Would you start creation or not?

To me, the true tragedy of creation (if that is indeed what happened), is that the creator divinity for all intents and purposes does not care, at least not in the way we humans understand.

-Let us first ask the question of "why" would/should have the creation taken place? I believe the answer to this question is to simply experience. An omnipotent God, one whom transcends space, time, matter, energy, anything and everything imaginable and unimaginable for the human mind, creates to experience itself. From the wonders of  gravity and a newly forming star to a beautiful rendition of Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata," God would experience that within the infinite potential that is God rather than that which could never be if not for God. We as humans are part of that creation and therefore are one with the creator. It is unimaginable to the human mind, the existence of something which is beyond existence. That which is everything and nothing all in the same. As the creation experiences, the creator shares the experience because the creator IS the experience. I use the term "experience" here very broadly; that is, experience not only refers to experience in a human sense but in a universal sense. Imagine all dimensions (perhaps many more than we are aware of) as a mere extension to the infinite. Think of wonders here on Earth. What would it be like to experience a thunderstorm as the thunderstorm? The pure adrenaline as a base jumper makes a leap? The energy of the crowd when a winning home run is belted to win a World Series. Imagine experiencing everything that is with no limits or boundaries. Knowing everything and experiencing everything that was, is, or will be........an infinite wisdom that underlies existence and non-existence. From this viewpoint, in the simplest of terms, we have to conclude that existence is much more exciting than non-existence.....

 

-Now, given all of the suffering throughout the existence of humanity, should the creation have taken place? I believe the answer is yes. One of the greatest gifts that God could give to man would be that of free-will. This means we have the power and understanding to make decisions and live as you wish to live. A God which transcends anything and everything already knows what you are going to do, but you always have and will have the free-will to make your own choices.

 

-These are just some basic ideas to generate some more thought on the topic........

 

-This may be a good time to recommend a very good book. It is entitled "The God Theory" by Bernard Haisch. This book is well written and informative and serves as a great reference point for those who may be looking for something beyond organized religion and strict reductionist science and gives us another way of attempting to answer these questions.
