Are You, By Any Chance, God?
Once upon a time there was this hole in space, surrounded by stars,
planets, asteroids and fine things like that.
People who lived on the planets which went round the stars which in turn
went round the hole thought the hole was God.
The people were very small and the hole was very big so they decided God
was mighty.
In the greater truth of the objective universe the hole was but a very
little thing and within it there was nothing.
Yet were the people on the planets which went round the stars which went
round the hole wrong? For isn’t God said
to be everywhere? Wouldn’t that include
the empty hole? Indeed, can a hole be
empty?

Once upon a time there was a man who lived upon an island on his own. Never had he seen another two legged beast which walked with its back straight. He
was fit and strong and his brain was faster than the brain of any other
creature on the island. Yet he was an
ignorant man, weak and dull. He thought
he knew all things but he knew very little.
All the animals knew him and feared him, for he was God. He knew he was God but it excited him very
little for he had always been God and thus took his Godliness for granted.
Was the man, on his own on an island more right or more wrong than the
people upon the planets which went round the stars which went round the
hole? For isn’t God said to be within
each of us?

Once upon a time there was an anomaly in space, empty of nearly all
things, but because it was different all the creatures on all the planets which
circled round all the suns which circled round the anomaly feared it was some super weapon and were suspicious that their neighbours
on other planets which circled other stars, knew its secret.
Thus it was that the anomaly become the depository of fear, and the fear
grew so large it became a super weapon and destroyed the planets that went round the stars which went
round the hole in space where God lived and also destroyed the man who was God
upon his island.
Thus the anomaly / hole became filled with debris and gas and dust.
Did God die when the hole died and the man died?
………………………………………………
Listen. Once upon a time there
was a space anomaly / hole filled with dust, debris, gasses and the like and
slowly, even as the universe counts time, all these materials came together and
became for a nanosecond a great star which exploded with extraordinary
violence.
Over time the residue from the explosion, leaving a hole where the great
star had been, formed many stars and planets upon which creatures started to
creep and fly, swim and walk. And as
they grew in smartness and curiosity they found the hole and space and by
general consensus it was agreed that within the hole was God.
