A God Theory of the Universe

Most of my friends don't believe in God; they believe in the Big Bang and String Theory.

They can't explain either theory - most people can't; they accept it as a matter of faith.

Sadly, most don't see the irony in that.

THAT MAKES ME THINK... MAYBE THERE'S A SCIENTIFIC WAY TO PROVE THE EXISTENCE OF GOD TO THESE FOLKS?

I think this might be possible because there are very serious problems with both theories - The Big Bang and String Theory: they keep bumping into phenomena they can't explain, an so get more elaborate and complicated every year. TS Kuhn described how this process works in science - how and why and when one theory replaces another. Right now there are several theories competing with each of these.

Two of the problems physics is now encountering are HUGE: the Universe is expanding at an ever accelerating rate, and there is no known source for this energy; if there has been a Big Bang, then the energy shown run out and the Universe should gradually fall back on itself and repeat the process.

So physicists have come up with new theories to explain this acceleration chief among them Black Energy.

There second big problem with the Big Bang theory is that matter should be evenly distributed throughout the Universe, but it isn't.

To explain this physicists have posited that there musty be Black Matter: matter we can't see/detect/measure - but "it's there; it has to be there! TRUST ME!!!!"

God is really a much simpler explanation; God passes Occam's test. Here's how:

First, all there was only God.

To create space for the Universe God had to withdraw - He had to create a place where he wasn't, a place where dimensions and matter and energy could EXIST ON THEIR OWN.

That place is our Universe.

The force accelerating the matter in the Universe is God: matter is being attracted back to God who exists in other dimensions and at the outermost ends, or outer edges of the Universe.

There are many black holes throughout the Universe and many emit energy jets.

There is no sign anywhere that these or any other things are collapsing back to the singularity.

These black holes and the dark matter and the dark energy are all racing towards God.

Shouldn't you, too?

Whether we choose consciously or not - we choose: a life lived must make moral choices and must confront moral dilemmas.

WHY?

Because God also created MORAL SPACE for us humans, a space where we can choose: right or wrong; good or evil; justice or injustice - God or not-God.

In this moral dimension, we are not inevitably drawn to God as matter is in the material dimensions.

We must choose to move toward God.

If we don't choose God - or Godliness, then we collapse back upon ourselves like a dying star.

Or look at it this way: Einstein proved that gravity is really a warp in the space-time continuum: matter - and the weak and strong forces in it - warps the continuum and a lot of it warps it a lot.

Our Sun warps the continuum - and our Earth isn't spinning around it as much as it is being pushed around it as if it was in a gully in the continuum, a place where our warp and the Sun's have found a balance of sorts - the way our Moon has with us.

Well, maybe God is the ultimate warp in the space-time continuum? The warp beyond all matter and to which all matter moves.

And this God isn't just a force of nature; He's conscious of everything.

I know atheists believe that human consciousness is just an artifact of our brain-power, and many people have posited that soon computer's will have self-consciousness.

So... er, um... if computers - which are a phenomena only 75 years old - will soon spontaneously develop consciousness, then why can't God - that force above and beyond all things and the Universe itself, why can't it have consciousness?!

Something that big and old - infinitely big and infinitely old certainly has the energy, matter, and time for this to evolve, no?

In fact... I don't see how it COULDN'T HAVE!

That's why I think a Universe without God is illogical and impossible.

Anyhow, God certainly explains the things that dark matter and dark energy and String Theory and the Big Bang Theory cannot.

Perhaps my friends will just have to decide which leap of faith is more moral.

• Believing in a Universe without judgment in which there are no moral universals only values asserted.

• Or a Universe with universals and eternal laws and good and evil.

The world I live in is much more like the latter.

Unfortunately, too many people have turned away from God and are choosing evil and doing what is unnatural only right in their own eyes.

The consequences for this are eternal, too: nothing good comes doing evil.

And doing what is only right in one's own eyes is the very definition of evil.
