is light god?

Question

There is no particle in the universe that can travel greater than the speed of light. Light exist but doesn't exist in time. We wiser away in time but light remain the same.?

In the bible god mentions that time has no meaning for him. I find this very intriguing maybe god is simply light is that plausible.

Answer 1

To understand the answer to this question, you first must understand who "God" is, in the areas of our capabilities. From what i understand, the universe, to god is like a super zillionth of a fraction in the tiny tip of his pinky fingers. Yet, he has the power to see and know everything that is happening in the entire universe. Not only so, but he is the ultimate engineerer of galaxies, destroyer and creator of all things (including darkness and light). I can go on and on about praising how big and powerful God is, detailing far beyond what a few of us can only imagine. But you also have to understand that God is more favored towards love, and that he loves each and everyone of us in the same.

Light is not God, (although it is highly signified as his presence and power) light is very much powerfully a part of who God is. Much like the clothes you wear everyday, but to God, light is signified and expressed as the goodness, glory and the majesticality of his resonated title. Without light, God will still be God. Remember, God works in mysterious ways, and sometimes, not in light. Although light does'nt exist in time, it is also existed in/as the presence of almight God. If God was light, we would never be able to exist in it. When Moses steped into the holy grounds before the Lord at Mr. Sinai, he nearly died just in his presence because the light of God was exremely powerful. When he was done with holy company, he dramactically age, nearing his death, but wiser and more powerful with Gods help.

so light is only the light we as humans can exist in, and the light that helps us to know that God is always with us, but not the light that God "is" as we speak. There are different lights including info-red, and lights out there in the universe that man has yet to discover. Then ultimately, there are lights of God that we will never understand as humans. The light of God is powerful enough to destroy the heavens and the earth, and re-creat everything just exactly like it was before he destroyed. (again you have to understand God and how powerful and awesome he is, this is probably just a tiny budge of what he can do).

Answer 2

God created time and space and therefore exists apart from it. People often try to put God into the box He placed us in but that doesn't work. Time is meaningless to God, it's just a tool in His box. God couldn't be physical light because Genesis reads God said "let there be light" so He created light too. However, light is a metaphor for God and is a way we can understand what is really incomprehensible. So you actually are onto something with that idea. Just don't confuse the creation with the Creator.

Answer 3

The bible also says God created light
the bible also says that people should be careful that the light within them is the light of God and not a false light.

God is bigger than our concepts and perception, but God can connect with us on an intimate level through all things....so yes you have found God in light.

Answer 4

You said - "There is no particle in the universe that can travel greater than the speed of light."

That is not proven to be true (meaning scientific truth, not spiritual truth which are not the same perspective of 'truth' as a concept). The Theory of Relativity states (through mathematical implication) that matter cannot accelerate to the speed of light as it would take progressively more energy to keep getting faster.

Its an impossible speed, but theoretically speaking, not an upper limit in any sense.

Tachyons (meaning 'speedy particle') for example, are a mathematically possible form of matter that at zero energy, travel at infinite speed. If you add energy to a tachyon, it slows down and takes an infinite amount of energy to slow to the speed of light - just like normal matter, but in reverse. The speed of light is not so much an upper speed limit, but more of a maximum speed at which the perceptions of normal matter (which includes us) can propagate.

As an analogy, think of an explosion you see in the movies - the sound and the visuals are always matched up perfectly. In reality, there is a delay between when the light hits our eyes and the sound hits out ears, but that seems 'odd' to us and 'unrealistic' if they actually followed reality with the special effects, so for PSYCHOLOGICAL reasons, special effects people sync them up.

Thats not what would actually happen, but its what makes more sense to our minds because we have so much daily experience where we don't notice the delay. We see someone's lips move and hear the voice at the same time. It seems strange when we see real physics expanded in scale to the point where the difference is noticeable, yet we consider violations OF actual physics to be more 'unrealistic' THAN actual physics.

On that note, we will never be able to detect them (tachyons) theoretically, but that doesn't mean they don't actually exist. Sort of like how God can never be proven, but that doesn't mean God doesn't exist. Perhaps God is a zero energy tachyon (if defined in scientific terms) - a single particle that exists in all places at all times, like an infinitely fast particle, by definition, would. Would not a zero energy tachyon be synonymous with the universe?

Irrational to the point of sounding like it must be fantastic fiction? Sure it is, but religion is hardly one to talk about irrational. Sometimes irrational turns out to actually be true. (suggesting both science AND religion may be true even if they aren't always irrational - when that happens, maybe redefining 'rational' in the context in which its used is the best course)

Physiscists say things like "The universe is not just stranger we suppose, its stranger than we CAN suppose." Or "We agree that your theory is indeed strange, but we disagree on if its strange enough to be true." Doesn't religion make similar claims when it claims the universe was created in 7 days? That said, what's the difference when you cut the theoretical physics and/or theological crap and just get to the heart of the matter? They are both fantastically beyond logic, but are looking at the same things from different directions using an incomplete perspective. A non 'all knowing' perspective, be it through physics or through theology is by definition not seeing the entire picture all at once. Certainly, there is going to be an incomplete understanding as a result.

If there is a God, I would speculate that God exists AS the universe itself - they are synonymous, Religion calls this thing God, science calls it the universe. Its the only way I can see to satisfy both science saying the universe is everything and religions saying God is All. Same thing, different perspective of it. Heck, I call my Mom 'Mom'. Her boss calls her by her first name. Different perspective, different terms, same person in this case.

When religion tries to answer the 'why' question, it comes up with God. When science tries to answer the 'how' question, it comes up with the universe. No wonder the disagreement. Two different questions - duh.

Answer 5

Everything that exists emanated from God, including light. Light is part and parcel of God, so light can be defined as one quality of the unlimited qualities of God. God is light, but light is not God. We can say that fire is heat and light, but heat is not fire, nor is light fire. The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts.

Answer 6

This cannot be true as light is overcome by gravity when it approaches a black hole - surely God could not be defeated by a force as weak as gravity or be overcome by darkness ?

If something travels faster than light, then it converts to energy.

Perhaps energy is God ?

Answer 7

Light isn't God. Not even light can escape the blackhole.

Nothing can escape God.

Answer 8

A social anthropological answer would be this: cultures have revered the sun as a god, often as the primary god, for thousands of years. Sun=light=god=sun.....get it...?

Answer 9

Light is light, not god.

Answer 10

its either a light bulb or the sun, which is a star
