I sometimes think God keeps me around just to see what kind of ridiculous connections I make in my semiconscious mind.
This morning out on the porch, I found myself having the need to sneeze. It was a resounding effort, followed by aftershocks. My mind entered sacrilegious mode, and I asked myself, “I wonder if God ever sneezes?” When we come across anthropomorphism of God, we hear about His hands and His feet and such. When the creativity really gets going, we talks about God‘s feathers. So maybe it’s not sacreligious to wonder if God has a nose and sneezes.
I know this is ridiculous. Somehow, I think that God could clear his cosmic nasal passages a better way. I also don’t really believe that God has a nose or need to sneeze, just to be clear. This is just the way my mind works in the dark morning. Sometimes it works that way in the light of day.
That took me to wondering about the Big Bang. Wouldn’t it be amusing to get up into heaven and find out that the Big Bang really happened, but it was just God sneezing. Think about how the matter of the universe was supposed to have spread faster than the speed of light. Think of how all the laws of physics have to be pretty much defy in order for the Big Bang to happen.
Don’t bother following me on Facebook.

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.
Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Yes…the big bang. God spoke all this into existence. Or…maybe He was clearing His throat. Or coughed.??
ReplyDeleteOf course that brings up the question of where we fit into the theory.
