All things belong to God, and men are stewards who are to dispose of all things in a manner which brings glory to God.

Is it possible for something that's not a person to know something?

What a being does necessarily reveals what that being is. Rational souls make themselves known by expressing concepts, judgements, and arguments. If one were to display knowledge, then it would necessarily reveal something about his soul, but a display of ignorace is also revelatory.

Some people don't want to know, and the attempt to force them to learn will only harden their resolve to remain ignorant.
