The accusation makes us flinch while subtly we embrace the forced idea, like a magician forcing upon us, the card he wants us to have. The intellectual sleight of hand distracts us from recognizing the same old challenge of the serpent: ''Did God really say? (Ge 3) Did you really hear him right? Did you understand? Certainly your reason is better than your hearing or memory.''

'''But God said:'''
:''[[Ro 1:19]] ¶ Because that which may be '''known''' of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed [it] unto them.''
=The scoffer plays semantic games=
There is a huge difference between honest questions and scoffer questions. The scoffer has already decided the matter and asks questions designed to confuse. The scoffer redefines words on the fly pretending that words have only one meaning and that he is the arbiter of that meaning.
The scoffer would ask "If we can know everything about God, doesn't that make us omniscient?". The confusion is introduced with the conditional clause beginning with "if".
We did not make the claim that we can know everything about God. The scoffer, when confronted acts hurt. "I didn't say we could, I just proposed the question, 'If we can...'". OK, then it is a stupid question. It has no relevance to the conversation. <ref>Despite what your preschool teacher told you; There are stupid questions.Paul warns us against them: [[Tit 3:9]] But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. </ref> If we allowed the scoffer's question to stand, those not following closely would buy the concept forced <ref>As a magician forcing a card</ref> upon him.
When you claim to know your neighbor, you do not claim to know everything about him, or that you could know everything about him. You claim to know him well enough to make the claim that you know him. What can be known about God is of a more sure nature than what you can know about your neighbor, since it is God himself, who makes himself known. <ref>[[Ro 1:19]] ¶ Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed [it] unto them.</ref>
''If we are to KNOW that he is God; If we are to KNOW that the Bible is his word; If we are to KNOW his will; '''We must know it in a way that he makes it known'''.''
