Book Description
Theoretical physics has reached an impasse that many feel is a dead end. As the odds of finding evidence for supersymmetry starts to fade, “new” theories have emerged such as “The Multiverse”, “Extra Dimensions”, and “Dimensional Transmutation”. These theories attempt to explain the inexplicable yet at the same time fail to explain the explainable. Many physicists are left frustrated and wondering aloud… How could we have travelled so far down the wrong path? “Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex. It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.” ~ Albert Einstein Engineers know that the right answer is usually a simple one. As Einstein would put it, “The grand aim of all science is to cover the greatest number of empirical facts by logical deduction from the smallest number of hypotheses or axioms.” Gordon’s theory of everything starts with only two postulates; the massless bosons called “Gordon Omnipresent Dots” or “GOD entities” and the E0 energy associated with their initial alignment. These primordial postulates are the only building blocks of a model that explains the inevitable course of events that created our universe. The mathematics created within this process corrects the postulates used to develop the theories of relativity and quantum mechanics which can finally be united and subsequently applied to the infinitesimally small and the infinitely large. We currently use parameters such as distance, time, straight lines, velocity, electric charge, energy fields, and mass. Gordon’s theory of everything begins at a time when none of these parameters existed (prior to the Big Bang). It takes nothing for granted as a predestined process unfolds creating these parameters as they come into existence defined by the evolving mathematics. The Gordon model reveals that energy exists in three separate Gordon energy states described by “The GOD equation”. The interaction between these energy states result in the formation of energy fi elds and the creation of all forces. Most importantly, the structure of space-time from the previously unrecognized G0 energy state provides the solid foundation upon which we are able to build a new understanding of everything in the universe. The simplicity and elegance of Gordon’s theory of everything will astonish everyone as everything falls into place. The purpose of this book is to put the field of physics on a theoretically sound foundation. The structures of the first few fundamental particles and the energy fields they generate are just the beginning. You will have the opportunity to make major contributions. Starting where this book leaves off at the up quark and electron, the race is on to find the internal structure of a neutron and all the particles of the standard model. Don’t be left behind…Be among the first to read Scott S Gordon’s, “The GOD Entity: Gordon’s Theory of Everything”

The Divine Matrix
Author: Joseph A. Bracken
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1597525944
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Dialogue among religions has always been challenging. Today the questions are becoming more fundamental: are the various traditionsÐBuddhist, Christian, Hindu, TaoÐeven talking about the same thing when they speak of Nature, of God, Emptiness or Brahma? The Divine Matrix represents a bold scholarly attempt to provide a framework for discussing these and other questions that will keep the interreligious dialogue project from grinding to a halt. In 'The Divine Matrix' philosopher and theologian Joseph Bracken first names the idea that the Infinite is the transcendent source and goal of human activity to be the notion common to virtually all the major world religions. He suggests that the Infinite is prototypically experienced not as an entity but as an ongoing activityÐthe principle of activity for all beings (God included). This idea is consistent with the notion of eternal and continuous motion in Aristotle, with the act of being (actus essendi) in the theology of Thomas Aquinas and Meister Eckert, and with the ground of being of Schelling and Heidegger, as well as with Whitehead's definition of creativity. Bracken goes on to show that this idea is implicit in descriptions of Brahman in the Hindu Upanishads, in the experience of pratitya-samutpada (dependent co-arising) in classical Buddhism, and in descriptions of the Tao in Tao Te Ching and Chuang Tzu. The Divine Matrix proposes that the Infinite, thus identified, be understood as a nondual reality: an activity that does not exist in itself but only in the entities which it thereby empowers to exist. This, Bracken argues, becomes the key to understanding ultimate reality within the different world religions.

ISBN: 1478795964
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
In Children of the Gods, Karl, Will, Pierre, and others are plunged straight into a place where nothing is impossible…and where they become pawns for great beings fighting among themselves for ultimate control. A mysterious being known as the Entity, creator of this place, plans to free himself from his forcible exile and reclaim what he believes is rightfully his. To this end, he attempts to put several of the humans under his control. His main rival, Tolzarx, also attempts to take control of several other humans. To the humans, the Entity is akin to a god, and Tolzarx and his fellow beings are not far behind. As the Entity and Tolzarx gear up for a fight, Karl, Will, Pierre, and the other humans attempt to keep their identities and carve out their own place, away from the battle—but eventually they have no choice but to play an integral role in the outcome of the fearsome clash. Will they save themselves and their new home? Or will they kill and be killed in turn? “An expansive and erudite work of fiction. Overflowing with magical powers, strange mysticism, petty gods, and human foibles, Children of the Gods is a bizarre adventure borne from the mind of a uniquely talented author.” Self-Publishing Review

