Is this how Christian God become two beings at the same time?

They're not really either. It's just that their behaviour can be described as one or the other under different circumstances.
In fact it seems - pace Dr. Deutsch - that they ARE particles, but that their behaviour is influenced by other particles in a parallel dimension, so that they behave as a probability wave.

Edit: Er, guys: this works for electrons, photons, positrons, golfballs, eggs, people and planets. The wavelength of the wave changes, is all.

Actually, I think what you want to say is 'light', not electron. When an electron jumps from a higher to a lower energy level, electromagnetic radiation ( a form of energy) is 'given off'. And what exactly is light? Huygens and Young say it's a wave; Newton and Einstein say it's particles (called photons).
God says "I am light and I dwell in light unapproachable".
Maybe there is some parallel there.

Isn't that light? And not electrons but photons? And wouldn't it be more accurate to say it 'behaves' like a wave and particle?

You're getting there, praise the Lord! I think that the Word or Spirit of God is His thought energy. An electron or any subatomic particle is not solid but an energy field that occupies space, right? All matter could be the thoughts of God. God in Jesus, God in us all. To focus one's thoughts creates a stronger energy field. Images become miraculous because people worship them? God's thoughts was concentrated on Christ (psi focus). And Christ, though distinctly aware of His own personality was at one in consciousness with God. The Father and I are one. What you're saying is quantum physics? It could be our clue to understanding religion better.

Actually, nothing can be both. All that "illogical" statement tells you is that neither is true. There are both wave & particle theories of light. Both theories serve in many cases, but neither serves in all cases, so we know that both theories are useful, but neither is a true statement of the nature of light.

Electrons are some of the smallest, fastest things in existence.
You can't try to rationalize them by your current knowledge of how large objects (cars, water, people) move and exist.
You need to know A LOT about atoms to be able to understand this.
And no, God does not exist.

Look around you, see everything? Well light is a wave, all we know is a wave. And all we know is through what we see. And we ONLY see 10% of the entire wave/light spectrum.
So if we can only see 10% of what is really out there, imagine what could be inside that other 90%. Plenty of room for G_D thats for sure.
Drive down the road with only 10% of your windows exposed, cover the rest. Tell me how much of the world you see.

An unusual analogy, but it does illustrate how our limited human minds are still unable to comprehend the true nature of the universe, and what lies within.

This problem is that of casual human understanding of Quantum Mechanics, not of the theory itself.

I think you are talking about photons, and the slit / double slit experiment.
That is what quantum physics is all about. Cool, huh?
