    Every time you come back to the simplicity of “I am God also, I choose experience”, once you get back to that simplicity, it frees up a lot of energy to actually have experience, rather than try to understand what experience is. It’s not about getting to the other side. It’s about how I am in this moment taking that next step, no matter what the outcome is.

    Interesting to hear in the searching of this conversation so many themes mirrored by the story of Genesis. According to Genesis God did create man because of loneliness, he did flip on the switch, and he does speak our language. How/why does he speak our language? Because we are made in his image. Why are we made in his image? Because he was lonely. Either the story is true, or the people who wrote it were asking the same questions - so many years ago.

    It's maybe easiest to articulate it as you articulate light, in that it can be a wave and a particle. Humans (as a data engine rather than a static data model like a water bottle) are perhaps particles of the wave which is the 'hidden data model' to which the video speaks of. The water bottle is a data model as well, but obviously not as complex or as active or participatory broadly speaking. It's very interesting stuff. 🙂

    I don't much like it when people say, "It depends on what you mean by "God." Of course it depends. I'm asking you. If there was someone that actually knew, we'd know about it already and we'd be talking to them. Stop injecting other people's interpretations into the conversation in order to divert the conversation away from your own interpretation. If I say, "Do you believe in God?" then I'm asking you what you believe and you can ask me what I believe. We're talking about our own faulty ideas here. So many people want to bash other people's idea of God. I already did then by coming up with my own interpretation, which I'm happy to share. Tell me about yours.

Of course it can't be expressed accurately in words, so when someone tries they appear to bring down the universality by their matter of factness. But don't get it twisted, the experience of the divine is very much accessible, although not through those back and forths.

    I am dumb so someone please correct me. If science believes in the multiverse that every possibility plays out does that mean at least one of them universes has a god? In fact more than one universe and more than one god? I think I have heard science speak about other universes having different conditions even down to physics. I have heard other dimensions could have different conditions even down to physics. So why can't a god exist? Wait... In the multiverse how could every possibility play out because their would have to be a universe that is not apart of the multiverse? Which isn't possible to have something that has a possibility of not existing lol.. :/ or do I need to do more research? I did none...

    Science is a method for understanding reality. There is no preference considered in that process, when done properly. The result is reality.
    You can't answer the question of whether or not there was a deliberate action that resulted in the universe that we observe without understanding more about reality.
    I don't like to think of things as close to me or far from me. I like to think of things as close to each other and far from each other. There's currently a limit to how close objects can be to each other and us still be able to interact with those things, ie subatomic particles, and things that are very far apart, the so-called edge of the universe where galaxies are moving away from us faster than the speed of light due to the expansion of the universe. Essentially, our ability to gather information is looking to be limited, and will likely make it impossible to understand the true nature of reality.

So sound is vibrations and vibrations are also know as waves and wave frequencies are know as light. So it makes sense that light was the first thing created considering everything was spoken into existence. I could be wrong and I only have a very elementary understanding of quantum physics but I do believe God and science agree more than people might be aware of. Hopefully that makes sense or at the very least you can see where i’m coming from. But I do believe if you take the Bible literally and believe creation happened the way the Bible states it aligns with quantum physics.

    Occam's razor: the simplest explanation is the best. Instead of presupposing that must be some other more sophisticated philosophy about explaining the origin of the universe than the Bible maybe it is more simpler straight line between A and B to assume that the Creator simply authored the Bible through his Divine Providence because he wanted to make the truth accessible to us. And then through it further Act benevolence he took on human form 2 make the truth of his existence even more accessible and relatable. When you guys have these exchanges, it's almost as if there is an underlying presupposition that that must not be true.. the Bible is not a compilation silly stories but rather, it is the most complex enigma that, in my experience, seems to continually unfold itself as I continue to study it as if it were alive , so to speak. .. the Bible is indeed for the intellectual mind.

So far, in my 65 years, I haven’t been presented with that evidence and don’t know of any scientist that has. Give scientists actual evidence of God, and then they can go to work coming up for explanations for God’s existence, etc.
