Christians, where does your allegiance lie? - Jesus Christ or Bible

Define all knowing.

Now is it possible to 'learn something' if one is all knowing?

First of all, Jesus was not all knowing:

Matthew 24:36 Wrote:But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

And in Mark 5:30, Jesus asks a question for which he doesn't know the answer, and when he isn't supplied an answer, he looks for one. So the basis of what you're saying is flat out wrong.

Second of all, an all knowing person could certainly change their position on something; they still have a personality, after all, and that's mutable over time. There's no reason an omniscient person couldn't grow and mature. And if Jesus couldn't learn something, then he's certainly not all powerful. Therein lies the trilemma theodicy attempts to solve.
