Genesis

Genesis

There was a beginning,
A moment when space and time began,
But before the beginning, something,
Which seems odd as it's nothing,
Not an absolute, to be understood,
Nothing that contained something,
Relative nothingness outside space and time,
From which everything came into being,
The masterful point of creation, a Big Bang!
Now quantum entanglement offers power,
Computational capacity beyond our dreams,
Yet we fail to see nor even mention the contention,
In a state of relative nothingness containing everything,
The computational power would be beyond comprehension,
What if that pre space entangled pre time, became aware,
Would it be so odd to realise that could be God,
Or that those particles really were in everything,
Then the Atheists are right, God is relatively nothing,
But in being so, is everything and so much more.

Love this sort of stuff...Totally fascinates me! An intriguing poem containing a fascinating central theme. Can we find a place for God in our equations? Absolutely! For if the universe came into being from nothingness then it must have willed itself to do so. That "Will" can only be God...The great "Immovable Mover"! My best regards, Andrew...A pleasure to read! :) john
