An omnipotent god by definition can do everything.

But suppose that God didn't create a large stone, but moral consequences within her/his own philosophy that made the stone something he can't carry,,,or maybe a recursion to a previous time when the rock was uncarried when s/he tried to carry it.

I suppose it boils down to personal limits set by one.

 

perhaps an interesting turn would be could god create ANOTHER omnipotent being? If god could, then would either of them truly be omnipotent?
