ok so this we're going to handle today
we're going to handle the three biggest
burning issues of Judaism in general and
and really the ultimate issue is why is
this relevant to me in my life why is
this really make a difference and number
one is is there a god number two is the
Torah really God's will you know there's
other people think God wrote books you
know why is ours the definitive word of
God as opposed to theirs right and and
number three is even if you say these
are that there really is a God and you
say that sign I really happen who says
the transmission of Torah is an accurate
transmission right and get those three
questions I think we'll do this in three
parts we'll see how far we get with each
part and we'll take it from there okay I
like to go first of all with God
question I'd like to go with the the
simplest answer of all the answers it
was brought by the rambam but we'll
we'll make it especially clear and the
simplest of all the answers is that
we're handling three questions here is
their God GOG of the turret mount sinai
and three is how do we know the
transmission of what is a Jew and how
does that you live his life accurate
today so we're going to go with the
simplest understanding of God and that
is that the that the world didn't create
itself it doesn't stand to any reason or
any logic for us to think the world
created itself we know the world was
created we know there was a time so to
speak where there was no world whether
you're a big banger and you believe that
God created the world from
you know a speck of matter and that was
a condensed you know intensely condensed
you know piece of matter that exploded
into the Big Bang so before that little
speck of matter there was nothing or
you're into Genesis if you're into the
book of Torah of Genesis before there
was something that was not eat way
you're starting with nothing and when
you start with nothing and then you have
something it's already defies all
possible logic because everything in the
physical world is cause and effect this
table is the cause of a preview is the
effect of a previous cause which which
wherever they made this table whatever
they made it out of also had a previous
cause that created the metal for the
table in the wood for the table
everything it's always caused in fact
everything comes back you know every
chicken came from an egg right every
tree came from a seed that was in a
fruit of a previous tree in previous
fruit so so everything in the world's
cause and effect so why would I think
that the the world itself was not caused
by some kind of creator it had to have
been made by a being because if there
was absolute nothingness there's
absolutely nothing to create it which
means it would never been created even
that speck that condensed piece of mask
that they want to say the Big Bang
started with even that wouldn't exist
unless God created it to begin with
because there otherwise there would be
absolutely nothing yeah you wouldn't
have that question because it's nothing
how can you have nothing nothing doesn't
exist anyway Oh like that you could say
that just as well it happens to me we
don't we know it wasn't meaning that
there wasn't just a particle sitting
around there was there we just we just
know there wasn't in science we know
there wasn't I wasn't
the particle sitting around there was
nothing there wasn't God doesn't exist
in the way you think things exist for
sure God doesn't exist how can something
that have not that God doesn't exist but
how can something have made something
that always exists the world definitely
ought doesn't always a world crew was
created and and the world was created
and began and went like if you're into
Genesis it says in the beginning so
there's the beginning if you're in a
science so before the Big Bang there was
and there began the world okay but God
doesn't exist in physicality God doesn't
take something of space and time what's
the question he's not he doesn't have
any existence he's pure that's what I'm
saying where any concept you've ever had
a God always exists has to have him it'd
be this being that would that exist we
don't have any not in any way you think
existence exists doesn't but it would be
it would be highly illogical that the
world made itself from nothing and so we
call that
then they exist the way we would
understand existing looking out of
nothing and say that there is a we say
the world cream out of nothing yeah and
that nothing is what we call God we have
no idea what it is just like you can't
conceive of nothing and you might say
there's nothing in my hands their fault
full bear we can't the human mind can
conceive of them as something but you
cannot scientifically analyzed nothing
not there there is no better'n nothing
exactly except for what what's the big
issue that makes us start wearing suits
us and keep us and keeping kosher all it
we already said it several times now
Steve remember we have good common sense
logic that what it's exactly what we
said good that what forgot you knew I
knew your name I didn't want to guess I
know that's already breathe let's bring
up another issue but but the point is
for us is is that the the fact that
there's a world here is why we call it
God if there was not a world if God
never made a world we would never call
it God right
just because there is a world doesn't
necessarily created it see where'd it
come from then out of nothing but that
nothing probably had a lot to do with
making the world there was no Home Depot
a weird guy God got the world from Home
Depot there was nothing not any not any
physical form the physical universe God
does exist how God exists but we have no
