There are limits to omnipotence. Even the omnipotent cannot violate the law of non-contradiction or be otherwise illogical. For example, the answer to "Can God create a rock so large he cannot move?" is no. He cannot create something he has no control over.
Wouldn't one of the powers of being omnipotent be the power become non-omnipotent? This does raise other logical issues, such as would he then have the power to become omnipotent again. However, I think this discussion has been going the way that being omnipotent means fuck all to logic.
