“LOL Heisenbergs uncertainty principle clearly proves that an omniscient being can’t exist. Hence anyone who believes in an omniscient being is irrational.”

Heisenberg proves no such thing. The uncertainty principle discusses the inability to describe both the location and momentum of a particle to an arbitrary position, requiring a probabalistic view of information in general. However Heisenberg says next to nothing at the macroscopic to cosmic level, nor at the sub Planck distance level, so if you are trying to say God can’t be omnicient, it’s like a big so what. Even humans make statistical predictions everyday that are infallibly accurate.

If I tell you I will drop a brick on your head once a minute until the Heisenberg uncertainty principle kicks in and makes me miss, I suspect you will respect even this humble human’s omnicience.

You need to provide your definition of God. You seem to agree that he isn’t omniscient, what other limitations does he have?