idea what that is so if there was no
world so it wouldn't exist anyway
because it doesn't it's not made of
anything there's no existence to it
however now that we have a world that
means that there's some being that has a
lot of intention that made the world
nothing doesn't make anything sorry
nothing makes nothing nothing always
makes not never changes no no you're
doing great your your believe me your
this is normally when someone talks to
the teacher everyone else shuts down
you're doing exactly what needs to
happen right now you're keeping everyone
in they do they do i do too i just been
through this many times okay if you want
to say that that mean it works I creo we
can call it a creator and the once you
start getting into the design then it
goes even further wow what design but
let's just say a creator right because
nothing makes enough
exactly will never understand we have no
idea we are knowing that what Howard
happened what happened well man
Kabbalistic me they speak a bit about it
but not a ton but the we know nothing
about it we know a lot a lot more about
the world than we know about God we
don't know much about that we know
nothing about the world well you have
scientists with their theories and you
have kabbalists with their tradition and
we do and where the world come from
itself what's itself what's itself is at
itself none of that exists none of that
existed either right not exceeding
exists in space-time light nothing none
of that stuff is God he didn't exist in
any of that that's not what God is God
is not light but where God is exactly
the best word you could use it mean what
does God mean to define the word God to
find the word god I'm asking you to
define I think that's important don't
you define the word God you use the word
God's you might as well know what you're
talking about
okay but those are all like like more
about God's ability answer nothing he
has no definition see well now you're
going into design once you start looking
at the design the answers because you
look at the design you're like whoa this
a there's no mistake one over that is so
greater than one over infinity so what's
going to have created created snarling
monkeys right the question is like if
you type of you SAT among key right
Sanofi down and he just typed away what
are the chances that he would come up
with a Shakespeare right it would get
would probably get less likely the
longer types even though it seems like
it should get more likely it's just
never going to have the answer is never
it will never happen over that whatever
it is i replied were created from Jason
if it was an infinite amount of time one
over that no matter what it is
probability y is scientifically wise
work great so we're saying if the world
d create was see that works against that
argument because them because the the
amount of that is is it's such a vast
meaning uh I forgot what the
mathematician said but it was something
like you'd have to have like you know a
quadrillion big bangs to create one
earth and that would only happen if
there's a god I mean it just would never
happen and there was one bit
the effect is the universe is not
infinite the universe very finite and
there's been one big bang and there was
an earth that popped out from that so
amazing beautiful there must have been a
god and could say that no time a world
like this would have been created you're
right it would have been trillions of
years more than that right but then
you'd have to ask but then you'd have
the whole issue of humans humans
procreate another issue humans are major
problem in that discussion because
humans spend they spend all their time
thinking about anti evolutionary the
humans are like kind of anti
evolutionary for various reasons but one
of the most important is that that human
beings incredible desire for
understanding why or how God created us
leads to non evolutionary things it
leads to God awareness leads to working
less because now you start like resting
one day a week it leads to giving which
makes you less apt to survive it it
leads to me the whole human
introspection and extra spection they
discover the desire to to know reality
and will lead first of all it just
doesn't make any sense how we would have
been developed such a way because it
leads to non evolutionary findings we
defy all norms of evolution and survival
now there's a problem whenever you're
talking probably there's always a
probability of every possibility but but
your loot you have to suspend all common
sense at that point so you keep loving
to go back to this probability business
but your every time you do that you're
suspending common sense no you're not
you're suspending common sense what
you're doing is you're trying to say
anything is possible so
we can get God out of our picture when
the most simple you heard of Occam's
razor in philosophy razor and some
philosophy department outcomes razor is
that the simplest answer is usually the
right one you're going exactly opposite
of Occam's razor it's very simple
because because nothing makes nothing so
the simplest thing is to say that this
world was created there is none no even
if you go Big Bang you'll notice every
professor starts a big bank land I've
been in the classes I've been in both in
high school and college they always
start with that spec they never you
can't even discuss you raise your hand
you get thrown out of class you want to
talk about where the spec came from your
trouble they always start with the spec
well that's very convenient to start
with this back let's talk about what was
before the spec why common sense no not
created from something use that language
you'd say you'd have to say it was
