    Well, gum you'll be pleased to know your further comments as connected to Omnipotence are clear as mud.

    Do you require some brain washing?

    It may seem like omniscience to you but of course omniscience is not needed to make that statement. Only knowledge.

    Well, yes.

    noun: omniscience
    1. the state of knowing everything.


    Kind of. As you keep representing about yourself.

    In fact a well known argument about the limits of a God's omnipotence is that once a game (or creation) is enacted with fixed laws defining that game then even God can't violate those laws because that would negate the game.

    Ok, omniscient one! So the laws are fixed?
    Please tell us all those fixed laws.

    Eg in Poker can God make a pair of deuces beat a royal flush ?

    So, what is the game God is playing?
    Who said the laws are fixed?
    How long does this game go on for?
    How many hands are played?
    One?
    No more shuffling the deck?

    No, because if that was done then it is no longer Poker.

    So creation before creation of the world and creation of another world forever within all creation is equivalent to a hand of poker where a pair of deuces meets a royal flush.
    That's grandioise guru stuff that! Wow, mind blowing comprehensive stuff.

    Why do you think intervention at our level is always via special human Messengers or direct inner revelation ?

    To understand the difference between a pair of dueces and a royal flush?
    To get us beyond the end of this earth?
    To lead us to the land of milk and honey?
    To get us beyond our own mortal lives?
    I don't know oh omniscient grandioise guru, do tell!

    Don't believe tales of supposed spectacular direct intervention by God as per the OT etc.

    I am interested in what they tell and why they tell it and what it relates to.

    It's story telling ascribing natural events to God.

    The raising of the dead are natural events?
    Living to around 1,000 years are natural events?
    Angels, impure spirits, creatures with eyes all over their wings are natural events?
    Well, of course you'd know omniscient one!
