Palestine sub bans you for supporting Palestine! Yes ..just now, I am banned for supporting Palestine and the people, it can only mean that this sub support violent israelis!

I personally hold to Theistic Idealism and Objective Idealism.
Objective Idealism because I believe the universe is ontologically real, but it is dependent on The Ultimate mind to ground it's existence.
Science is saying that the spacetime continuum is emergent from Quantum information and that the spacetime continuum is not fundamental. I believe God is the ultimate mind that grounds that Quantum information.
This mirrors Classical Theology that says that God is Ipsum esse subsistens, self subsisting being itself and that the universe only exists by participation in God's being. In other words, God is existence itself but the universe is not God. There is a creator and creation distinction.
I believe Classical Christian Theology and M-Theory work together too. Here is how
○ God is the ontological ground of existence itself. God is the Pure Act of Existence itself, but God is not the universe. Instead, God as the ultimate reality holds the universe in existence. But God is personal, not impersonal like Brahman in Hinduism. God exists as 3 co-eternal persons.
• I believe that God holds the cosmic loaf of all universes in existence by his eternal will. God holds every string in existence and decides what particle each string will be. God holds each membrane with each universe in existence and determines what laws of physics each universe has.
○ According to Classical Christian Theology, God's omnipresence means that God is wholly present everywhere. All of God's being is literally everywhere. God is not spread out like a thin gas or vague energy. But all of God is literally everywhere. 100% of God is everywhere holding the universe in existence. God exists beyond form in this state.
• According to M-Theory, the Calabi-Yau manifolds are the 6 to 7 higher dimensions compactified everywhere at once into geometric shapes everwhere in space-time. They give the strings freedom to vibrate in their unique patterns to exist as different elementary particles. Since God is the ground of existence itself, I believe that God may be wholly present everywhere through those Calabi-Yau manifolds. The way the Calabi-Yau manifolds are folded also determine what laws of physics a universe has. I believe that God chose this version of the Calabi-Yau manifolds to fine tune our universe' laws of physics. God is not the Calabi-Yau manifolds, but I believe God is likely wholly present everywhere through them as existence itself. This also shows scientifically how God can be transcendent and imminent, closer to me than my innermost being
○ According to the Bible, the Spiritual World and Heaven is right beside us, yet invisible.
• According to M-Theory, similar to strings exist extended objects known as "membranes". On each membrane, the strings that make up each Sub-atomic particle are attached to said membrane. That is why universes on different membranes are invisible from each other. You can imagine membranes like slices of bread in a Cosmic Loaf According to Theoretical Physist Brian Greene.
I believe that Heaven and the Spiritual World exist on paralell Membranes in the cosmic Loaf and that is why they're invisible to us. When Jesus ascended into Heaven physically, I believe he likely went through a wormhole similar to Jacob's ladder from one universe into another.
Thats why God's name is "I AM" and "Yahweh"
Yahweh is the third person of "I Am" meaning "He is"
The name YHWH is rooted in the Hebrew "to be" verb "Hayah" because God is what makes things "be" and exist.
○ I believe that UAPs and Angels traverse the Bulk. According to Brian Greene, author of "The Elegant Universe" you can imagine "The Bulk" like a Cosmic Loaf. Each slice of that loaf is a Membrane and each universe is attached to their own membrane. Meaning, the strings that make up each Sub-atomic particle are attached to their membrane. How each string vibrates determines what Sub-atomic particle they are.
UAPs may be the Chariots of Fire spoken of the Bible rather than space craft. But many we see in the sky likely belong to fallen angels. You cannot tell by looking at them alone. Rather than interdimensional beings vaguely existing in the 5th or higher dimensions, I believe interdimensional beings traverse the Bulk, jumping membrane to membrane.
I believe that if Christianity is true, UAPs may funtion similar to the physical resurected body of Christ. After rising from the dead, Christ could do many of the same things that UAPs are capable of, so I theorize the glorified body and Chariots of Fire may be made of matter empowered by the Spirit.
I believe God created alien life, but do not believe we are God in essense. In Howard Storm's NDE, he asked Jesus if alien life existed and was shown many, that there are many in this and other universes. He also asked about Reincarnation and Jesus said reincarnation isnt true.
According to Classical Christian Theology, God is not a being amoung many being, an anthropomorphic being within the spacetime continuum. Atheists conflate YHWH with the pagan anthropomorphic gods too much.
In Classical Christian Theology, God is Ispum Esse Subsistens, the pure act of being/existence itself. As for where Jesus originates, he is one of the 3 co-eternal relations in God. God is the ground of being itself and exists prior to all universes in the Multiverse.
But don't get confused and ask "But if Heaven is God's house, how is God creating universes while living inside the Heaven?"
No. That is a misunderstanding of my position. King Solomon said that not even Heaven can contain God! So Heaven is God's house similar to how the Temple in Jerusalem was God's house. God is ontologically prior to all houses and universes, including Heaven.
God is the ontological ground of existence itself and doesnt have any literal form, this applies to the whole tri-une God. When God manifests in a form we can relate to, theology defines it as a Theophany or Condescension. So when you see God the Father seated on a Throne in Heaven, you are seeing a theophany of God the Father. You cannot see God's essence. However, Jesus, the 2nd person of the trinity is unique in that through the Hypostatic Union, he has 2 natures. He is 100% God in essense while simultaneously being 100% human. God in the flesh. The Holy Spirit is 100% God in essence too. The Holy Spirit seems to manifest in a wide array of manifestations in scripture. Those are also theophanies.
You can imagine a theophany as a game avatar God manifests through inside spacetime continuums. But Christ's Hypostatic union is permanent though. The Theophanies are actually God manifesting himself though, not only avatars. The avatar thing is an analogy. But back to my point.
And there is no law forbidding existence itself from manifesting humanoid form within the block universe to relate to his creation while still being distinct from his creation? Assuming that consciousness is more fundamental than matter
>"Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation, 16 for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him. 17 He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together."

For me, it's doing good deeds and helping each other, while also achieving your dreams, basically heaven is the ultimate goal.
For me it's the ultimate creator of the universe and the manager of the universe.

I believe both in an equal quantity
I would ask him the truths of the universe
Both combined makes a really good philosophy of meaning of our life, which I love to personally believe.
According to lack of knowledge about theories, i haven't found the theory which i best according to me