always there the spec of mass was always
there that's where you'd have to say
much more
it makes the most common sense that the
world was created because it comes from
nothing there's no such thing as lighter
specs and nothing I could tell you I
taught this class to the MIT technion
university of physics okay I taught it
to the physics has not one person in
there argued about the fact that the
world's made of nothing but you somehow
are arguing about it that's what they
say they say the physicists say that
there was definitely not a speck at one
point the Specht was put there what put
the spec there is a question mark we
don't know they don't say that they say
they don't know what puts bad because
nothing exotic well nothing will
certainly wouldn't make a world you
can't you cannot because because the
only way you could possibly figure out
that would you need some kind of
scientific measure you need some kind of
scientific measure how do you how do you
measure scientifically nothing mm that's
a that's a bit of another subject but
they but what they're trying but what
you'd have to do is have some kind of
instrument of measure that goes outside
space and time you're never gonna have
an instrument of measure that goes
outside is design they know there's no
such thing all physics all these things
they do with particles proton Neutron
electron quarks and gluons and and their
particle splitters and then they have
over in England and looking for the god
particle all that stuff is theoretical
physics because science is science ends
where space and time begins second you
have space and time you are no longer in
science you're in theory now there's
plenty of sciences theoretical
because there's because no because
theory is theory is basically it always
leaves it a question mark what it's not
a question mark at all giving up god no
no no you understand you're
misunderstanding a question mark when
you go in in the in the physics of it if
you just leave it as a question mark
yeah which is what most scientists I
meet like to leave it as okay I mean
Hawking's has a bit of a foot spa to
like start talking about atheism itself
even the biggest atheists most outspoken
atheists in the world in England what's
that guy's name huh talkington even
Richard Dawkins no longer claims to be
an atheist you know about that he's at
yeah he's he's now calls himself an
agnostic and he's like what that's what
he says basically but but there but now
he went to agnosticism anyway the bottom
line is is that the is that most
scientists you'll meet will call it a
question mark and they leave it a
question mark meaning though I've had I
had a major physicists in my class was
amazing and he was in specifically the
study of looking for the one unit of
matter that that's the unit of all
creation yeah forgot what it's called
any but that's the job of theoretical
physics anyway he himself said that the
that the that it's always was a question
mark and will remain a question mark in
the world of science what made the world
yeah but but the that's because they're
scientists that's their job their job is
to measure matter their job is to share
their findings when they are looking for
their look they're trying to look for
some kind of observable phenomena that's
the job of a scientist now here we don't
have there's never going to be an
observable phenomena because it's
outside of time and space you can't
observe something outside sendspace so
you're relegated to theory
whereas whereas when you discuss with
such physics including the physicist who
was in this class when you discuss with
him that they that that di that nothing
existed before there was something yeah
you listening nothing existed before
there was something so in Judaism we
call that nothing God you explain to me
why I'm saying that maybe you're just
missing this what's your name yoni you
know you tell me why am I saying it's
God is hardly giving up no you're wrong
that's not what I was saying that's I
think though that's where you're off in
what we're saying you gotta listen with
a more diffuse thinking less lesser
that's fine listen no no it's clear I
think I think everyone's making this
mistake a little bit but listen Gary
this is it's very subtle but really
important to get is that nothing yeah
and then something means that but
nothing had to have had a lot to do with
the something whatever that nothing is
yeah well then you'd never have a
creation here we go ahead you never have
a creation of the nothing's truly
nothing if nothing's absolute nothing
it's none notes it doesn't take up any
space or time or anything it's not light
it's not light energy it's not anything
it's something that's completely and
totally inconceivable but it set the
world in motion if you want to be like
we just did that's what I said call it
call it a slaughter that's why we love
the word God because God doesn't mean
anything what does God me doesn't mean
anything g OD the word g dash D means
absolutely nothing in fact it's my
favorite name of God by the way over all
the other names we is Elohim Chuck hi
odna you know olive salad known you
would I my favorites actually this one
you know why because it means nothing
and that's what God really is doesn't
mean anything so it's the coolest name
of God because it really has no meaning
every person you will ask will have a
totally different definition and
everyone's wrong because it has no
definition not nothing created something
nothing created something what right
we're on the same page we've been on the
same page I just I think we just had to
get there somehow that's already going
to what God's capable of God's not
