Question: What is the nationality of the early theologian who has rejected the idea of no-limit omnipotence ?

Amr Ibn Ubayd ibn Bāb (Arabic: عمرو بن عبيد بن باب‎ ‎ , died 761) was one of the earliest leaders in the "rationalist" theological movement of the Mu'tazilis, literally 'those who withdraw themselves' - which was founded by Wasil ibn Ata (died 749).  A student of the famous early theologian Hasan al-Basri, he led the Mutazilis during the early years of the Abbasid caliphate.  He generally followed a quietist political stance toward the Abbasid political establishment. <SEP>  He was an immensely influential philosopher, theologian, and jurist in the tradition of scholasticism, within which he is also known as the Doctor Angelicus and the Doctor Communis.  The name "Aquinas" identifies his ancestral origins in the county of Aquino in present-day Lazio. Saint Thomas Aquinas {'1': ", '2': ", '3': 'OP', '4': "} ( ; Italian: "Tommaso d'Aquino" , 'Thomas of Aquino' ; 1225 – 7 March 1274) was an Italian Dominican friar, Catholic priest, and Doctor of the Church. <SEP> The United Kingdom was the first country in the world to issue postal orders on 1 January 1881.  They were the brainchild of the President of the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce, John Skirrow Wright which was to enable poorer people to buy goods and services by post, as they were unlikely to have bank accounts.  The rich had bank accounts and could write cheques.  A delegation of the Birmingham Chamber went to the annual meeting of Chambers of Commerce in London and John Skirrow Wright presented the idea, complete with all the details on how it would work including all the Postal Order values proposed.  At first London bankers were against the idea, thinking it would affect their businesses, and the idea was rejected.  However, eventually the bankers realised that the people who would use postal orders were not their customers and therefore no threat to their business.  Consequently, at the Annual Meeting a year later John Skirrow Wright presented the idea again and this time it was accepted and the Postal Order system was started exactly as Skirrow Wright and Birmingham Chamber had proposed. <SEP>  A no-limits understanding of omnipotence such as this has been rejected by early theologians such as Thomas Aquinas to contemporary scholars in the philosophers of religion, such as Alvin Plantinga. The omnipotence paradox is a family of paradoxes that arise with some understandings of the term 'omnipotent'.  The paradox arises, for example, If one assumes that an omnipotent being has no limits and is capable of realizing any outcome, even logically contradictory ideas such as creating square circles.  Atheological arguments based on the omnipotence paradox are sometimes described as evidence for atheism, though Christian theologians and philosophers, such as Norman Geisler and William Lane Craig point out that a no-limits understanding of 'omnipotence' is not relevant to orthodox Christian theology.  Other possible resolutions to the paradox hinge on the definition of omnipotence applied and the nature of God regarding this application and whether or not omnipotence is directed toward God himself or outward toward his external surroundings.
