The God Realm

I'm not a scientist, but as a Christian, I see the world, the universe and humanity in a different way, and things that seem obvious to me, the scientific world seems oblivious to (and vice versa).  One of the things I see is the necessity for God as an explanation for the incredible functional organization exhibited throughout the universe.  I marvel at humanity's attempts to explain this without God, and I am humbled at the thought of trying to explain it myself - a feat that is entirely impossible for a mortal being.

When it comes to physics; quantum entanglement, the holographic universe and the multiverse are things I've been hearing a lot about lately.  These things are making their way into pop culture and becoming part of the fabric of society.  They are seemingly accepted with limited explanation.  To me, the obvious explanation is that God, and an immaterial world outside of space/time - a.k.a. the “God Realm” - are real and are tied to this universe.

The God Realm would be an eternal continuum, distinct yet connected to the temporal universe at every level, with the finite material universe being fully contained within the infinite immaterial realm.  It would qualify as the mysterious "singularity" of the Big Bang theory - the dimensionless, timeless, single point from which all energy, matter, time and space originated. The difference being that this singularity would continually exist - it did not become the universe, the universe sprang from it.

Graphically, this could be represented by the image above: a finite hyperbolic curve - with the orange line representing our universe within the confines of space/time (blue lines) - plotted within an infinite sphere - representing the God Realm.   There would be a defined beginning (red dot) and ending (orange and blue dots) for the universe, space and time.

This representation is flawed, however, in that it cannot adequately convey the properties of a dimensionless realm. It's really impossible to depict this. How do you draw something dimensionless? It would have to be an infinitesimal, immeasurable point that touches everything - a point that, if we could measure it, would measure both 0 and infinity.  In the drawing above, it would be both the red dot and the infinite sphere. Our minds cannot comprehend this.  A dimensional universe is the only one that can be depicted.  This coincides with what we observe now: it appears as if only the material universe exists, but at the same time we are starting to recognize that something else is required.

This "something" is God himself.  For the God Realm is not an empty realm: the omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent God is the substance and essence of it.  And, the realm is a spiritual place with spiritual beings and spiritual laws, all of which also sprang forth from God.  For God is the Eternal Constant, the One, the Singularity from which all creation sprang forth.  He is the timeless, dimensionless, ‘infinite zero', that cannot be measured or comprehended; the Truth, the explanation for everything.  

Science, of course, cannot measure the immeasurable, it cannot quantify the unquantifiable, nor can it comprehend the incomprehensible.  So what does science do?  It ignores those things and attempts to make sense of the universe without appealing to "nonsense".  Perhaps this is why science is limited in its understanding and keeps running into roadblocks.  What scientists are slowly discovering is the need for something beyond what we can observe; something beyond what we can measure; something beyond the limitations of time and space.

Take then, for example, quantum entanglement; where two quantum particles, even light years apart, are linked together such that both change to the same state at the same time.  The only way that quantum particles - separated by time and distance in our realm - could be directly coupled together would be if there were no space/time restrictions.  This is mysterious and spooky unless you consider that the coupling takes place in the God Realm, which is behind the temporal universe; and that space/time is fully contained within it to the extent that "light years apart" becomes meaningless.  

Next, take the holographic universe; the idea that our known universe is essentially a hologram projected from another universe with different dimensions.   If this were correct, then time, space and the material realm would essentially be an illusion and all of the incredible organization we see would have to be projected like a movie from some other source.  That source, would itself have to be able to account for the organizational properties of everything from quantum particles, to galaxy formation, to life itself.  All of this, like a movie, would need a writer, a director, some sort of intellect at its core.  Within the God Realm, the "hologram" (i.e. space, time, matter and energy) would be "projected from" (i.e. created and held in existence by) the omniscient God himself. 

Then, there's the multiverse; the theory that there may be infinite universes - or "every possible universe" - existing simultaneously.  Again, the fact that physicists are willing to accept other parallel universes in order to explain our universe points to the need for there to be something besides our universe.  This also easily fits within the God Realm, only it would not be “every possible universe” but rather another universe with “every possibility” due to it being immaterial with God at the center of it.  

One final thing: this model suggests that the material universe is not a closed system, that there is constant interaction between the physical and spiritual realms.  This would mean that the spiritual realm that so many experience, and that is the basis of all of the world's religions, is based on something real; that things that are viewed as "superstitions" and "imaginary" may actually have a basis in reality - spiritual reality.  A prediction of this model then, would be that evidence will point to the fact that these interactions actually do occur.