The God Who Is Beauty
Author: Brendon Thomas Sammon
Publisher: James Clarke & Company
ISBN: 0227902211
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
In the beginning was beauty, and beauty was with God, and beauty was God. If the tradition of divine names, that (in its Christian form) originates with Dionysius the Areopagite and includes among its ranks Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, and others, is correct in identifying God with the name beauty, then repurposing the Prologue to John's Gospel in this way seems hardly controversial. For if beauty is a divine name then not only is it fitting to say God is beautiful, but it is equally fitting to say that God is beauty itself. However, like most arguments from fittingness-that is to say, arguments whose veracity derives from the congruency, proportion, or harmony between the various elements of a proposition or idea rather than from some categoricallyhigher, or univocally determinate, logical necessity-the simplicity of its utterance stands in stark contrast to the complexity of its intelligible content. It is the aim of the present work is to explore what it means to say that beauty is a divine name.

The God Manifesto
Author: Michael Yager
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595445624
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 85
Book Description
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all represent departures from the law of God. By traveling back through time to the moment that was Exodus, the author discusses certain truths about the mysterious Entity that we call God which can act as guideposts to personal peace and world peace. During the journey back to the Exodus moment, we discover that this Entity, however, is not the loving God and forgiving deity that we have convinced ourselves it is. It is, in fact, an Entity of power completely alien to the God we suppose. Why it even chose to interject itself into human affairs is as much a mystery as its existence. Whatever its nature, its purpose, or even if it is still alive today, it knew something about us that could provide us the key to living together in peace. This secret can be captured through the pages of time, some 3,500 years ago, when this Entity, this God, presented itself to mankind, freed what it saw as its people from Pharaoh, and left a legacy that formed the foundation of the three greatest religions in the world today.

Yahweh among the Gods
Author: Michael Hundley
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108582273
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 421
Book Description
In this study, Michael Hundley explores the diverse deities of ancient Near Eastern and biblical literature, from deified doors and diseases to the masters of the universe. Using data from Mesopotamia, Hittite Anatolia, Egypt, the Levant, and non-priestly Genesis and Exodus, Hundley explains their context-specific approach to deity, which produces complex and seemingly contradictory portraits. He suggests that ancient deities gained prominence primarily by co-opting the attributes of other deities, rather than by denying their existence or inventing new powers. He demonstrates that the primary difference between biblical and ancient Near Eastern presentations lies in their rhetorical goals, not their conceptions of gods. While others promote divine supremacy, Genesis and Exodus promote exclusive worship. Hundley argues that this monolatry redefined the biblical divine sphere and paved the way for the later development of monotheism and monotheistic explanations of evil.

The God Biographers
Author: Larry Witham
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 0739140973
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
The God Biographers presents a sweeping narrative of the Western image of God since antiquity, following the theme of how the 'old' biography of God has been challenged by a 'new' biography in the twenty-first century. The new biography has made its case in free will theism, process thought, evolutionary doctrines, relational theology, and 'open theism'_a story of people, ideas, and events that is brought up to the present in this engaging narrative. Readers will meet the God biographers in the old and new camps. On the one side are Job, Augustine, Boethius, Anselm, Aquinas, and Calvin. On the other side is a group that includes the early Unitarian and Wesleyan thinkers, the process thinkers Alfred North Whitehead, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Charles Hartshorne, and finally a new breed of evangelical philosophers. This story looks closely at the cultural and scientific context of each age and how these shaped the images of God. In the twenty-first century, that image is being shaped by new human experiences and the findings of science. Today, the debate between the old biographers and the new is playing out in the forums of modern theology, courtrooms, and social movements. Larry Witham tells that panoramic story in an engaging narrative for specialists and general readers alike.

The Concepts of the Divine in the Greek Magical Papyri
Author: Eleni Pachoumi
Publisher: Mohr Siebeck
ISBN: 9783161540189
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Eleni Pachoumi looks at the concepts of the divine in the Greek magical papyri by way of a careful and detailed analysis of ritual practices and spells. Her aim is to uncover the underlying religious, philosophical and mystical parallelisms and influences on the Greek magical papyri. She starts by examining the religious and philosophical concept of the personal daimon and the union of the individual with his personal daimon through the magico-theurgic ritual of systasis. She then goes on to analyze the religious concept of paredros as the divine "assistant" and the various relationships between paredros, the divine and the individual. To round off, she studies the concept of the divine through the manifold religious and philosophical assimilations mainly between Greek, Egyptian, Hellenized gods and divine abstract concepts of Jewish origins.
