if we're using such a logic for omnipotence = Something fodder because logic does not entail it doesnt help when im talking about as what im reading "Absolute omnipotence" if you could create your own truth or logic or control it. would you suddenly be below your logic and truth?
Its not even a good way to compare such things with disgenious logic like that when the general idea is that my view on it is that of violating these "truths" to do what they want; but if you want to believe a banana can defeat it, ill need to see some above logic banana feats. (Because the problem is not debating about what or cant defeat it but what it can do)
Cant stress this enough, its control of inverse logic and rules and is left for the author to define in this case when above logic (as it could mean laws, comprehension or reason)
> Trying to use logic and reason to argue for something beyond logic and reason
And then you wonder why you're not being taken seriously. If it's beyond logic and reason, why are you trying to talk about it?
And asking for "feats" of the Banana is a question based on Versus debating "logic" as you demand proof for accepting its validity, so there, you are trying to use logic again when you claimed that it's beyond logic. So therefore, by continuing to argue against me, you conceded.

I agree, in the GRAND scheme of things. However, there can be such a thing as Omnipotent in a confined Space or Realm, at least in fiction.. therefore levels are mentioned. These beings may be considered NIGH-Omnipotent in the GRAND scheme tho.
At least we both agree Nigh-Omnipotence is a thing.
I agree, hence why I wonder why you give restrictions to TRUE OMNIPOTENCE. Logic and consistency are subject to OUR thinking.

Philosophy is the STUDY of something... Doesn't necessarily mean its 'figured out'
Yet we understand the concept and term to the best of OUR CAPACITY.. Lol
How is this even feasible In a fiction that may have more adapt alien minds than Humans tho? Talkin bout "self-defeating... You are the one that's contradicting your own thoughts .... Lol
Omnipotence is a never ending on-going study of philosophy, there could be an infinite or an absolute infinite amount of variations of Omnipotence that one can describe. And there will be problems we have to solve and we as Omnipotentists (those who believe Omnipotence can be used in a versus debate) will always encounter such problems and we will solve it.
But that doesn't mean you tell others that their definition of Omnipotence is "fake" when they agree at least that it's the greatest power in fiction, that's not approaching a debate, that's dismissing it,.
But there are things that cannot change, there can be no multiple co-equal Omnipotent Wills, therefore an Omnipotent Mind is simultaneously perceiving all of Creation's Spacetime from their perspective.
Put it this way, imagine you and I are time travelling together, Cosmic, across Spacetime. Can you escape the Omnipotent's will? No. Let me show you what happens. Consider this scenario.
You and I decide to have fun and time travel to different points of history every second, we are pressing our "Time Travel" button every second and each time you and I are transpored to a different point in history.
An Omnipotent exists in a higher universe (that is greater than our own) and in his realm, Time flows differently and doesn't flow the same as Time in the regular physical Universe. And in the Omnipotent's Home-Dimension, he has his own Clock or Watch that flows separately from the rest of the Universe, as he observes you and I time travelling to different point as we move back and forth in time every second. And he can measure us using his own time.
Omnipotent Clock Second Tick 1 --------> Cosmicreign and Thopples time travelled to 1943
Omnipotent Clock Second Tick 2 --------> Cosmicreign and Thopples time travelled to 2020
Omnipotent Clock Second Tick 3 --------> Cosmicreign and Thopples time travelled to 10,000 BC
Omnipotent Clock Second Tick 4 --------> Cosmicreign and Thopples time travelled to 23,000 AD
Omnipotent Clock Second Tick 5 --------> Cosmicreign and Thopples time travelled to 60,000 BC
Five seconds passed for the Omnipotent, and in each second, you and I time travelled to different points of the Universe, that means that no matter what we do, we cannot escape the measurement of an Omnipotent's TIme.
So notice this, for the Omnipotent God, his watch only ticked five seconds linearly forward in his own time nad it flows independently of the Timespace of the rest of universe. ie. the Omnipotent's clock is still moving linearly, not forward and backward, and exists flowing linearly independent of YOUR time stream and experience and transcends the changes to timeline in all creation and can measure your changes to history.
And we cannot "Turn Back" Omnipotent time, as Omnipotent Time is irreversible to itself, transcendent to our time, and there are many layers of time.
An Omnipotent's consciousness time stream dimension is indivisable, immovable and eternal, irreversible and indivisible. This is why an Omnipotent is really overpowered (among many other things) because the Omnipotent's Time Stream flows independently of regardless of the Time Flow of Creation.
There are two separate time dimensions if an Omnipotent is a given, one is Omnipotent Time, this is the Time stream of the Omnipotent that is absolute and unified across the rest of linear time, and then there is Creation Time.
So if I turn back time in a Universe, only the Omnipotent (among maybe others) is unaffected because their time stream is absolutely untouchable to any domain outside of their own domain of time.
Do you understand? I say an Omnipotent transcends Time because its own Omniscience implies it experiences all of Time at once, and flows independently of Creation time.
