160423: Personal thoughts: Why does the universe go to the bother of existing?
“Stephen Hawking adds, “Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?” - The Skeptics’ Guide to Eternal Bliss (2nd ed), Steve J. Williams, Lulu Press, 2009
Within the model of panentheism, it is not the universe which goes to ‘the bother of existing’ for the universe mathematically and scientifically is demonstrated to have a beginning and thus a first cause.
If the universe at one point was non-existent (we will explore in future Saturday blogs) then the universe did not go to the ‘bother’ to exist but rather some first cause went to the bother to ‘create’ the physical universe.
Panentheism is the only model of reality which clearly and simply explains why this non-existent existence would go to the bother to create a physical universe and produce a cosmological model demonstrating not only the reason why but specifically the mechanism of creation ex nihilio. (See book Panentheism Addressing the Whole of Reality found within the free books icon located on this site – all books free for down load in PDF format)
Simplistically put: The Creator of the physical universe created the physical universe in order to provide the mechanism to avoid ‘eternal recurrence’ and did so using via ex nihilio and symmetry.
It is panentheism and only panentheism which provides the answer to Stephen Hawking’s question as well as a myriad other questions science, religion and philosophy have been unable to resolve. (Again see books found within the ‘free books’ section of this website.
