Musings 4

I love my family so much.

I mentioned in an earlier musing regarding past cycles, that when the next cycle comes, the current cycle we're in will have become the past cycle. So in this respect, I can quite literally recognize a past cycle. Using this “logic,” one could say there were “infinite” past cycles. But as you know, God’s ultimate reasoning is that the only thing to truly exist is the here and now and that there weren’t past cycles. So how do we understand this paradox? An infinite regression of past cycles would suggest one timeline. If that were the case, we would never arrive at the current cycle. As I mentioned before, the only way one could accept an infinite regression of past cycles as the "truth" would be to view God as outside of space and time. That would be a transcendent God, and this is a falsehood. There is nothing transcendent about it. Even if you view the cycles as being transcendent to each other, the next cycle is contingent upon this one existing. Period. End of story. If I can’t pinpoint a cycle, in an infinite regression that I am in, then there was no cycle at all. The only cycle that will ever exist is right now. There were no past cycles. This is the higher truth that you must accept. Saying God is “transcendent” is just a fancy way of accepting a falsehood as truth. The ultimate truth is that God is the here and now, and there weren't any past cycles.
