“I find it as difficult to understand a scientist who wouldn’t
recognize the existence of a superior rationality behind the
existence of the universe, as it is to comprehend a theologian
who would deny the advances of science.” -Warner Von Braun
Let me start by explaining that this part of my theories and
writing is about a superior being in general (i.e. - God,
Yahweh, or Allah) and not about religion. Religion and belief
in God are two different things. Religion is the history and
practice of reaching God and/or heaven, while God in general
is a being or force. In my eyes, all prayers go to one God, no
matter the religion, because there is one God to hear them. If
any person believes in monotheism, they therefore must
believe that there is only one recipient of prayers and he/she
hears them all, no matter his/her name. I will not state my own
religious beliefs because, once again, this is not about
religion.
I will attempt in this theory to show there must be a
superior being working on the universe, a sort of supernatural
force. At the heart of this all is the laws of physics, the laws of
nature, and general mathematics each with their own
attributes. In the end, for those of you still unable to accept
that an unknown force exists everywhere, yet is untouchable
and unseeable, I will use science to show how, in reality, zero and infinity are based upon the same principles and could
even be the same.
As we begin this theory, I again urge you to read it without preconceived notions whether for or against, and try
to understand the theories rather than attempting to support or
disprove them in your mind. Whether you agree with the
theories or not can be determined after you are done. Either
way, I hope you enjoy the ideology behind all of this, and can
perhaps leam something about physics and math, if not God. I additionally hope that everyone reading this can see the
comedy in the fact that the one science banned by early
church officials and religious scholars is now the science
attempting to prove their beliefs.

Physics
I am sure most of you reading this have heard of Sir
Isaac Newton and his laws of gravity and inertia, and if not,
you soon will. Sir Isaac Newton stated that an object in
motion will stay in motion and an object at rest will stay at
rest until acted upon by another force. Think of it as a billiard
ball- it stays in one place until something hits it. Of course,
here on earth an object in motion will not stay in motion
because of gravity and wind resistance, but you can see that a rock will not move unless it is pushed or gravity pulls it when
dropped.
Inertia is a continuation of that law, in that if an object
is moving in one direction and is forced in another direction, it will move in both directions until one force is more powerful.
To better understand this think of riding in a car, when you
turn fast you start to lean the other direction and your coffee
spills the opposite direction from the one you are turning. That
is because the forward inertia of your body is forced in
another direction and the forces of motion must equal out. In
this sense, you are not directly turning right at 90 degrees, you
are turning right at different angles until you are at 90 degrees
in a curved turn rather than a direct change of direction.
With this understanding, we now look at space- a vast
emptiness of rapidly expanding emptiness containing
continuously orbiting balls of rocks and gas and vast fusing
particles. It is the properties of space, along with the laws of
motion and inertia, which initially prove the work of a
superior being starting with the big bang theory. The big bang
theory is, of course, the theory that everything in the universe
was compacted
one
infinitely dense
speck of matter t that exploded
and expanded
into the
particles and
universe we
have today
ultimately
causing cosmic
background
radiation. Basically, the universe was packed so tight, it was
one little dot until it exploded outward. The question we must
ask is, what created that infinitely dense speck, and what
caused it to explode into the perfection of life we have now?
According to Sir Isaac Newton‘s laws, an outside force must
have acted upon it. An outside superior force that either made
this point, set it into motion, or both.
Even further within the big bang theory is that this
infinitely dense speck of matter would have had an infinite
gravitational pull. Since mass is the property that defines
gravity, this speck of matter that occurred just before the
universe exploded and
expanded would have
more gravitational pull
that all the black holes
combined- which not
even light can escape.
Therefore, an outside
force capable of not
only acting upon this
object at rest, but also causing it to break its infinite
gravitational pull would be quite a feat, which no known
physical property today could break other than a superior
being.
Let us fast-forward a moment though. Today, we have
space ever expanding, always in motion, and the earth in
perfect orbit of the sun. To understand this orbit you must
understand Einstein’s general theory of relativity. This theory
states that anything with mass must have gravitational pull
based on that mass. Picturing this within space, is like when
you put a rock on an open blanket and it causes the blanket to
cone around it. Then by placing a marble on that blanket, it will move inward to the rock. Einstein asserts that structure of
space is the same way, pulling matter towards objects of mass.
This knowledge raises so many questions about how so many
of the natural phenomena occur in space.
How was the earth not been pulled all the way into the
sun at a 90-degree angle when even orbiting satellites
eventually fall back to earth, especially when the rocks and
gasses must have collided together from somewhere else?
What force acted upon the earth to make it spin in addition to
its movement around the sun? It seems like some outside
force must have been pivotal in causing all the motion in
space. Everything is beginning motion, everything’s change of
direction, motions placed perfectly in play and set off by some
unknown force that in the end resulted in our existence. Even
those that believe in coincidence must believe the laws of
nature and that something set it all off.
To complicate the matter more is everything’s motion
through the fourth dimension of space- time itself. As Einstein
had suggested, time is additionally a dimension on the grid of
x, y, z (the dimensions we see in, since we see everything in
3d) so surely the laws of physics also apply to the motion of
time, which must have been acted on my something, but that
it is a more theoretical area.
The final laws of physics I will bring up are the laws of
conservation of mass and the laws of conservation of energy
written by Antoine Lavoisier. These laws state that you cannot
destroy mass, because the matter will break and create
something of the same mass or several things that equal out to
the same mass. The same goes for energy. Even when you run
a car the energy from the gasoline become heat energy, kinetic
energy (motion), and expels and exhaust that has some energy
itself. With that, you must look at a dying human and say,
what will become of that energy? What will become of the
electricity of the nerves and the energy that lets us walk and
move? What will happen to their conscience? Surely, one
cannot believe in the destruction of conscience and mind, for
it itself has the ability and strength of any energy. Just as a mothers sense of love can cause chemical reactions to give
strength enough to save her child, the human mind is a source of unknown energy that therefore cannot be destroyed.
Further yet, with the two final laws, we must look again
to the big bang theory. Where did that infinitely dense point of
mass and energy come from? If it cannot be destroyed as told
by the laws of conservation of mass and energy, how then was
it created? How is mass and energy created if it cannot be
destroyed? The only possible source according to the laws of
physics must be a superior almost supernatural force.
A publication and discussion of the book: The Force that Acted - by Andrew S Edwards The Force that Acted is a short book tying together religion and science. From Newton's Laws in the Big Bang, the Properties of Zero and Infinity, and the significance of Jesus of Nazareth to Buddhism and Islam, the book explores the differences in concepts between the existence of a physically and scientifically proven God and the concepts of religion and culture.
