Ignorance vs. answers, take # 3, by the grace of God. .

Doctrine of the Trinity/Atheasian Creed says God, Christ and the Holy Ghost know all things

It does? You mean "true God from true God" disallows that and thus the incarnation as well.

and yet here are a few examples of God and Christ not having the same knowledge or understanding.

Well then there are also other seeming contradictions, such as that "He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep," (Psalms 121:4) yet Christ did in His incarnation, thus you must disallow Christ from being God in nature.

Which leave you with a greater set contradictions, if Christ was not Divine, such as I already linked to , which includes the fact that God states,

Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; (Isaiah 44:24)

Yet,

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: (Colossians 1:16)

Of course the solution is not to allege a contradiction as you must, and reject the eternal Divinity of Christ, much less make Him the product of your Heavenly Mother and her exalted man-god, and physical intercourse with Mary, but to understand that limitations were part of Christ taking upon human flesh, not grasping at all that deity afforded Him.

Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. (Philippians 2:6-8)

That condescension is one of the many aspects that show the God of the Bible to far superior to the god of Islam, which is akin to what you make Christ. But whom you are not at all ready for:

I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. (Revelation 1:8)

Thank-you for your reasoned reply ... except for the anti-mormon fake news/slander .... sorry I try not to respond in-kind but I sometimes fail to turn the other cheek.

First of all, of course I believe that Christ is divine. He is the only-begotten son of the Father, Almighty God.

Since Mary experienced a normal pregnancy and birth,
Christ grew from a babe to manhood completely passable as a normal human being. Obviously Christ had 46 chromosmes, 23 were from Mary .... any idea where Christ’s other 23 chromosomes came from?

But don’t take my word for it, ....

“John 3:16. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

So as I understand it .... you don’t believe that Christ was the only begotten Son of God?
