When Muslims (or others) demand an answer to a question like this it's usually treated like a 'grenade' that Christians cannot handle (and sometimes they're right). It's usually because they heard it in the mosque, or from their friends, or from a video, or even just by googling something like "Questions that Christians can't answer." Seldom do they ask the question sincerely and thoughtfully because they really want to understand the subject (but not never). Rarely do they know the context of a "gotcha" verse or have the patience for it. But the Christian must assert it and demand their hearing of it! And sometimes if they will not hear it then they should also hear bluntly, "If you won't consider the whole passage, then you don't deserve any answer. You only want to trap me, and I don't have time for that" (or something to that effect.) It's a skill. But some may be willing to hear the fuller passage, and then you should take advantage of that. Either way, you and I need to think through the question intelligently and get our minds around it. It's a real question based on a real verse in Matthew 24:36 and Mark 13:32.

“But concerning that day and hour no one knows [εἴδω], not even the 

angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only." (ESV) 

In the 19th century intellectuals arose from a tradition called The Frankfurt School such as Max Horkheimer. He was a Marxist who believed in utilizing a multidisciplinary approach to reaching the Marxist goal. He published an essay called ‘Traditional and Critical Theory’, his most famous work in 1937. From Horkheimer and his collaborators came Critical Theory. Which took the oppressor and oppressed identity for humanity and expanded to be more inclusive of other marginalized groups. From this, we have what is called Cultural Marxism.

I am a black American who grew up in a Christian household until I came out as an atheist during high school. I thought the Bible was fictional storytelling with no value to my life or morals. How could this book be in agreement with human rationality? I thought “The world would be better off without religion.” ...Around 2016 I discovered what I viewed as the genius of an economic philosopher named Karl Marx. ... But now I have broken free from the grip of Marxism, and others can do the same.
