EDIT: Considering what I said, time could be a tree; the trunk is the general timeline, forming the base for all the personal timelines (branches) that deviate from it. Then the leaves on those branches could represent an organism's current existence in any given location on that personal timeline branch.

Then, maybe, the branches from those personal timelines could represent individual points in time (days, weeks, months, etc.), and then branches from THOSE timelines could represent smaller increments of time (minutes, hours, seconds, etc.) Of course, if you continue on like that time becomes a fractal. Though fractals really don't have an end, and if time began, time has to end somewhere.


thats the EXACT theme and theory of time that they had in the anime, Noein...*its a good anime, too---as i had mentioned before*

Well, give it a try. Its very interesting their ideas of time, space and all that. It gets really complicated in some parts, and makes you think and rethink---

well, it made me rethink sweatdrop lol but still, i would offer it to anyone to see. 3nodding

They talk about that anime in the December issue of Otaku USA. I read the article, and I believe you're on to something, Czarina.

Agreed. Personally, I like how more cerebral animes are making their rise to power. Death Note, Noein, and Spiral are just a few examples that I enjoy.

TOPIC! *cough sneeze*

I do like that fractal idea. What I'm trying to understand, though, is where the tree's seed came from. Is God tangible? Is God omnipresent?

God is omni-existent. He IS everything. All things are a facet of His Holiness. All existence is his existence divided, with all his powers equally divided thus.

Equally thus? How is it that one is a saint, then?
Equally thus? How is it that God is all and others are godless?

Exactly! As I said before, God is an imperfect being striving for perfection! He made himself everything else so he could attempt to learn perfection! A saint is just a concept created in this learning, an image of the perfection we all strive for.

What was God before "he made himself" such?

The Great Oneness. The Entity of Unity. He was All. And, in a way, he still is.

Hm, that could also be described as a blank tablet, nothingness---ready to become anything... 3nodding

That's right. In essence, God is a child.
