(As a brief aside: readers need not worry that they are “supposed” to believe any of this. The important thing here is that everything we have said thus far is a thousand times more coherent than any argument that could be made in support of the idea that the Divine would prefer to suppress life rather than nurture and cultivate it. We do not claim to have a “perfect” comprehension of the Divine or all that pertains to origin of existence itself—it is sufficient that we can prove our models superior to those ideas and models promulgated and used by the witting and unwitting architects and supporters of slavery.) EXISTENCE IS DEPENDENT ON MOTION IN FORM When the Divine decided to create the Universe— however that event might have taken place—it could only have done so by first positively identifying what it wanted to create. Then, after determining “what” it wanted to create, the next step must have been to determine how creation could feasibly be created and maintained—the “how” of creation would be what many call “Natural Law.” It is selfevident that in order for the Universe to be more than simply a static image, or an amorphous wad of energy, the Universe required structure and rules. Astronomical systems, energy systems, biological systems, ecosystems, etc., all need to be positively defined in order for the Divine to realize its goal of creating a functional Universe. The key to grasping Natural Law is to thoroughly contemplate the following: how do ideas project into dimension non-destructively, ad infinitum? If that sounds awfully complex, rest assured that a simple analogy will illustrate what we mean: simply imagine a software developer writing a piece of software. Obviously, one can’t write a program that contradicts itself or structurally undermines itself; otherwise the software will be faulty and crash. Similarly, the Divine necessarily must account for how information can project into dimension without cancelling itself out or introducing catastrophic computational errors, otherwise existence could not sustain. If the Divine did not perfectly account for how information would necessarily have to project and move within dimension non-destructively, then the Universe itself would have been a stillbirth. And this is why we have such things as distinct types of matter, consistent patterns of energy-exchange, biological-ecological relationships, laws of physics, etc.—this is why Natural Law is unchanging and, ultimately, unbreakable. Owing to the necessity for existence to follow certain rules, it would seem to follow that the Universe would be ultimately deterministic in nature. This is certainly true to the extent that existence cannot contradict its own premises—but this doesn’t necessarily mean that those very same rules don’t allow for a wide range of choice for individual minds living inside the Universe. For example, one can choose to walk off a cliff or refrain from walking off a cliff, but if one chooses the former, then certain consequences will necessarily follow. In other words, one has freedom of choice within a certain range, but no one can abrogate or suspend the operation of Natural Law (even with a giant hadron collider…). So if one chooses to walk off a cliff and then subsequently injures oneself or perishes, it bears no reflection whatsoever upon the “Will of the Divine”; instead, full culpability rests with the one who made the decision.
