I suppose you could take it lightly...free will and all that.

It would be awesome if I could get a little more rationality from you and a great deal less hooey.

I am guessing bookstores are quite inept at properly labeling reading materials.

After all, it is probably best to check out the science section than the hocus pocus section.

And what was electromagnetism before scientists explored, worked out the math and explored the mechanics of it?

If you think current science is the end all/be all paradigm, you don't know history and you aren't doing science.

Hooey was on topic. Obviously.

Hooey was on topic.  Obviously.

The topic as I understand it: If there is a God, what is it's relationship to the universe?  Op postulated God was to the universe like the mind is to the human body.

I've asserted that God is like the Father to a Mother and the universe is the womb and everything in it part of a developing life form.  I haven't gotten into why yet.

I am quite certain it can be added to the hooey category, nonetheless.

Do you know the etymological roots of the words "father" and "mother"

You prefer to nitpick for eternity while I prefer you just spill the beans.

Father and Mother, Pater and Mater, pattern and matter.

Before the inflation of the BBT singularity, there was only pure matter in no pattern, no differentiation.

After the inflation, regular pattern is imposed on the matter of the universe which takes the regular and repeated basic unit shape of the atom.
