People haven't 'learnt' the entire brain yet if that's what you're saying. They've just educated themselves on how things basically work. There's still a lot of questions to be answered.

I vote we start calling scientists "the learnt people".  :P

Decent fallacy of mine you pointed out, they're SUPPOSEDLY learnt(already know everything about the subject) on the subject they have paper with state seals on(degrees).

In that case, nobody could ever claim to be "learnt", as there's always new knowledge just waiting to be discovered.  Degrees are not the end all be all in any field (in terms of knowledge).    Anyone who claims to know everything there is to know about any subject is just blowing hot air.  We are only human, after all; we're not omnipotent.  :thumbsup:

Yeah but the proud person isn't going to admit they don't know some things in their field after they got the degree, the higher the degree the more they think they know all there is to know in their field. As for God being all-knowing I think he's all-knowing is selective after all why would he ask questions if he always knew everything. This is supposedly limiting God according to both believers and atheists but I have to ask both atheists and believers can God condense his own power or choose not to fully use his power at once?

I can't remember if I explained it to you, but if someone either knows or has an itch that something bad is going to go down, and yet the person chooses to do nothing when they're fully in a position to end the problem (in the present), that's just bad. Either way, it's a negative trait.

Your right unless he has a purpose or reason and he does.

It's still a broken philosophy because then he knows who is going to suffer and who isn't. Since he allows for horrendous suffering to truly decent individuals, he is ultimately evil or he is far from perfect. We don't live in a black and white world here. It's a sad reality that the bad guys can win in this one.

Also, what would be the point in praying if everything is already planned out like you said? Praying for something to be included in your god's divine plan would make him rewrite his future agenda, and if that were true, again, he is either not perfect or, if he can, he is evil. It's really an ignorant and self-deceptive point of view that states "God answered my prayers!" when something good happens to an individual and "It's all in god's divine plan." when something bad happens.
