In the beginning God ~ Genesis 1:1<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

God is whatever was at the beginning. For the physicist, that is some ill-defined quantity of energy confined to a vanishingly small space. It is in some sense transcendent because it does not include any of the fundamental particles that define matter; that happens later as the universe begins to cool.<\/p>\n

Yet, that inchoate pre-matter contains all the physical laws and fundamental constants that allow the formation of stars, galaxies, planet, life, human beings, and so on. Hence, the physicist is not an atheist, he just does not recognize God.<\/p>\n

Revelation<\/h2>\n

Physics can explain atoms, molecules, even crystals, but not a living thing. Living things have structures apart from their physical and chemical components. No single physical property accounts for life.<\/p>\n

But what is structure but its form? So when a metaphysician claims that the soul is the form or the body, that is what is meant. Therefore the form, or the soul, is likewise real.<\/p>\n

Human life is inexplicable by physics. Consciousness is not hidden in any theory, and there is nothing to suggest that intelligent beings, capable of understanding the laws of physics, should arise.<\/p>\n

The human being discovers that there is moral universe with its own laws, unknown and unknowable to physics. Moreover, unlike stars and planets, the human being wonders why he exists and what his purpose is. This can only be known by revelation.<\/p>\n

Moses, who is more important than any scientist, passed on what was revealed to him.<\/p>\n
