November 18, 2005: Where is God?

Entropy always increases. If you have the pieces of a watch, the pieces don't spontaneously come together to form a watch. However, if you drop a watch it will spontaneously form pieces. We are pieces of the early universe. For complex structures to exist like the watch means they formed from something even more complicated in the past.

One thing violates this order. Life! An intelligent person might be able to pickup the pieces of a watch and put them together to make a watch. If God exists, then he is capable of taking the whole universe and put it back together. Furthermore, he would do so because it would be the only task worthy of his time. However, since the universe is instead falling apart like the dropped watch one is tempted to conclude God does not exist. This leaves the question, how did such a complicated universe come to being?

Some people conclude this means God must have existed but now he is dead.

There is a much more obvious answer which also explains how God created the universe. God must be moving backwards in time. We see the universe as falling apart only because we are seeing creation running in reverse.

This explains why we have an open universe. God literally created the universe from nothing. This also explains why dead relatives don't stop by to visit from the afterlife. If they join God, then they must also be moving backwards in time. Perhaps that bright light people see in near death experiences is not God, but the big bang?

Now for a bit of heresy. The bible states we are the children of God. Children can grow up to be like their parents. Maybe, once the universe decays down to nothing, our distant offspring have nothing better to do than to move backwards in time and put it all back together again...

Just food for thought,

Bill
