I have to wonder if this might not be evidence of the hidden not material world and our connection to it through our soul that is leaking through to our reality.
Think of it as static in the reality projector of God.
There may be something like that going on.
A lot of people for a long time have held to the belief that your thoughts and words shape your reality. Ive long believed that thats not just a psychological phenomenon, but a physical one. Its not just metaphorically true, its literally true.
And why should we be surprised at that? God made everything by speaking it. We are not God...but we are created in His image. The thing we each have that is ourself (the soul) is from Him and seeing that it is in His image, it (we) shares some traits with Him.
His words can create or destroy. So also can ours, not on the same scale or to the same degree, but the effect our words has is very real.
