Hi, I was thinking about whether God learns or not and googled it. This forum came up, so I thought I'd join and see what people have to say about it.

Welcome have fun.
You should get many diverse obtuse opinions.

So much of an answer to any question depends upon what one means by the words one uses.
At its basic level to "learn" is to acquire knowledge that one did not previously have.
In that sense, God cannot "learn" because He is omniscient (all-knowing).
Having said that, I know that there are passages that make it seem that God "learns" - but, in my opinion, such passages are interpreted wrongly. (I have in mind the passages about the tower of Babel and Sodom & Gomorrah).
