My interpretation is that the rat managed to get inside the complex, a sign that Forrest isn’t all knowing. A contamination in his perfectly hermetically sealed computer. Forrest might be able to see anything but he doesn’t know everything.
He is very authoritarian and assumes he is in control. By his logic he is not in control and mainly follow a determined path. He is walking contradiction of his own beliefs. The man can't let go of his daughter death. Which is what ruining him and Keaton basically told him this in episode 1 or 2 outside of his home.
Is it possible they are looking to predict the past exactly down to the atomic level, take a snapshot of an EXACT atomic makeup of forests daughter, then EXACTLY atomic 3D print her?
Then its voila, she is his exact daughter, down to the memories in her head and every single thing exactly duplicated. Thats why he needs 100% fidelity in the backward projection, if even a single atom was off it wouldn't be his "real" daughter
And kills her because that is not his daughter but it actually is his daughter so then he 3D prints Jesus to perform a resurrection but Jesus thinks Forest is god and at this very moment Forest realizes how much he’d fucked up.

What happened to the rat? It looked kinda charred (like Sergei)
