THE CREATOR GOD STRIKES OUT!
Please click here to read
the short site "Evolution"
before reading Creator God. Thank you!
Every possible form, which energy and/or matter can
take, must be in use and exists today in time and space (within and without).
Why? We are always in the middle of Eternity. Eternity is a two way
street. Eternity runs both ways don't you know. These forms will include
outside universes about which we know nothing. It will include the universe
within (the esoteric – and other dimensions). It will include undiscovered
transformations of energy/matter, and any other undiscovered condition, forms
or expressions that energy and/or matter may take.
Creation is not a done deal! In fact, Creation is a
constant in the universe and is always taking place. The record book on
Creation is still in the Introduction pages. The destruction of the past is
just as much a part of Creation as are the new things being revealed in all
branches of science, medicine, health and other areas.
Not only have the Gods been created with Creation in
the past, but we must also add intelligent man to the present list of creators.
Creation is higher math at work and operates under the laws of cause and
effect. As we tinker with the math of higher physics new mathematical concepts emerge
and new things are created both in our minds and in reality. Of course, we
cannot create something that has not been brought into existence elsewhere. I
think we should tinker with the concept of love and peace. That would be
something new on this earth.
(A word needs to be said about “plasma” which is a
form and combination of both energy and matter. Plasma and its electric
currents and magnetism seem to be at least (if not more) as important in the
development of galaxies, suns (stars) and planets than does gravity. Indeed,
between all stars, galaxies and planets are beams of plasma that seem to form a
connection that transfers energy and information from one body to another like
a galactic or universal internet. Plasma produces electric currents and
magnetic attractions and rejections which now seems to be the power that forms
bodies in space and determines their orbits along with gravity.)
When we speak of a God here, we are only speaking of
that concept foisted upon us by the Christian religion, which claims that an
Intelligent God is the Creator and Designer of all that is. They claim a God
was preexistent. That is, before there was anything, there was a God. We must
remember that there is no God named “God.” You must give this God a name and
some attributes.
By using this Christian definition, we are eliminating
the many varied little concepts of a God. Most of those activities, miracles
and controversies in the Bible and other holy books (if they are true) could
also be attributed to some super race of long-lived aliens, and they need not
be classified as gods. Aliens could easily possess powers, technologies and
abilities that seem god like to our infant science. But, these are only
advancements, which some day even we may possess. So, we are only dealing with
the Christian concept of a Creator God.
To say that before anything existed, a God existed, is
an oxymoron. Such a statement can neither be understood nor conceived by our
minds. It cannot possibly be true and here is why. If a God existed, then that
God is something. And something is not nothing.
So, the universe could not possibly have come from nothing. It must have come
from something even if that something was what we call a God. Thom's law
explains that.
Thom's Law
"Nothing cannot produce something.
If there were ever a time
when there was nothing
there
would STILL be nothing." *
*For
a more comprehensive understanding of Thom's Law click here.
Even a God, (which is something) could not be produced
by nothing. Therefore, if a God came into being, he/she/it must have come out
of something else. The only "something" that exists now and has
always existed is that of energy and/or matter.
So, any God (or anything else) must be, or must have
been, the product of something. Everything, which is, must be a
product of some form of energy and/or matter. Even thoughts are energy and
cannot be separated from the thinker.
Now that is strike one against the Christians who say
that a God preexisted nothing. Or, as some say, a God coexisted with nothing.
That is, while there was nothing, there was also a God. Unless, of course, you
wish to claim that God IS nothing. I could accept that claim. But if the
Christians accepted that claim, there would be no grounds for this discussion
and no discussers. So, you cannot have a God, (which is something) and say that
before God, there was nothing. You cannot claim that a God coexisted with
nothing because a God is something. Nothing cannot coexist with anything except
itself. You must either start with a God, which is something (and
came from something else) or you must start with nothing, which cannot produce
any thing except more nothing. For sure, you cannot have it both ways. If there
is a God, he is something and something cannot come out of nothing. Fasten your
seat belts because we will navigate through this dilemma.
Strike two says, since there was something that must
have predated a God, God could not have created everything. He could not have
created himself (herself or it) if God was not itself to start with. The
original God (himself/herself/it) would have to be developed from
something that was NOT a God. God is claimed to have knowledge and character
(an attribute). Knowledge and character MUST be developed. It cannot be
decreed. It cannot be magically waved into existence. Knowledge and character
is a Product of intelligence, life, and living. It is a product of
making wise and foolish choices. It is a product of growth.
