10:55PM - I, Robot and God.
THOUGHT NUMBER ONE
God is perfect, right?
Have you seen I, Robot? Once scene has a voice-over saying something like "the three laws lead to only one conclusion." In the movie, the "three laws" are a concept of logical laws of protection.
1- A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2- A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3- A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
A perfect circle of protection, as Issac Asimov dreamed of.
If this is an example of perfection, then let us equate this with God
God = 3 laws = logical perfection
Yet in the movie, as in real life, there is an exception to perfection. Chaos.
Human = illogical imperfection
Yes sometimes God's allowances or decisions are above our logic.
Therefore, does God = illogic?
He can be. In our point of view, we can see only what is logical to us. God must be understood as super-logical. Though our logic cannot explain why God allows pain and suffering, God has super-logic. A reason for everything. Can it be that God has a touch of chaos? If chaos is the absence of order, does God qualify? What is order? Is order not a pattern?
Then, from our view, a pattern of life may not be viewed as a pattern. We may only see abberations and apparent chaos - random twistings of "fate". But are they? Can our lives and the events in them be part of a pattern? Order, chaos, order. From God's point of view this is a pattern, or rhythm. Soon to complete its final phases.
So is God both order and chaos? That depends. From His view, "chaos" is the downbeat in a rhythm of order. From our view, its just chaos.
God is both logical and illogical. If the Lord works in mysterious ways, it's perfectly logical. LoL.
