Dear members. I had an idea that I have been thinking about for some time. I think that this topic is a relevant place to share my ideas. It involves "imagination" and I hope you will share your thought on it. It starts with some assumptions and using observations it leads to some conclusions. It proposes that god is an artist and that we are his works of art.
*Assumptions:* 1. The golden middle defined as being between 2 extremes is where things operate optimally. 2. The laws of chaos is in the golden middle between chaos and order. 3. Our universe operates under the laws of chaos which contains patterns within patters, all similar yet never exactly the same. 4. We humans find ourselves in the middle of it all. *Observations:* 1. Nature operates under the laws of chaos which shows patterns and cycles of patterns. 2. Nature is in the middle point as far as size is concerned between atoms and galaxies. 3. Matter is condensed energy. It can be likened to “things” and “thoughts”. 4. Imagination is thought that comes from outside. They are ideas or intuitions that appear without thinking. 5. Imagination precedes thinking and thinking precedes creating things. 6. Imagining is faster than thinking and thinking is faster than creating things. 7. Our creations are built on already existing things and are superior or an improvement of what already exists. 8. All complex things that are not understood can be simplified by analogies that are understood. *Conclusions:* 1. By observing our observable reality, we can indirectly observe the unobservable things in our reality like atoms and the boundaries of our universe. 2. By observing how we create things, like machines, we can get a feel of how nature was created. *Summary:* By using the above assumptions, observations and conclusions, we can in a cyclic manner make other assumptions that are on a higher level. *Higher level assumptions:* 1. Our creator evolved from energy and used imagination and then thought to manipulate condensed energy we call atoms to create a very basic form of life. 2. Very basic form of life evolved to the higher forms we see today. 3. We humans as creations of a creator are superior to our creator. 4. We humans continue this cycle of creation by creating machines that will evolve to be superior to us. 5. Anything that can be imagined can be later created to continue the cycle of creation.
