God knows everything we know, obviously.
But isn't it strange how that is all he knows? God never gives anyone any information they didn't already have, so the claim that he knows any more than that is mere speculation.
I can think of a four digit number, and presumably God knows what it is. He could give me a shock right now if he told one of the theists here what I'm thinking of. Does he have the information or not? What use is it if he always keeps it to himself? Line up the list of excuses why he won't do this very simple thing to try and persuade an atheist.
God is you. He agrees with you about everything. He knows everything you know, and nothing more. Go on, ask him to tell you something you didn't already know. Something real, not some drivelly horoscope bullshit. He shares your morality. But guess what? He is also exactly the same as other people who believe in him, people who disagree with you. So either God disagrees with himself, or there are different gods for each person, or none of you are actually in communication with anything at all, or your methods of communication are fundamentally flawed. The video below makes this point in a humorous fashion
Hey look, I'm the preachy atheist I'm just throwing out thoughts to try and get people's brains ticking over.
