As always, I replied dunno. He said:<\/p>\n<p>God is a &#8220;set of attributes&#8221;. I was like that&#8217;s it? o.O<\/p>\n<p>Seriously, what is God? Is it just a concept after-all?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hypothesis: God is Energy<\/strong><br \/>\nThis is a concept that has become quite popular. Let&#8217;s put this theory to test.<\/p>\n<p>The famous law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only change form.<\/p>\n<p>Traditional Muslim belief is that God is formless and omnipresent. Energy is formless and omnipresent.<\/p>\n<p>Does an idle stone also posses energy? Yep. That&#8217;s what \u201ctemperature\u201d is all about. Even at 0 Kelvin (-273 C), electrons of the rock&#8217;s atom are still spinning. This means they possess Kinetic Energy.<\/p>\n<p>What if we isolate the electrons and protons\/neutrons? We all know the famous theory which Einstein formulated . Mass and energy are therefore commutable. Everything around you can be converted into energy and vice versa.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Origin of Universe<\/strong><br \/>\nWhat was there before the Big-Bang? Some say the energy was &#8220;created&#8221; by an external entity (God) while others say it from a previous Big-Crunch. But from where did the previous universe get the energy? The law of conservation of energy itself says it cannot be &#8220;created&#8221;. God is also known to not having created and being here since even before time started.<\/p>\n<p>So far, Energy = God seems to be a consistent theory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weaknesses of this theory.<\/strong><br \/>\nGod is omniscient to the extent that even a leaf falls and he knows it. Is energy too? Let&#8217;s consider gravitational potential energy. It is defined with the following formula:<br \/>\nGM\/r.<\/p>\n<p>For 2 point masses in space, even if their distance r tends to infinity, they will always be in the gravitational field of each other. If the distance changes, both parties experience a change in attraction.<\/p>\n<p>If the relative position changed so as the distance r remains constant such as an object in orbit, both parties would be able know the direction of the pull. Forces are vector quantities anyways.<\/p>\n<p>But in real life, wonder if falling of a leaf can be detected far away in space with a gravity detector with &#8216;infinite&#8217; precision. And also, is there a propagation delay for electromagnetic forces if an object comes closer? Don&#8217;t think my college physics knowledge can confirm this. From what i understood from a quick search in WikiPedia is that the speed of gravity is same as speed of light according to theory of relativity. <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Speed_of_gravity\">ref<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Intelligence<\/strong><br \/>\nI don&#8217;t think i can analyze this part. Energy as we know it doesn&#8217;t inhibit &#8220;intelligent&#8221; behaviors. Here is where maybe a soul theory might come handy. Maybe the soul is special type of energy&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once my uncle asked me what is God? As always, I replied dunno.
