Dude this is the thing I’ve been grappling with for the last three
years... if God is in everything, why does so much of the worlds strife
seem to centre around Him? I think I might have found an answer, not THE
answer, but something to help me sleep without nightmares of a world
that is nothing but the Greatest (I don't say this lightly) Practical
Joke of All Time [check out he nebula pic]
Let me start at the
end, which is the also the beginning... sorry my mind is leaking,
haven't slept in 36. Yes, the beginning: God is in everything, ergo God
IS Everything.
Scientists haven't been able to determine the
exact point in time when the Soul enters the human body, or where such
an entity would reside, or even where it goes when the heart has given
up... the reason for this i think is scientists flat (in my opinion
self-defeating) refusal to acknowledge anything that smells even a
little like metaphysics ... let's leave that be for now. So this leads
us to the question of what the vital essence of the human being is,
what's missing when all the other necessary conditions for the
sustenance of human life still hold?
Looking at the human brain
and it's normal functions while man subsists, the most exciting thing
for me are the synapses that are constantly firing off; from your
medulla oblongata which regulates your heart rate and breathing without
your conscious volition, to the signals being shot along your nervous
system at mind-bending speeds telling individual muscles in your entire
body to move in perfect unison enabling you to take a single step.. all
this is electrical energy, a kind of energy that is self sustaining,
irreplaceable, perfect..
Thinking of the human body as a machine
complicated beyond our ability to fully understand, you've got to be
drawn logically to a design, and by extension a designer.. follow me
into the designer's mind, to look at the Purpose that is programmed
inherently into the child of His thought. A knife is designed to perform
a specific function, the same with a tennis ball or pencil or kite;
these objects can be put to many other uses, granted, but they were
designed with one Purpose in mind. Apply this to mankind’s design; try
to envision the Purpose in our design, Divine purpose if you will.. What
is our purpose? Back to this later..
Back to the energy which
moves us; Einstein could find no other justification for the idea of an
afterlife except for the principle of Law of Conservation of Energy,
which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, simply
transferred from one form to another.. Postulate with me that there is
an energy transfer that takes place, guided by God's hand, at
conception, into the human body, 'sparking' life.. This same transfer
takes place at death, out of the human body, 'extinguishing' life..
Where did this energy come from? Where does it go? I think that the
source of this divine energy IS God...
If there were some sort
of Budget of energy for this universe (which I believe there is); I
can't accept that OUR universe is infinite, this notion is flawed in the
same way that the IDEA of time is, it's all relative. The same applies
to distance and other physically measurable dimensions (I’ve got an
argument to support this, but it would take waaay too long to explain
here). back to the Budget; all of Creation ( as far as we are able to
perceive it) is connected through this Energy, and this Budget needs to
be maintained (give or take) the same way that the Earth's energy budget
is maintained (ask an EGS student for an explanation, I read about it
but can't explain fully yet, give me time) and the bits of it that all
these small bits of Gods creation hold while they occupy this plane of
existence have to give back their Energy when they're no longer using
it, to maintain the balance.. Think for a second of where that Energy
goes. In my mind it goes back to the Source, the very Spark of energy
that set the 'Primordial Soup' to boiling, Creating, from the lightest
element to the heaviest (and back again) what we now know to be our
Universe.
God is the Source, the Beginning and the End, the Energy, the Architect...Everything!
But
we are still no closer to having an idea of what the Purpose that he
programmed into us is... if you figure it out dude, let me, know...
Okay, I actually came up with an answer: http://frustratedutterancesofabrokenmind.blogspot.com/2012/07/let-there-be-love-part-i.html
