But that's post-creation, ***During those first 6 days of creation, it was not "post-creation". And there's a bible verse that says something to the effect that God continues to create, which is a good clue about why our universe is still expanding.
where the deity is crossing from (let's call it) heaven into our space-time (earth). ***I think a better expression is that the deity is CREATING our space-time. Is the deity omnipresent in terms of being everywhere at all times, ***Probably. or is he/she/it only at one place at one time, but can instantly change time and position? ***Such a deity would appear omnipresent even by today's terms. This is a question we won't be able to answer in our lifetimes. My question is about the metaphysics of where/how/what "heaven" was before creation. ***Well, I answered your original question. Now you want to expand it into areas where I have diminishing interest. There's basically no scientific (and probably very little spiritual) value in such a discussion. Is there a meta-space and meta-time, and if so, is there a metaphysics to describe it. ***There certainly isn't a metaphysics for it. But the bible is far more relevant to this discussion than other supposed spiritual works which describe earthquakes as the result of elephants jumping up & down.