Did a God have the knowledge to create or make a
universe? Where did he develop that knowledge? It is inconceivable that God
simply sneezed and the universe came into being. I don't think even the
Christians would believe that.
To have the knowledge to create, or even to make
a universe, God must have had some prior experience, some development, some
trials and errors in how and why this worked and that did not. (Is It possible that our universe may be one of God’s early
flawed experiments?) Also, the Christians claim lots of wonderful attributes
for their God. God is all-good. God is all-great. God is all-just. God is all-wise. God is all-knowing. God
is everywhere. God is all-powerful, and so forth.
That is, the Christians give God a good, moral and
powerful character. Now character cannot be developed in a vacuum either.
Character must be developed by trial and error. Character is
developed by finding out what is good and what works. To do this one
must also find out what is bad and does not work. Character must always answer
the question, "Why?" in order to develop. Character is also a growth
process.
Therefore, there must have been other individuals and
intelligences with whom God could interact in order to develop a good
character. There must be at least a family of them. So, God is not alone. Other
intelligence demands some type of setting in which they could interact. They
must have a place, a home of sorts. We now must allow God to have at least a
family, a home and a setting, or a place of operating, in order to develop his
character. That is strike two against a Creator God being by HIMSELF, and at
the same time having both a good character and ultimate science knowledge. God
could not decree himself a good character or vast scientific knowledge.
He would not know what was good or what to decree. He must have developed that
knowledge.
In addition to this, God talked! How could a God language
develop without other like beings with whom to communicate? Come on now! Think
about it!
Next, we come to strike three. If there was something
out of which God came, then there was already material available to make a
universe. That is, God could not possibly have created the universe. However,
God could have MADE the universe. That is, he could have taken the material
that was available and MADE the universe out of that.
The
Christian information about an Intelligently Designed and Created Universe
comes from a mistranslation of the Jewish Testament. The Jewish text
reads:
"In
beginning, the GODS MADE the heaven and the earth."
The
Christians CHANGED that to read:
"In
THE beginning, GOD CREATED the heaven and the earth."
In other words, the concept of a Creator God stems from a
MISTRANSLATION - from a mistake, from a LIE. Think about that!
Either the God of the Old Testament made a mistake and
used the word "made" when he should have used the word
"create" in telling us about a beginning, or the New Testament God
made a mistake and used the word "create" instead of the word
"made" to describe a beginning. In other words, one of these Gods is
lying to us. Which God is lying to us?
Since the Old Testament God told his tale first and
then the New Testament God plagiarized and edited his work, I must assume the
New Testament God is the real liar in this case. Of course, if you do not wish
to give the New Testament God the credit for this lie, you could give that
credit to the creators and writers of the new holy book.
There are those Christians who say (in spite of Thom's
law) that God did come out of nothing. I have some questions. Is God supposed
to be greater than the universe? The Christians and the Jews say,
"Yes." Then why didn't NOTHING create something
smaller or less significant than a God in its first effort at creation? Why
didn't NOTHING do something simple first? How would
NOTHING have the wisdom to make something more important and more complex than
itself, more important and complex than the whole universe? Why didn't NOTHING
make the universe first and then make a God?
How did NOTHING make a God when it had not yet
discovered how to make the hydrogen atom? The effort of making a God would have
challenged all the resources of NOTHING, which resources of course are zero.
Hydrogen atoms would not have strained the efforts, knowledge and power of
NOTHING nearly as much as making something greater than the whole universe.
Did you know that believers in all ages have created
gods? Today believers can create gods too! They make lots of gods using only
the twenty-six letters of the English alphabet.
Now it is a fact, you cannot put a strain on zero
(nothing). You can multiply it. You can divide it. You can add it. You can kick
zero around, abuse it, smash it, cast it aside and guess what? It is still a
perfect zero. So, I do here by declare ZERO to be the only perfect number in
the universe. Nothing you can do to it changes the value of zero. It is always
and forever - zero. You just cannot get anything out of zero except ZERO. And
nothing is zero. And zero is nothing. A God did not and COULD NOT come out of
ZERO.
We see, the Christian concept of a creator God goes
down on a called strike three. From now on, the creator God must take his seat
on the bench next to the rest of the religious gods who struck out. A God could
not have preexisted that from which he came. He could not create himself. He
could not create the universe without vast knowledge, which he must have
learned by trial and error. He could not have learned without other
intelligence with whom to interact. He could not have created the universe from
nothing when material (energy/matter) was already available from which to make
it. The Creator God strikes out. Did I mention that God could not have created
herself if she was not herself to begin with?
Since there is no creator God, maybe there is a Maker
God. Let us examine that next.
