“I wanted to ask you what you think about the FTL 5
technology John. It’s new to me, and as I understand it, based on the
Multiverse structure.”
“I too have given the FTL technology some thought,
though mine is probably infused with less probity than that of your inquiring
and more experienced mind.”
“You are too modest John. I know you have exceptional
logical reasoning ability and have invested some time in learning of the
scientific history and knowledge of humanity.”
“Well Carla, the structure of the Multiverse would
seem to be a salient, necessary element of whatever model an FTL 5 unit would
reflect.”
“Quite. The theology of a Multiverse and its
deterministic structure also seems to me to be of paramount concern. Consider
the point that if a Universe were to be entirely deterministic a priori, then
everything within it including evil would be pre-determined too.”
“Carla I doubt that the theology of the Multiverse
would be an acceptable subject on many worlds. Human worlds subject to the
Aristarch impact already are under the rule of the Supreme Junta of Justice
that proscribed theology as a topic universally. Fortunately the free worlds
still tolerate, being taller, than enslaved worlds and their evil judicial
decretals; and I have given the theology some thought for-myself that I shall
elaborate with you.”
“Good John, I thought you might.”
“How can God pre-determine and create a Universe and
be consistent with His nature as perfect and without sin hence Multiverse and
if they are pre-determined then God has created sin and wickedness too, no?
“I must stipulate a no John. God cannot sin or create
wickedness.”
“Yet each exists and the Universe must be
predetermined along with the Multiverse if God is to have created it.”
“Hell exists John. And the Lord was crucified. Each
were or are at least nominally wicked from my point of view. I don’t mean that
the plan of God to allow His Son to be crucified as a substitute for the
original sin debt of humanity was wicked; it is just that it was existentially
a wicked experience for the Lord; for any human, to go through.”
“Sure Carla; wickedness exists and the Lord God being
omni-powerful created not only it- he created everything else; and yet free
will exists. For many that is another apparently contradictory point about God.
I believe however that the Multiverse and quantum mechanics may account for
each, as it also may account for quantum gravity and relativity.”
“How so John?”
“Consider Carla, that relativity requires a time
dimension to exist as anything besides a static form of space-time composition.
If the Universe were entirely pre-determined and pre-created in its fullness
from alpha to omega however, comparable to a digital action movie stored on a
microchip, the relativistic effects and changes of space-time would be
contingent and superficial emergent characteristics of the present time line
position of inhabitants of the movie. Even relativity would be an apparent
rather than a real experience.”
“Yes John. I follow that. The characteristic of a
fully created and static Universe that had apparent motion experienced by
people living within it just as minds or thoughts experiencing it as they moved
forward within the Universe’s space-time line might well appear to have the
qualities of real motion, time and general relativity commonly regarded as
actual qualities of space-time.”
“Thus it is that there is a great difference between
apparent and actual material facts regarded by a conscious mind, at least
potentially or theoretically. Plato’s famous Allegory of the Cave recorded that
idea many thousands of years ago in the Earth’s lost past. Still, we have the
problem of evil as it relates to God in addition to the nature of the Multiverse
and FTL 5 units to consider.”
“Of course John, please continue.”
“An infinite Multiverse could be encompassed by God as
an idea pre-determined yet infinitely malleable. For now I will stipulate that
the Multiverse created is static and that minds existing within it experience
it contingently without awareness. That
it is their ideas trave within its spatio-temporal substance rather than
Multiverse or any given Universe itself morphimg.
Every possible Universe in any form is pre-created
within an idea of God that hasn’t spatial-temporal dimension or scale; God is
spirit. The Multiverse is a contingent idea of less necessary size than that of
a Plank length.”
“Then John, the Multiverse to be consistent would
require that each thought of any mind would be consistent with the appropriate
pre-determined physical structure of a single Universe; logically then a single
thought would switch any individual’s thought to another Universe with a
structure consistent with that thought selected by the individual.”
“Yes Carla. That is perhaps one of the most remarkable
features of a Multiverse with free will and pre-determinism coexisting. All of
the infinite Universes existing within the Multiverse allow seamless thought
transference laterally. It is just the number of souls that are conscious
thought that are finite or at least numbered and known to God that exist within
the Multiverse.
And that is why God could pre-determine every
possible Universe and pre-create it in its fullness and allow free will to flow
within it to such an extent that it could choose wickedness and occupy
spatio-temporal material locations consistent with it. Until people choose wickedness, the locations
of wickedness aren’t used. They are empty shells without spirit within them.”
“Sure John. Hell existed yet one needs to choose not
to be saved to occupy it. Wicked scenes in the Multiverse exist yet until
someone chooses wickedness no one goes there.”
“And Carla, though God created Lucifer as an angel of
light, Hell was brought into existence to contain him as he choose wickedness.
It is amazing that wickedness is selected by some as a creative power of
destruction as they hope to create more wickedness. They expand human and other
spiritual experience into realms that God never intended for anyone to go to.
Heaven and hell as places of existential self-deterministic destiny would be
challenging and even anathematic concepts for many during the passage of time
that is human experience.”
“What of the quantum mechanics of it all John? What would
the structure of a static Multiverse be in regard to quantum mechanics,
subatomic and virtual particles?”
“My thoughts on the topic are nothing more than
inferences. Consider how gravity exists transcendently within a Universe yet
draws mass only at the speed of light. Gravity need have some sort of faster
than light presence to transcend local limitations of space-time yet draws
other mass together only up to the speed limits of mass within a field
described by general relativity. Gravity
is another emergent characteristic of the entanglement of virtual particles
that for any given particle occupies theoretically every possible location in
the space-time of a Universe. The probabilities of entanglement increase
compresent with the increase of mass. Hence mass is drawn together as an
emergent phenomena that seems to be gravity.
Each individual virtual particle and a unique
configuration of a Universe as a unique Universe differing from another by as
little difference as the location selected through entanglement of one virtual
particle from another is required for comprehensive permutations of all
possible structures to exist alongside those of all possible Universes that
could be occupied by a human being thought actualization state. Of the
switching mechanics of a soul from one Universe to another that is consistent
with his or her thoughts and free will selections in a world-line I cannot say
right now. I will, God willing, give that some additional thought eventually.
It may be either a material or a spiritual mechanics since either is consistent
with a theology of a Multiverse fully actualized by God.”
“Then I may infer John, that God has provided people
with free will that allows them, existentially, to choose their own
destination in hell, should they decide not to accept his call unto eternal
salvation through the atoning sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ?”
“I agree with that inference Carla. Keeping in mind of
course, that wickedness is the evil that men do, while plain evil are events
enacted by nature and else without act of human will, so far as one interprets
Biblical use of the terms. Satan is wicked while earthquakes that collapse well
designed and built structures may be evil, contingent upon their effects on
humanity-for instance the city may have been long deserted and an eyesore and
the Earthquake served as an accelerated improvisational urban renewal phase
one; hence not evil.”
“Evil in nature need impact humans adversely to be
evil and therefore is a secondary emergent phenomena?”
“Again Carla, I must agree.”
“Well then John, we should make our way to the
observation deck and then check out the available crew quarters.”
