That’s fine, but you don’t have to be a deist to appreciate the title. Moby named one of his songs “God Moving Over the Face of the Water.” The author chose to use a metaphor many of us are familiar with, and even some atheists connote “God” to the mysterious existence of the universe, symbolic to the many collisions of stars that led us here.
replyDon't be afraid to let a little poetry into your life.
replyDon't be curmudgeonly.
replyIt's fine as a poetic term. But no god is required. Just time, pressure and the laws of physics.
replySimple enough. Say, could you fabricate some new time, pressure, and laws of physics for me? Oh, and don’t forget the matter!
replySo many people carry this dull heavy just in their pockets to fend off all attempts to revive the sense of wonder they buried deep in their childhood.
replyFor me, just the very fact that there exist time, space, laws of physics, enormous complexity stemming from deceptive "simplicity", is absolutely awe-inspiring.
"Just" Could you create the laws of physics? If all of humanity got together in a common effort, could we make one law of physics or change one law of physics?
replySomething which has always existed, which created the entire universe, is ever present through space and time, and invisible. Something which can never be resisted because it is almighty. Not even for one second.
Something which will create beautiful sculptures out of dull stone in places hidden from the world.
>If all of humanity got together in a common effort, could we make one law of physics or change one law of physics?
replyIt wouldn't be a law of physics if it was something humans could change.
The term "God" doesn't need to be reserved for only the religious. We're allowed to be in awe of this place too.
replyThe religious have managed to make every YouTuber say "gosh" though.
replySuffer them to tarnation.
replyYou're not seriously trying to help.
replyI liked the title, and the pictures are nice too.
replyYou must be real fun at parties ...
