My sweet Lord, Mmm,
My Lord, Mmm, my Lord,
I really wanna see you,
Really wanna be with you
Really wanna see you, Lord
But it takes so long, my Lord
My sweet Lord, Mmm,
My Lord, Mmm, my Lord,
I really wanna know you
I’d really wanna go with you
I really wanna show you, Lord
That it won’t take long, my Lord
(Hallelujah)
My sweet Lord (Hallelujah)
Mmm, my Lord (Hallelujah)
My sweet Lord (Hallelujah)
– George Harrison (1943-2001) & Billy Preston (1946-2006), from “My Sweet Lord” (1970)
What my dear Thomas and I have been talking about in this space for the past few weeks has prompted a few of you to ask us whether in fact we can prove that there is a God. Well, of course we can prove that God is real, although you should not be reduced to having to ask lowly us such a very important question! Oh, dearly beloved Father, our Father not in heaven but within us, all through us, and all around us now! How You must be laughing at the absurdity of all your precious children, that we are reduced to such confusion, even now, in the twenty-first century!! We could have proven Your existence a hundred thousand times over by now, and in at least as many ways, and it would not even have been very hard. But those patently ridiculous scientific gatekeepers, the heads of the university scientific departments and the peer-reviewed scientific journals, they quite literally destroyed their own discipline in their foolish panic over the advent of quantum mechanics at the start of the twentieth century. Their minds were boggled, because they thought that a very ancient and sacred arbitrary line between science and religion had back then at last been crossed.
Well, yes, true enough, that arbitrary line had indeed been crossed. But it was a stupid line in the first place. The line that the first quantum physicists had crossed was a kind of gentleman’s understanding that goes back some twenty-five hundred years, all the way back to those great Greek philosophers, Plato and Aristotle. When I asked AI, that handy new expert on all things, to summarize Plato’s and Aristotle’s gentleman’s understanding for us so I could then explain it to you, here is what it said: “Plato was an idealist who believed truth and reality exist in a perfect, non-physical realm of “Forms,” accessible through reason and intellectual insight. In contrast, Aristotle was a realist who argued that reality is found in the physical world and is best understood through observation, experience, and logic. Key differences include Plato’s focus on abstract ideals versus Aristotle’s emphasis on the concrete and empirical, as well as their differing views on the ideal state and the nature of the soul.” So, Plato was sort-of the father of religion, while Aristotle was more or less the father of science. It made sense to the ancient Greeks to follow their two great, heroic thinkers, and to split all human inquiry into the fields of religious inquiry and scientific inquiry. So western thought has followed that pattern forever after. And never the twain shall meet!
Therefore, when more than a century ago it appeared to the mainstream scientific gatekeepers that quantum physicists might be close to becoming too spiritual, they panicked and imposed their “scientific dogma of materialism” on all scientific disciplines, as a stark prohibition on any scientist’s ever discovering God. Nope! Can’t do that, even if the genuine Creator is staring right at you from one of your test tubes, and winking and waving to boot. Since in fact, of course, a Creator does exist, and by now that Creator’s efforts are bountifully evident, watching scientists go about their work while they are still hobbled by that ridiculous old dogma is, quite literally, laugh-your-head-off funny, even despite the fact that it is also so tragic. Let’s look at just two current articles describing ways in which working scientists are still dealing with their by-now badly creaking materialist handicap:
Consciousness
OMG, talk about imposing a handicap! Here is a very convenient article from our personal favorite popular science magazine that catalogues more than three hundred and fifty different theories about the origin and persistence of consciousness, both materialist and non-materialist, which, taken together, detail what the current guesses are. But they’re boggling. They simply make your head hurt. Trust me on this: to attempt to read this article, or even to follow out its charts, does indeed give you such a headache! Look, most of these hundreds of theories can be proven to be dead-ends simply by testing them against some of the ways in which we know that consciousness actually works. For example, life after death is a proven fact, based on overwhelming evidence that is now more than a century old. None of the materialist guesses at the sources of consciousness which have it originating in the human brain will allow for consciousness to survive the death of the brain, so all of those theories can now be safely ruled out. Phenomena like terminal lucidity, remote viewing, and near-death experiences are all frequently reported, too, so they also make it likely that consciousness does not originate inside the human brain. If your theory of consciousness won’t allow for all of these commonly-occurring, consciousness-related phenomena, then it is a frank non-starter.
