The Quantum Physics of God

And Life After Death.

 

“All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force…   We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind.  This Mind is the matrix of all matter.”
- Max Planck, Nobel Prize-winning Father of Quantum Theory

 

     In a dimension not accessible to everyday observation, there exists an uncreated energy of unparalleled power.  It is uncreated; therefore it has neither beginning nor end.  Like a majestic symphony of perfect vibrations, this energy is the creator of all that is, both seen and unseen.  It is the substance and the sustenance of the cosmos.  Because it exists in an unseen dimension, it cannot be readily seen or scientifically validated.  It must be accepted by faith.  We call this the energies of God.

--The underlying principle of Hesychasm in the Eastern Orthodox Church

     The most recognizable remaining difference between theoretical quantum physics and Theistic religious philosophy is semantics.

What if God Does Not Dance When I Play the Fiddle?

 

Twenty years of marriage down the drain! That thought kept driving the nail of bitterness deeper into my heart as I pulled out of the driveway at the little blue house on Keystone Avenue. My marriage was over. The snow was falling in huge flakes and the road was already covered and frozen. The February wind made it one of the coldest days I can remember. Certainly not the best of days to look for a new dwelling but there I was driving down New Allen Road toward downtown Memphis, Tennessee in search of a cheap rooming house.

Right there in the middle of that deserted road I stopped the car and sat silently, feeling the crushing grip of depression squeeze my soul. I felt like my life was over and a hot tear fell from my eye and burned my cheek, and then another and another until I was sobbing with broken heaving breaths. The thing that kept hurting me the most was my children. I love them more than anything in the world. I remembered just a few nights earlier, after another pointless fight with my wife, I had gone into their bedroom and looked down upon them and struggled with the guilt because I could not make their lives better.

This book explains how I found hope and help during this horrible time in my life.  It is a survival guide for the victims of unwanted divorce.

The Deliberate Enemy of Christ

 

         I was terrified of the loneliness and scared that the remainder of my life would be spent in this hideous void of human companionship.  I have felt lonely all of my life.  I have looked at others who seem to "fit in" and make close friends and buddies and I have hungered and ached to be like them.  I was a very sensitive child.  The first thing I remember as a little boy on the first day of school was a group of older boys hitting me and telling me how ugly I was.  I was very small and I remember trying to play baseball.  We would gather in a crowd and choose sides.  I was always picked last and usually there was an argument about who would have to "take" me this time. 

          I tried so hard yet seemed to fall so short of everyone's expectations.  I felt ever in the glare of my fathers stern disappointment and disapproval.  My older brother was a football hero who seemed to get all the girls and my younger brother was the "baby" of the family.  I was the middle child and I just could not seem to find my place.  And the more I hurt inside, the deeper I went into myself and hid in emotional isolation.  And now years later at age 35 I was more alone than ever.

     I did not want to live and I could not die.  I felt as though I had failed at every single thing I had undertaken in life and I cursed the responsibility of living.  In my mind I had lost everything that mattered to me, my wife, my daughters, my ministry... my home... everything was gone.  I had entered the valley of despair and I could see no hope and no future.  I finally settled it within my tortured soul - I would commit suicide.  For years now as my marriage had faltered and failed in spite of my best efforts, that dark demon had camped on my shoulder and whispered, “There is an easy way out... suicide.”  I had reached a place in my hell where I was willing to listen…
