[The various meanings of the term 'omnipotence'].
METHODS
In this paper, we briefly review the characteristics of the how the human psychobiological unit progresses in the early ages. The pre-eminence of the affective axis is underlined, the shades of narcissism, egocentrism and pseudo-omnipotence present in such early stages are highlighted, and emphasis is placed on how the morbid persistence of such shades throughout adult life can distort the subject's evaluations. This is more specifically so if they badly taint the subject's image of God. The author briefly analyzes the organic stratum underlying emotional affective life and discusses the relationships of the joint integration between the brain and the visceral world. The study also includes contributions by leading Spanish thinkers about the serene conception of the omnipotence of God and finishes by comparing the complexity of the brain with the interaction of the galaxies in the universe.


CONCLUSIONS
The paper describes the psychobiological structure of the human personality, from its most archaic and childish positions, steeped in egocentrism and pseudo-omnipotence, and points out how they extend into adulthood. The frequency and the risk of projections of God (not abstract, not 'all-embracing') are also stressed, and the most up to date and serene theology is followed. It is pointed out that the complexity of the brain is greater than that of a system of galaxies.