Advanced Research Physics
Some modern physicists have been reinventing their field, including attempting to put information at its center. I am not sure why this is true, but I imagine it is because, to date, neither physics nor any other core scientific discipline really has solved some of the most important remaining core scientific questions, which to now-living scientists seem to amount to these: What first prompted cells to begin to assemble themselves into organisms? And how did life begin? I would propose one more scientific question, which to me overrides them all: how is it possible that the human body is so exquisitely and complexly designed, with all its systems working so well together, if there is no Designer, and if our existence has no real purpose at all? The team in this video cannot answer any of these questions, of course, not with that atheist materialist dogma still in place; but you will enjoy the fresh zest with which the two in this video are at least trying to answer them! And my goodness, we can see how deeply they are struggling with that useless dogmatic limitation on their work, and how brilliantly they are trying to find ways to get around it. They cannot find a source for life, and you get the sense that they realize they probably never will find a source for life while their artificial professional restraint remains in place. These dear physicists are smart enough to be realistic about their sad professional handicap, above all.
Yes, Dr. Max Planck, who was the father of quantum physics, did in fact find God more than a century ago. And he was so joyous about it! Even the death of his son Erwin at Hitler’s hands in 1944 after a failed assassination plot could not, in the end, stem his pleasure in this discovery. Dr. Planck, who won the 1918 Nobel Prize in Physics as the father of quantum mechanics, insisted that it was impossible for us to “get behind” consciousness. He told us, in other words, that consciousness is the base, the grounding, of all reality. In 1944, that same year, he said, “As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear-headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter.” Well, bingo! The gentlemen’s agreement sort of line separating science and religion that Plato and Aristotle set up twenty-five hundred years ago was arbitrary and foolish to begin with, when reality is all of a single piece! It is past time for us to give Max Planck full credit for ending that old artificial split, which he did a full century ago now, and making all of reality one whole.
Max Planck discovered, too, that God is Consciousness. And a significant number of the more than 350 theories about consciousness that were cited in the New Scientist article linked earlier in this post also suggest something like that. Even my beloved spirit guide, Thomas, when I was four years old and he was teaching me to memorize my address, told me that we live within the Mind of God. And, so we do! This whole universe, and all of the astral plane, and much more besides: all of it is a thought in the Mind of God. And so when, early last century, those in the afterlife told us that dying and going to the afterlife was a lot like simply changing to a different radio station, of course that idea made perfect sense!
The real problem with the artificial division that our ancient and purposeless science/religion gap required of all investigative thought was that it halted the advance of open-minded scientific investigation altogether. Now no scientific query ever can be answered by positing a Creator behind what is clearly a deeply driven and purposeful creation, which therefore leaves all deep thinkers enmired in confusion. Only stop and think about this for a moment! We speak glibly about evolution, as if of course evolution happens. But why would life ever bother to evolve at all, if it never had a more complex creature in mind, toward which it was inspired to spur its own evolution? Why did all the aspects of our mouths, throats, and lungs evolve together toward human speech? Why bother? What was the point? Why did our bodies evolve toward bipedalism? For that matter, why did the sea creatures not simply continue to evolve, entirely randomly, in just the seas? Or, why bother to evolve at all? Why did any two unicellular creatures ever take the extreme trouble, at any point in all those billions of years, of ever bothering to combine?
By far the greatest proof that a Creator must exist is that YOU exist. And the odds against your existing at all are something like one in four hundred quadrillion, according to our AI friend, although given the extreme likelihood that this universe will either blow apart or collapse in upon itself in any given micro-instant if all those “cosmological constants” that keep this universe stable ever should stop minutely micro-adjusting for even one tiniest speck of a second, even those odds seem to be underestimating the extreme precariousness of our shared situation. And yet, we have no worries at all! Because the Creator that our scientific gatekeepers are so terrified of inadvertently finding is also an infinitely loving paterfamilias to all eight billion of us, and to all of reality. Max Planck happily understood that. And so, by now and very long since, should we also understand and accept it, too. As we all learned back in high school, matter can neither be created nor destroyed, but it merely changes in form.
Indeed, our bodies are marvels of intelligent design! Here is the first in a series of videos that will show you just how unbelievably complex and efficient your own body’s engineering actually is (we begin with talking about our bodies’ use of oxygen). And they tell us that this book about the new video series still to come is free to you. Again, my very dear ones, such incredibly complex engineering strongly implies that, without a God, of course a whole tribe of brilliant post-doc-trained engineers must have been transported from now to far back in time! Or else, you know, one doting Creator must love us very much indeed, to have designed humankind so supremely well. Which alternative seems to you to have been more likely?
Personally, I know that God exists, because there was that horrifying moment when I was eight years old, when God very briefly withdrew from me, and I woke up to a black and terrifying nothing! And then that glorious light flashed! So magnificent, so full of perfect and boundless love! It still feels, so many decades later, as if it happened only last night. And wonderfully, in all the many years since that night, God never has left me alone again.
I really wanna show you, Lord
That it won’t take long, my Lord
(Hallelujah)
My sweet Lord (Hallelujah)
Mmm, my Lord (Hallelujah)
My sweet Lord (Hallelujah)
