Let's call on one of my areas of expertise and ask you a question the answer for which cannot be found online and, considering that God is omniscient, would be answerable by He: Attila konungr af Susa var bæði ríkr ok fjólmennr ok vann mörg ríki. There are only a handful of people in the world who have the prerequisite familiarity with this language (aside from the Icelanders, but much has changed between Icelandic and Old Norse) to translate it. I am one of those people. I do not believe that the above text has ever been translated into English, but I could be mistaken. I know what it means, I want you now to "ask God" what it means in English, and if the translations come close, one point for you. If you can answer this question, I will supply you another. Eventually, no matter how deeply you research it, the answer - though purely academic, anything either a veteran philological/medievalist researcher or an omniscient being would be capable of finding - will not be found, and you shall lose. Eventually, if you agree to go through with this challenge (which shall include many areas of study, not just Old Norse translation), I shall compose an original piece, a mixture of perhaps my half dozen best languages. 1

Cannot indicates a restriction which cannot exist for something which is omnipotent. Either you ain't talking to God, or you misinterpreted him. OR, maybe it would have been better had you said that the concept of hate is a human one, a concept which does not exists in God's realm, and therefore the question is invalid. 1
