Mar. 15th, 2003 11:46 pmGod is there, even when He isn't.
This is the same in essence as, "Nothing exists, even though it is nothing; yet nothing can't exist, because it would be 'something'."
It is the same as why one cannot know exactly where an atom's electron is in a given second (or microsecond).
Nothing is there, until you look for it.
This is the concept of omnipresence (or, at least, how I can intellectualize it to myself). It is to be everywhere and nowhere at once. That and is highly important.
If there is an everything, there must be a corresponding nothing. For everything has something to balance it (in the Taoist sense).
This is why I believe that on the "other side" of the Big Bang has to be nothingness. As vast a nothingness as this universe is broad. It must correspond.
These, of course, are just my opinions.
