No it wouldn't. Our relationship with God pertains to sin, separation, covenant, redemption, his presence, a correct perception of God, and holiness. That's what God talks to us about.

It seems like if someone lived their life as a christian scientist only studying God and neutrinos that this answer would absolutely be in the bounds of their relationship with god. Thoughts?

I get it. You want God to be like a cosmic wikipedia, Siri, or the best contestant Jeopardy ever had. No, wait, a Genie in a lamp! That's what you want. You mistake what a relationship with God is all about. The Bible reveals God and what pertains to our relationship with him.

Daniel's the only one I know of who was able to get information (such as this, but different) from God (Daniel 2.1-30, esp. 19). Matt. 7.7 has a completely different meaning than what you've given it.

What is the absolute mass of the electron neutrino (or any neutrino)? While the masses of the different types of neutrinos are known relative to each other, the absolute mass of any of these fundamental particles is unknown. I am asking this here because, through prayer, a Christian should be able to ask the being that created the neutrinos what their masses are (Matthew 7:7). In the Bible, God reveals truths to men that they cannot have known on their own. I am asking a relatively simple question.

There are a few research groups working on this problem, so this question may be answered experimentally in a few years. But you, as people who have a personal relationship with God, should be able to answer this question before the scientists do. You may answer in any unambiguous mass unit which is still known today (although there aren't any unambiguous units of mass in the Bible).
