There are of course things which are both unknown and unknowable.... I would add particles and fields which have no direct or indirect measurable effect and the full number and types of dimensions.

Thank you so very much, dearest sister in Christ, for your marvelous insights!

Jeepers, I know you're busy. I hope and pray all is well with your elderly cousin.

When you are at leisure, I hope we can continue to explore these ideas....

The quibble over ‘multiverse’ is odd to me, from my perspective. Certain theoreticians want to imagine whole universes with different parameters of reality, some of these parameters don't even allow for the universe to maintain physical structure for long enough to spawn galaxies. I ask myself, if such a fleeting 'universe' ever exists/existed/will exist, does it not arise from a real set ofalready existing parameters? The question hangs upon 'faith' in cause and effect. So whatever EVER has existence, even if fleeting, that thing had/has a cause.

As the ancient Hebrews understood, The Creator of all is no thing else The Creator would be the result of some cause greater or earlier than The Creator.

Until Physicists figure out how many variable expressions there are for dimension Time, and how many variable expressions there are possible for dimension Space, the argument of multiverses sifts down to someone trying to set aside the cause and effect intelligence. God's name is I AM, and I AM did not have a cause, God is The Cause.

With any Physicist I would quickly agree that there are 'parallel' continuua (Daniel Chapter Five shows that reality; Jesus leaving from the stone-blocked tomb, appearing in a locked Upper Room, etc. shows that quite plainly), but to propose multiverses, as the current crop of theoreticians are trying to do is folly of the most arrogant kind, where man seeks to eliminate The Cause from effects. I happen to believe the source of such folly is the same created being who sought to usurp God's position though it is absolutely impossible for a created being to rise above the Creator because the created can never be uncaused and thus will always be vulnerbale to effect.

We were hoping to get her back to the nursing home today but it didn't work out. Perhaps tomorrow...

Any hoot, please keep pinging me to your wonderful essay-posts, dearest sister in Christ, I'll catch up as soon as I can.
