Do you think its possible for a god to learn.
To assume God can learn anything one must first postulate something God did not create. If I make a ham sandwich there is no way for me to learn anything about the contents of that ham sandwich - I'm the one who put mayo and mustard on it, I already KNOW there's mayo and mustard on it. God made everything - Bible says so. So God already knows everything that is.

For God to learn anything there would have to be a different reality, one not created by God. And, Star Trek aside, we have no evidence of other realities not made by God.

Help myself to become well.
What has happened that you feel you need to help yourself become well? Why have you lost your faith? What was the trigger that turned you away from God?

What are your methods for reaching out to people who have lost their faith in Jesus.
Not sure there is what I would call a method? I think folks could have some real reasons for their doubts and those should be heard . I also think and know that false doctrine and false Christian groups have confused so many that some may think they have left a faith they never really knew. Its almost always related to false doctrine in some way I believe.

Dont know, just seems to me to be a horrible thing to never change.
We need stability and we would not want God to be changing all the time we would never be able to count on Him.....It is not horrible to be able to trust and rely on God knowing that He knows what is best for us.

The trigger was something God would just never fix.

Why do you think these christian groups are like this.

Why is it willie.
Well, why do you feel it is it for you? We are all different, and it really doesn't matter that we know about someone else's reasons. As the Bible constantly and repeatedly teaches, our focus needs to be on ourselves when it comes to learning about things that may hinder us. "Speck and Mote"..... Work on ourselves before turning our attention to others.