coming out of nothing the world's coming
undone and God is nothing God is nothing
okay perfect whatever your concept of
God is exactly wrong any concept you've
ever had a God is exactly wrong cuz it's
nothing
Roman keep going okay so there's really
step two so step one is before there was
something yeah there was nothing no
there was just nothing there was
absolute nothing is there was no
relating to anything there was nothing
no i didn't i said something had to had
to have come from the nothing but right
now there is no something this isn't had
to do with it not but listen before just
stick with this uni just go step by step
before there was something what was
there nothing nothing before there's
some of there was nothing before the
spec before anything before the light
that made this bag of you notice it
before light energy there was absolutely
nothing we can't conceive of that and
that nothing now it's impossible for
there to be a world from that nothing
unless of course that nothing has the
ability to make the world that's not
nothing made it Steve can you help oh
why don't we do eternal universe so they
first of all a lot of Eastern traditions
go with eternal universe Hindu goes with
eternal universe the reason we do it is
number one is Jews which is our second
subject of Sinai we believe this book's
divine and it and it does say that there
was a beginning this is Bray shoes but
you'll see it translates in the
beginning
before there was Sinai yeah what there's
and the word itself doesn't even mean
beginning but the word duration but they
but the point is is that they are
tradition is that God created the world
from absolute nothingness and then the
world was created if you read the story
I mean it's like have you read the
jettison you ever read the book very
good point that you need the Hebrew no
but I'm just saying if you look at the
story it's clearly talking about there
was in the beginning of God's creating
the heaven and the earth which would
automatically tell me that there was a
point where there was no heaven and
earth but rather God created them I'm
sorry this is based on the gist this is
just what we got at Sinai now we also
have the other reason we say is
beginning meaning right now all we're
doing i hope the only items face down on
the steves question but they but what
we're doing right now is just dispelling
this eternal universe concept which is a
more of an Eastern concept scientific
findings oh you know what there was a
period of time around Einstein's time
where they wanted to say they were very
uncomfortable with this expanding
universe thing because if you say
there's an expanding universe it means
it's expanding from a point wait when
you see something expanding it means
it's expanding from a point that word
started expanding what's the problem
with that is they knew and everyone
knows that once you start from a point
where it expands from you have God
because something had to make it a start
for someone had to make it and make it
start so what they won't had a theory of
an expanding and contracting universe
which would fit better with the
Easterners yes
wow that's an amazing question okay wait
so you have that question why would God
bother that's amazing we don't have an
answer for that Judaism doesn't answer
yeah it's a I see a question why would
he create it finite as opposed to
infinite I mean you have to understand
June we don't believe you created it we
don't exist this is all none of the
creations ever left God's mind gender
say what I'm saying so we are part of an
infinite universe but as far as what
your mot and what the little part of you
that feels like it's in this room right
now and the time started at ten ten we
started and we had 11 and all that
clicking away of time is all a figment
of God's imagination
because this this figment of God's
imagination started then yeah it started
at a certain point but it doesn't
actually exist in any empirical or
absolute existence it is completely
subordinate and within the mind of God
all physical existence watch what
happens let's just go through this again
before there was something there was
nothing okay no before there was
something you can't have anything that's
the number one number two is that God is
so just like there was nothing before
something we call God we call that
nothing I should really flip it around
because that's going to come down here
that nothing is what we call God okay
that's what we call God which we've
already discussed back and forth a
million times you say why do you have to
fall into God and I and I say because
it's common sense because absolute
nothingness would never make something
number three and four are together there
are the two things we know about nothing
of God nothingness of God number one is
that it is one okay meaning you can't
have two nothing's that clear once you
have nothing its absolute oneness it is
a unified undifferentiated reality or
lack of reality because there's no
nothing there but it doesn't you know if
you multiply nothing by 30 would you get
it frame we're filer front what do you
get nothing it's nothing and it has no
parts what we're not
sensing mathematics right now it's
oneness it's undifferentiated oneness I
just put one because in schmatte says
Akkad but it's really what uh what
re-sing it just doesn't have any parts
yoni no no no math we're not math
classes I've been doing this a lot of
years I used to like just like a time I
understand it's cool but that's why
you're picking it up because you're
picking it up on your radar some of you
got anyone else picking up in the radar
yoni's fighting you were to the rest of
guys were with yoni i was with the Oni I
