If you gained omnipotence

What would you do with this power?

For those who are not aware of this word: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnipotence

Would you aim to create peace in the world, or use your power against those who have treated you badly? Or would you simply use it sparingly and privately, to please yourself?

Try to be as honest as possible.

Sparingly and privately.
If I tried to make peace, I'd just end up f-ing the world up more. If I took revenge on people, I'd just end up f-ing the world up more.

:rolleyes:

I'd kick the **** out of my arrogant, cocky, ill tempered, lazy, scrounging, drug riddled, piece of **** that I am unfortunate enough to call a brother.

Actually, I might do that anyway. Sad, pathetic little moron he is. My mums in tears due to that ******.

How's that for honesty?

omnipotence includes omniscience, so you'd know what everything you do would lead to..
**** would be too easy

omnipotence includes omniscience.

It doesn't include omniscience. "All power" and "all knowing" are two different concepts.

I think my mind would implode. Knowing everything in hundreds of billions galaxies?

My eyes would melt just at the thought!

Can you imagine tha moment when you become knowledgeable to everything. How would you even begin to comprehend and process all that information.

I'd like to give it a go though. :smile:

I'd influence the world and set the world up nicely. Assuming I maintain my perspective.

Just enough miracles to make people more aware of the world around them and the power of unity so they could fix the world the long way and learn from it- slightly more lasting than a divine intervention.

I'd then proceed to live a relatively normal life where possible, so as not to get bored of never having to work for anything. I'd be a secret super hero, of course.

I'd help out where people genuinely needed it, like poverty stricken countries, the terminally ill. But I'd do it on the sly, just so it sort of aided the world into becoming more nice and stuff, rather than curing everything and people having nothing to do to help the situation.
