wolven7I had this really great image, in my head, during the end of my Theories of Religion class, today, but I didn't write it down, because it was the End of class, and we were leaving. I came in here, to write it down, and it was gone.
Let that be a lesson to you.
I'm sure it had something to do with the nature and study of religion, in contemporary society, and how that intersects with the Quantum Mechanical ideal.
I have a problem with the understanding that the universe just started, as posed by most scientists, because it feels like they're skirting an issue. How? What caused it? If the void was the void, and there was no Thing to come to being, then how? But, if the void, was, is, will be infinite, groundless, boundless potential, then our being is... necessary. Eventually precised from the combinations of formless nothing, floating through/being/not being eternity.
Sounds flaky, you say? More so than "There was no stuff, and then there was some stuff." I mean, don't get me wrong, after that initial stumble, everything picks itself up rather quickly, moves on through and keeps it moving... But that's a pretty damn big Stumble, with which to begin.

Date: 2006-07-21 11:58 am (UTC)The void came to term, and then there was birth. Not started by Nothing, necessarily, but fathered, maybe? :)
And what if nothing really ever started it? We just think it did?