was totally with yoni so but the thing
is you guys are picking up on your radar
for whatever reasons you guys pick that
up in your writer yoni's been doing very
good very good and I don't want to
comment more but the but we're doing
fine we're doing fine chill out I
wouldn't take a deep breath and the butt
but I have to explain something to Yanni
and to the other four guys who are all
cool with this discussion you've been
cool with it you got the experience
factor yeah okay so fine listen bit yeah
re yeah that's why you're here probably
because you have the experience to they
would they what i mean by experienced
factors they experience things where God
would have to be
you also had some anomalies that yeah so
you have the experience factor yeah it's
amazing it's made so many times by the
way in my life I had the experience
factor whereas like okay there's a god I
can never ever deny that again and then
like a monthly it was gone you know a
month later is all out the window and we
learned that the get the tour was given
at Sinai in 40 days later we're sitting
at the golden calf so the experience
factor what we're learning from this is
that the experience factor must be
backed up by some logic to hang in there
when the when the experience is gone and
I don't know you know it's a memory of
the experience and I need to be able to
back that up but there's something else
I want to share with everybody and then
it's something called called diffuse
thinking there's two types of thinking
what what you've been doing right now
has been and what the opposite of
diffuse of focus that cute what yeah
they're both critical thinking but
diffuse thinking would be an aspect of
critical thinking where there's you're
going to get to the truth of it better
it would be like um maybe like you ever
seen those pictures where if you stare
at them long enough you get to see
something totally different that's 3d
inside of it you ever seen those they
were like popular like 25 years ago you
know I'm done yeah so when you look at
the picture you just pass a picture you
like oh that's yeah kind of ugly a
little ugly a lot of specs and
everything but then someone says why are
you staring to it for a few minutes you
stare into it at one minute goes like
two min ago three minor you're like I
was getting a little boring they like
just keep looking keep looking and then
eventually boom you're in yeah so what
happened what shifted because because
the image you see inside that picture
really is there what happened was when
you were looking at at the beginning
you're looking at with I'm gonna call it
a cue cuz i dont on the right word but
you're looking at with an acute with a
cute thinking of critical thing you're
looking at within an acute
it's all you saw aspects and was getting
quite boring standing there staring at
those specs but what happened as you
stared at it is eventually your mind
allowed you into what's called diffuse
thinking and in that diffuse thinking
you got to see what's there and it
really is there because the artist put
it there was embedded in it was embedded
inside there it exists but it only could
come to the mind when you went to the
diffuse thinking so I'm using that as an
introduction i usually use i do a course
in kampala my emphasis over the years
has been in kampala but i usually use
say what i just said you guys I'm said
in years because I'm done the course in
years but I used to do a course in
Kampala it's a whole semester here
university that was that started with
teaching about diffuse thinking so
you've been approaching this whole
decision with a cute thing which I'm
happy to do this is essential I'd come
with you guys are I don't not here to
like okay breathing on my level I'm with
you so I want to be if you want to go
cute thinking it will go cute thing but
there is a point where the diffuse with
your cute thinking can get a little too
strong you start losing the fact that
nothing has no parts once you can't
agree with nothing having no parts you
know a cute thing he's never going to
get anywhere in this discussion whereas
its various diffuse thinking is of
course nothing has no parts you
understand in diffuse thinking I know
that 30 times nothing is nothing it has
no parts it is an absolute
undifferentiated whatever not it's an
undifferentiated nothing now what's cool
about that separate subject what's cool
about that is if you go through this
entire book never does it say there's
one God you know you know it never says
there's one gun in this book if anything
it insinuates there's more than one God
because you have the second commandment
of the Ten Commandments is don't believe
in all these other powers out there
don't have it don't ascribe power to any
deity or any other thing who said
anything about other powers whoa like
the tour itself admits there's other
powers it admits there's some kind of
metaphysical realm of power out there
and it's saying but pledge your
allegiance pledge your allegiance to the
power of powers the medic Malcolm look
I'm the king of kings right the power of
all power but it never says that there's
one God what does it say though in
Schmeiser oh that's from the Torah would
say hear o Israel the Lord our God the
Lord is one absolute oneness the tort it
doesn't say hero is the Lord oh god
there's one of him it says here the Lord
God the Lord is one its absolute
undifferentiated oneness whatever the
nothing is is one that's one of the
commandments by the way thank them is
that there is a God one of the other
Commandments is that God is absolutely
one so if you get the gods one if you
just get that in your mind that nothing
means undifferentiated the commandment
