    Omnipotence doesn't necessarily mean ability to DO everything, just perhaps to KNOW everything (depends on faith, I suppose). There's a lot of know-it-alls who can't accomplish squat. So the side effect? Impotence!

    You must be kidding me - did I really have to specify to you that I was going by the dictionary definition of the word but I guess you know it all. By the way, nowhere in any dictionary definition that I have seen is omnipotence limited to meaning 'to know everything' It essentially means to be all powerful or almighty or being able to achieve anything; so yes, while you could be all knowing - that is not the primary definition of the word just one of the powers you would have if omnipotent. See:

    https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/omnipotent,

    https://www.dictionary.com/browse/omnipotent

    https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/omnipotent

    And here are two religious views of omnipotence (not preaching, debating, arguing religion just showing two examples of religious views of omnipotence) {If that is not allowed, mods please contact me and I will edit these two examples out.}:

    https://www.christianity.com/wiki/christian-terms/what-does-it-mean-that-god-is-omnipotent.html

    https://study.com/academy/lesson/om...d-omnipresent-god-definition-lesson-quiz.html

    Thus impotence would not be a side effect of omnipotence unless it was desired by the omnipotent and in my case that would not be happening.

    You're thinking of omniscience

    You burn off all the hair on your behind

    The ability to make all idiots, morons and libturds disappear in the wink of an eye. (I dread the possible side effect but whatever it is, it would be worth it even if it means I disappear.)
