Is an omnicient God possible?

Do you believe that the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle is real?

If so, aren't you faced with rejecting an omniscient God outright?

Is it possible that not even God can determine both the momentum and location of a given elementary particle? If the Uncertainty Principle applies unversally the most anyone can know about the universe is half of the data. Every measurement of elementary particles accesses at most half the possibilities.

Yes, I accept quantum uncertainty. I do reject the idea of an omniscient god. However, I also reject the concept/idea of God in the first place.

However, theists really don't have much to worry about. I'm guessing that most theists are going to agree that their god is above the natural laws of the universe. Remember, god is magic ;)

In all reality, how can that be? When God jumped into Jesus' body, he entered right smack dab into the middle of human time. He was prone to nature's laws.
