where the faith lies, in this peticular question, "The" is used to refer to as a single being who has power over all, a better way to word it would have been to use "an" so that it opens the doors a bit. I myself do not believe in any higher being, I'm not saying it doesn't exist, but what isn't scientifically proven isn't good enough for my belief.

To the question at hand:

To us, an omni-potent god would be a being that is vastly superior to use in all ways, just as we are to an ant. A being with limitless power is an unreal thought, and everything has its limits (theoretically). We can create many things, but not carry all of them, although an ant might think we can. Simply put:

If he creates a rock that is too heavy for him to carry, then he can't carry it.