it's like putting on a pair of to fill
in it's like eating matzah on Passover
it's like sitting in a sucka seriously I
have to us think about this concept
right now just think that thought that
of undifferentiated oneness think that
thought for a second you got yourself a
midst it's one it's listed by the rambam
as one of the 613 commandments is to
just think about the fact that God
exists in undifferentiated you got a
mitzvah right there it's like you gave
stuck or it's like you put on a mezuzah
it's like you put on tefillin you all
you have to just think about that for a
moment or two just think about thee that
before there was something there was
nothing that we call God it's another
Mitzvah that's in the ten commandments
that you should believe there's a god is
in the ten commandments and what is
Rambam say because this old discussion
has been Rama this is rom bombs first
cause proof okay you guys realize we've
been discussing Rambam this whole time
this is rom bombs first cause proof and
does he say that the first commandment
is to believe there's God of the Ten
Commandments nope he says you have to
know the first commandment around mommy
you must know who's got not believe he
makes it very clear belief in God you
did not fulfill a commandment you have
to know belief is something that lacks
evidence and lacks critical thinking as
you were saying but it's something I
would like to believe or something like
like you must believe there's Emma ships
coming for example I know I believe it
yeah and what can you know I don't want
to discuss it now because it's after
four but they but normally I'd be open
to it the but that knowing there's a god
according the ramen by the way the right
the rom bond argues and says belief is
fine you fulfill a commitment believe in
God but the rambam says no you don't if
you haven't gotten to the logical steps
and the rom ha speaking all the realms
Rambam run on Vaughn room how Ron Paul
you know what he says in his first line
of the way of God derrickfish him he
said he he went convenient waves it
every Jew must believe and know that
there is a first cause he says both and
then he goes on first paragraphs about
belief he says you get it from your
parents when you're raised they teach
about God you don't know anything buddy
they tell you about God belief and then
the second the third paragraph of the
book is he defines the word no he says
that you have to use your critical
thinking after go think about which what
we're doing now before there was
something there was nothing that nothing
is what we call God there is that God is
undifferentiated that is
that and again I wrote the word
intelligence I could write a bunch of
other words i could write consciousness
i could write intention intentioned but
because of the nature of nothing is to
remain nothing get that the nature of
nothing is to stay in that state of
nothing the fact that it for some reason
set in motion our world our creation
means that it knows what it's doing it
has some kind of intention whatever that
nothing is it intended for creation
otherwise would never because nothing
just stays nothing as something that
stays absolutely static which nothing
could only be static stay static unless
there's some kind of thing that puts in
motion in this case there's no it it's
nothing but a ball that sits on the
table it stays on that table unless
there's a force has to have some applied
force to make that ball move whether
it's gravity or it's wind or something
else has to be applied to something here
we're talking about nothing is nothing
that devil eastes nothingness but if
that nothing is suddenly like set
something in motion which obviously did
or we wouldn't be having this discussion
right now here on earth it set something
in motion so it must know what it's
doing now again I could have written
anything here I wrote intelligence just
because that's the way they call an
intelligent design and in science world
of course you can lose your you could
lose your status as a professor
University for saying in tough back that
intelligent designs like considered very
unpopular in the atheist circles but
that's the whole fight if you go online
you'll see it all the fights on my blogs
are intelligent vs random designer I
don't know what the other term is they
use whatever so that so anyway but the
whatever the nothing is it knows what
it's doing in a has to note is doing
even before you get to design without
design just the fact is nothing will
stay statically nothing and the fact
that
kick the world into existence means that
it knows what it's doing it's got
intention okay man we got to start going
into what's its intention and all that
stuff at when you discuss I live there's
there's going to be five and six but
we're not going to do those right now
Stevie have a question yeah he is that
you said well that's exactly it's
nothing and everything he is it means
everything well because then that be
because the everything didn't exist at
one point so so therefore he's really
because the first state if there's such
a thing as first but there really is in
this case because it's the beginning
we're back to the beginning because the
first state of God is nothing as we
haven't gotten there that's that's
number two it's well the story itself
the story line goes into the actual
creation of starts with light and then
it goes to mineral and then it moves it
like
it's a it's the beginning of the
metaphysical end physical space time
continuum the entire space time
continuum is what it means by in the
beginning and you don't take my word
veges read the next lines the next lines
are going into this whole primordial
