is outside of that sphere? Is “God” inside the sphere or outside the sphere… or both?
I don’t know if information is ever lost or not, but I think like anything else, it probably changes or evolves depending on the environment. If the earth or universe started out as a primordial soup or from a big bang… it has likely undergone many changes along the way, some of which worked well and some which did not… again, depending on the environment. And then that begs the question… what causes the environment to change… inside forces or outside forces, or both? And what existed in what form before the Big Bang? Is it all just a never-ending cycle of dust to dust, never knowing what new varieties and species will pop up next time?
If there is a god watching from the outside somehow, I rather doubt that even s/he knows what will pop up or happen next. But in the meantime, I think we would all do better following the example that Christ set… do unto others, be kind, be good stewards, teach our children well… We may never know what fate will befall any of us in the end, but it is our children who will have to live with or try to change or adapt to the consequences we leave behind. If we love our children, we should want to leave the world a better place for them, not worse. And if we leave it worse, it’s doubtful that they will be singing praises to our memory or any of the ‘gods’ we concocted or alluded to, either. Might be more like… a lot of gnashing of teeth going on in that Petri dish?
