Normally, potential in the form of encoded information combines with an energy source in order to manifest as a thing. But a tree seed's DNA comes from somewhere, as does the energy which it uses to manifest that DNA into a physical structure.
You've said the seed originated from nothingness, THAT BEING AN INTRINSIC PROPERTY OF NOTHINGNESS. But why would you say that, and what does it even mean?
What I meant by intrinsic property is that by nature, an absolute nothingness leads to something to be created. Its something we yet don't understand about the nature of nothingness. I think Lawrence Krauss's theory of universe from nothing is what I am referring to.Probably it appears is a fact, why so is the mystery. The why part I tried to capture as "intrinsic" for now.
Lets look at GOD as Rightful Action,Positive thinking, Living the moment, Compassion, Love, Nature, Family, Friends and all life around us. Such a GOD is not supernatural, but is as real as the feeling of being alive.
