[Dialogue] The Grand Design

[LAURELCG at aol.com]

Jack,
 
The Ground of Being that WAS before the big bang, and the Evolutionary  
Impulse (Becoming) that started the big bang, is what we've called  God. (This 
I've gleaned from Andrew Cohen.) I agree it is all intelligent, but  our 
tiny brains cannot begin to understand it. IT is the All, in the phrases,  "All 
that is, is good." and "I am One with All That Is." Science is about  
grappling to understand it. Good scientists are usually in awe of what they're  
discovering. What else would keep someone looking in a microscope all day 
every  day for years, or whatever laborious process is required in their  
discipline? Scientists like Bryan Swimme and men of faith like Thomas Berry  
sometimes collaborate to come up with inspired works, like The  Universe Story. 
This is all just my humble opinion, as is the  belief that the church, the 
cutting edge today, is the evolutionary spirituality  movement. Jean Houston 
is a recognized leader of it and almost invariably ends  her internet 
sessions with "These are the times, we are the people."

As to  the "Grand Design", it is the contention of some that the creative 
process,  that which underlies all, is inherently intelligent and that 
intelligence can  be understood.
