Unright, I beleive you are correct.

I have a hard time with the entire concept of omniscience, since I beleive it only to be a concept. That is to say that it is impossible for a being to be omniscient because she/he/it would have to be larger than AND outside AND inside of our universe all at the same time. In other words there would be too much information for this being to digest all at once. If there was such a being it certainly would not be a "personal" god because of it's immensity. It is for that reason that I have failed in my conceptualization of omniscience.

Hence, the logic of such a circumstance evades me to a degree. But if I try long and hard I am certain I can squeeze out some logic that would make everyone groan. (HA HA)

Thanks for you great feedback!
