You raise the dead, heal the sick, give sight to the blind, and I'll consider YOU omniscient too!
WHEN you acquired this power would be moot.

You raise the dead, heal the sick, give sight to the blind, and I'll consider YOU omniscient too! You'd be wrong to. Omniscience is not necessary for any of those things. In fact modern medicine does a pretty good job of the last 2. We're working on number one. ;)
Anyway I was not contending that Jesus was or wasn't omniscient. I was merely contending that I could imagine a Christian believing that Jesus the man wasn't omniscient.

You'll need a much clearer statement than you've provided so far.
You mean that YOU'LL need more 'proof' than that; right?
It don't get much MORE clear than that, but, you are in good company:
NIV John 14:5-11
5. Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?"
6. Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."
8. Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."
9. Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, `Show us the Father'?
10. Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
11. Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves.
NIV John 20:24-31
24. Now Thomas (called Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.
25. So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he said to them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it."
26. A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!"
27. Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe."
28. Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!"
29. Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
30. Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book.
31. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Sorry, I still don't see a clear statement of Jesus the man's omniscience there. Just because you believe that He was omniscient it doesn't follow that that is true, even if the bible is inerrant, unless you can find a literal statement of that fact.

Just because Jesus was omniscient, doesn't mean He would have to use His omniscience while on Earth or at least not constantly. How can you be omnipotent if you can't shut something off when you want to?

I didn't say DNA was designed by anything intelligent.
A spider web is designed, by I don't credit the spider with much more intelligence than some of our fanatic creationist posters.

It don't get much MORE clear than that, but, you are in good companyWhat I am saying is that AFAICS you are just making up something that isn't in the text. It may or may not be standard doctrine. I don't know. But I thought you guys were keen on the literal words.

I see in your next post you picked several examples that do not support your claim but you link them as if they do.Brazen dishonesty on your part, Dataman. Just brazen. <shaking head>
This goes beyond fear-induced rigid defense of a religious dogma, IMO.

Of course I've seen that one and I'll be glad to use it when I want to sound like Spongebob Squarepants. But I need more than one snicker in my quiver.

The key word, jennyp, is "fear".
i have a hard understanding what it is like to be in constant fear.

Religion is a survival adaptation similar to our other social adaptations. However, there is also a great deal of influence in non-genetic factors including parenting, heritage, custom and peer pressure. Define your terms, please...
Many of the athiests on this thread might not agree that religion is a survival adaptation--and Bill Maher thinks that Christianity is a neurological disorder. (BTW, why didn't he say that about Islam after 9-11, instead of praising the 'courage' of M. Atta and his cohorts for committing exotic murder/suicide?)
And many Christians would suggest that
a) Christianity is not useful merely for survival, as St. Paul lamented -- "If for this life only we have trusted in Christ, we are of all men most to be pitied."
b) Christianity is not merely a social adaptation, but purports to give in some measure--even if only "through a glass darkly"--real information about God and the reciprocal relations of God and Man.
Cheers!
