Hmmmm interesting....
Would like you to define just two words you use...
a. Spirit...
b. Soul....
As there are many interpretations for these words.
I am interested in your theories and look forward to see how this pans out over the next few days.
I must point out though, that the Word "God" can be seen also as a very loose identity, as everyone has their own idea what God should be according
to their human understanding, which of course is normal.
The Word "God" in Christian terms, is no often understood, but is only thought, to be understood.
In the book of John The word "God" is described as being a Word (God), and having a second component, being Life (of God) or The Light of man (Phos
in Greek): which is "Sun Light" or of any other source as well as from the Sun)
Often when humankind is referring to God, they are actually meaning The Life (Light of man) of God or Consciousness without realising.
You are right that the Universe is God, but I suggest that the Universe is a part of God, in the Creative sense of the word.
But God as I have said, includes two Components: the Word "God" and the "Life" of God which is "The Light (In Greek Phos) of Man"
The "Word" God involves much more, than what I can write in this thread and is much different in its contents, than most understand today.
To have any understanding of the "Word" God, we have to first discover the understanding of those at the time, by the scribe who wrote and has been
influenced by the beliefs and politics, of the scribe at the time of writing. Not to mention the Translation problems from the Hebrew and Greek texts.
This not only concerns just the language but also different cultures, theology, politics and customs between the ages.
The understanding back then, was so much different than today, not in the lesser sense, but perhaps with more knowledge of truth then than today.
The other subject involves The Universe...
Even today very little is really understood as to the true manifestation of the Universe really is...
The molecular or nuclear model, that is accepted and taught today, will be seen differently in say 1,000 years time and the understanding of today,
will be perhaps seen as being a little barbaric then. LOL
But your Idea of the two theories, Creationism and evolutionism both being involved may or may not be true, as it depends in what context you view
these two in their relationship with each other....
But my view is only one of innumerable views, of the situation being presented.
