 +
Philosopher Patrick Grim of SUNY Stoney Brook has argued that modern set theory disproves omniscience because there can be no single set of all truths. <ref>Moreland, J.P., Meister, Sweis, eds. ''Debating Christian Theism''. Oxford: OUP, 2013. Print. Pages 169-180.</ref>One way to answer this argument is by saying that God nature transcends logic and therefore, as difficult as it may be to comprehend for us, God is still omniscient and mathematical and logical laws do not apply to God.