soup that got created that ultimately
then there was he distinguished this
from that light from darkness local
university oh I are synonymous to me
right now I don't we don't call the
universe infinite we call God infinite
universe being it's not a question
opinion weird everything's logic in this
class this hour okay we still don't use
term infinite universe because because
it was created by an infinite being
doesn't make it infinite just because
something's made by an infinite being
doesn't make it infinite how could an
infinite being makes a an infinite being
makes a match the entire university is
an individual thing just happens to have
an edge going to science oh you like to
really you like to say there's no edge
to the universe you don't believe in the
expanding universe it may be flawed but
there's still an expanding universe you
don't believe in an expanding universe
house oh really
what is called the Big Bang Theory we
forget the last word you don't like it I
see why you don't like its theories I'm
with you I agree with you on that but I
don't know why maybe it's my upbringing
me I'm brainwashed or something but I i
tend towards discussing Big Bang maybe
it's my audience most time my honeys you
mean all the signs behind it not much
more than the basics I learned in
science classes yeah I don't know like
the greater detail yeah it's scary now
then you would be everything then you'd
be saying right but because I look at
the world from a tour perspective and a
science Big Bang perspective I kind of
looked at both ways but either way
you're in here at the beginning and
therefore the universe it can't be
infinite because it's created
automatically makes it finite because
God is not the universe God made the
universe he's God's the creator of the
universe obviously God's mind would
encompass the universe
and that's a question what I can guide
create something that's infinite it's an
oxy more because second sums created it
means it didn't exist once so it's
automatically not infinite get that
think about the word Creek think of the
word created created implies it didn't
exist before it was great it which means
it can't be infinite holes apart holds
our parts so let's just thing as a whole
is not apart except when your time I God
universe's definitely apart it's just
one thing but it's not oneness it's made
of many parts oneness has no parts yeah
but it's but you break it down to its
parts it's got tons of parts and that's
what buddhists study all the parts of
the metaphysical own yeah now the
universe is one unit called the universe
made of it all of its parts God is is an
absolute one is made of no parts we're
good now we're understanding each other
I think we're good now it's just that
you don't you don't necessarily believe
that the world as you believe in tour
but just believe it's missing okay
listen that there's a lot of Rabbis lots
more mean a lot from you for the last
3326 years who have been teaching Terra
and they all agree that the universe is
not infinite without any dissension like
not even one like little ravage like I
Xavier is evident you know not even one
of those guys nothing zero three
thousand doing it in 2 326 years
whatever but but your eyes Steve I don't
want to be rude but you got to
understand the hood SPO of a guy named
Steve at 29 years old walking any saying
I did a well I don't I think they're
misinterpreting it
you raise it what I'm not I'm out of the
words right now I met that the universe
is not infinite but rather a being made
it and it really does have a beginning
that's what I'm saying and and that's
agreed upon unanimously all the way
through all the sages by the way those
same sages don't believe we exist they
don't believe any of it exists yeah
those same sages all the way back all
the rabbi's all the way back believe
it's all imagine it's really an imagined
natori thing of the in the creator of
the universe which is infinite but it
itself the actual figment of the
imagination this illusion of this world
is finite in fact finite is an illusion
no definitely not not as a mano there's
no way nope no physical
the the physical world doesn't exist but
whatever it is you know that's making
this sound yeah whatever that illusion
that God made this like holographic
illusion yeah which by the way is all
made of vibrations anyway we have we
have lasers that could dance through the
rain drops of this table and come right
out the other side without even touching
the table so whatever made this illusion
which is only made of math this entire
world is only made of vibrational
mathematical equation so that we know
from phil that's not fair we know that
this world's pure vibration and so
whatever made all that vibration those
vibrations make the illusion of a table
and my sound these are else do you think
I'm speaking English design this is not
English these are sound waves you're
doing tremendous math while I speak to
understand what I'm saying all of that
is an illusion but it definitely is
within the you know now now now that's
shooting across the room what it's a
finite illusion within an infinite being
but not an infinite universe because
universe is part of the illusion parts
ultimately ultimately they're there of
the infinite but they themselves are the
illusion the finite illusion we're good
with this now okay so you're like you
know what you're like good with the
kabbalists but yeah but when the
Cobblers start discussing beginnings
that's where you drop off but but they
don't but in the end you do meet up
again Steve because in the end the
kabbalists themselves say this doesn't
exist so then maybe do meet up okay guys
that's time Shalom
you
