This should answer any question of omniscience, omnipotent and omnipresent.
We'd have to know how he did it in order to say for sure. Smile

I think it means that sin is something done without god's approval. You can say to someone "I'm not with you regarding that opinion" but it doesn't really mean you are at their physical side, just that you disagree. If a person sins, god would still know about it, so on some level he is everywhere and knows everything.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
