What a SPLENDID observation/insight, dearest sister in Christ!!!
And Heaven Forfend! that "truth" is something that can be discerned by a public opinion poll (for example) and not as something written into the very Foundation of the World, not to mention into each and every human soul. ...
Definitely I believe the following, as you wrote:
Only God the Creator can objectively perceive His creation. He and He alone sees "all that there is" all at once. Every where. Every when. And He alone knows the full number and types of dimensions (space, time, etc.)Not to mention the very number of "hairs on our head." Even those of us who still have hair on our heads cannot "number" them at all....
There is comfort in God's indefeasible Truth (LOGOS). It is the very origin and foundation of everything that naturally exists in our World; it is the source of both Natural and Moral law, which in mutual interdependence pervade the Universe, including the universe of men's minds. It is the source and paradigmatic order of Life and the everlasting Sustainer and Savior of Life — of human life in particular, and not by accident.
Thank you so very much, dearest sister Alamo-Girl! I find your postings on the math and science aspects of "problems" enormously illuminating!
You are so faithful in giving an accurate description of what you, an observer strong in the maths and sciences, have "observed."
What your observation points to is the everlasting mutual interdependence of Faith and Reason.
Yet most people nowadays (I gather) cannot even begin to imagine the problem you describe, let alone deal with a "description" of it. You "see" through your Christian eyes (and ears). They seemingly do not have a clue about what you are saying. At least, nobody comments on it, or asks further questions.
Too bad.
Thank you ever so much, dearest sister, for your outstanding essay/post!
bb, I thought I'd maybe get a twitch out of you when I admitted I was looking forward to singing harmony with the ETs in Heaven... <GRIN...>
And no comment on the "imaginary axis" "easter egg" I tucked in there just for you...
I must have lost my touch while I was "away"... LOL!!
Blessings and love in Christ...

A person who does not have a glimmer of this insight must surely lead a dismal existence. What hope could he have?
Truly, Faith and Reason are not mutually exclusive but rather intensify each another in our walk with the Lord.
God the Father has revealed Himself in four ways: through the Person of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ - through the Person of the indwelling Holy Spirit - through Scripture - and through His Creation, both physical and non-physical.
All of His revelations are consistent.
God's Name is I AM.
