I’m curious about God. I’m pretty sure God exists, but I’m also pretty sure there is no Divine Intervention. This is because I have enough evidence to say that the universe creating itself is highly improbable, and yet I have no evidence that religious texts are literal truths. This puts me outside of both science and religion. That’s not a comfortable place to be, but it’s where the evidence has taken me. It does make me curious about God though. The laws of the universe God created say that anything existing inside of it is subject to its rules, which means God cannot live inside of it. It also means that laws were created at its inception which have moulded and shaped everything that lives. Life is a conglomeration of individual, vibrating bioelectrical forces, living within giant electromagnetic fields. We are packets of energy inside huge fields of energy. And this energy is overwhelmingly positive. Yes, violent negative forces craft the solid matter we live on, but the universe is made to have great value. It’s a beautiful place and life is at its best when it is peaceful, loving and positive. Aggressive, harmful, hateful behaviour affects us negatively and we suffer. This is the Plan. This is the design. It cannot be found in trying to upend decades of evolutionary science over the development of eyeballs, or whether we evolved from apes. Leave science to do science, and leave philosophy and religion to do theology. Non-overlapping majesteria. Besides, science isn’t disproving religion, it is revealing God’s design and I’m curious to know and understand more about it. It is a quiet, subtle and complex plan. It’s difficult to see, but it is there. I just have to find it. I feel like I’m in an exam hall doing my SATs and the teachers are stood on the sidelines willing me the answers. I’m agonisingly close, but still too stupid to know the answer. All I know is that curiosity will eventually lead me there.
