    God gave people extraordinary knowledge of others hearts but never their totality.

    He alone is the heart-knower of all (1 Kings 8:39; 2 Chronicles 6:30).

    ?? Be assured that pagan Gods are prayed to - and their absolute holiness is somewhat in doubt. Neither God nor any other, whether person or spirit, is prayed to because of their attribute of holiness. The Bible does note that prayer is directed to entities other than God, or gods. Prayer is not worship - it can be many things, including petition, but worship it is not. It is an address to someone else - and only one form of prayer (προσευχομαι) is restricted to address to a deity. All other forms of prayer can be addressed to anyone.

    So even given all of eternity, God cannot explain something finite (any individual human heart) to another person?
