Though I see what you're trying to say, the way you're going about it doesn't quite hold. If God exists, and he is omnipotent, then surely he would be able to 'lift' anything he created... The point that he can't create something that he can't lift is irrelevant, and is merely 'clutching at straws', so to speak, if not only mentioned to create an arguement.

Actually, come to think of it, this question, to me, is irrelevant, because I don't believe, and can't comprehend, that God even does exist. So as I mentioned earlier (if not slightly revised, after some thought), if he doesn't exist, then no, he can't create a rock that he can't lift, because something that doesn't exist can't do anything, let alone create a rock.
