Actually, did not the bible suggest that after eating the fruit from the tree of knowledge that we did know as god knows?

Genesis 3

22 And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

It goes one further, it suggests that man knows as the gods know. By inserting the plural it acknowledges that yhwh was simply one of a pantheon of gods.
