Goat: What do you mean by creation?
William: The Physical Universe aka "Reality" aka "what we exist in".
Is it a "Creation" - implying the mindfulness of a "creator". or is it a mindless accident from out of nowhere - implying magic.
Transponder: It doesn't imply magic, it implies natural physical processes.
William: "Natural Processes" is the effect. It is implying that the cause of Natural Processes is "Magical" because "the cause came from out of nowhere/nothing", which is the very definition of "Magic".
Goat: Why can't the conditions that the universe arose from be eternal? Why do you say that the universe came from nothing?
Transponder: This is an old argument and an endless one. Uncreated matter is rejected. It has to originate somewhere. This is a problem but there is a half solution that i have done several times before so I won't tire everyone out with it.
The Creationists (Young or Old earth) postulate an uncreated eternal Cosmic Mind as the explanation. This Mind of course itself having no origin and was not created. On pure logic that would be harder to explain than the most basic of matter (energy holding position) existing without needing to be created.
And of course, while 'Biblegod' is not the topic, it remains that even if a Cosmic Mind could be validated, or even made a logically sound claim, it wouldn't tell us which god it was.
William: Why don't you answer the question Goat asked, instead of trying to deflect and distract?

William: Familiar. What else is there to compare with? The "Roller Coaster Ride" is what is known. Other concepts derive from the lack of meaning or purpose to The Ride. One can simply shrug and tell oneself "it doesn't really matter" and claim to have 'The Answer'.
One can also separate through using concepts of good and evil. - "This aspect of The Ride is 'good' but this aspect of it is 'evil'.
This in turn brings about connotations re "The Devil" and "God" and 'The God' you want to know, is not the 'Devil you know'.
This complicates the human dilemma re The Ride, as it doesn't really answer the questions.

How does God and the Devil help answer that question?

GM: ObjectivesThe people behind the greatest leaps in physics - Einstein, Newton, Heisenberg, all had the uncanny ability to see the fundamentals - see the deepest, underlying facts about the world, and from simple statements about reality they built up their incredible theories. Well what if we all had a recipe book for doing exactly this. Well, one might be just around the corner and it’s called Constructor Theory.

GM: Astigmatism [a defect in the eye or in a lens caused by a deviation from spherical curvature, which results in distorted images, as light rays are prevented from meeting at a common focus.]William: If one researches OOBEs and the like, one will find that practically everyone who ever experiences such, identify as being 'spirit' - a biblically supported idea, as you have pointed out - something biblical Jesus spoke of as a truth.
Those Christians who do not believe such a thing, often critique OOBEs and the like as 'demonic deception' a type of religious equivalent as the woo-slinging "delusional" which non-theists love to use to 'explain' why such experience doesn't fit with their own particular beliefs about what they self identify as being.
Being 'born of the spirit' is really about coming to the realization of what one truly is rather than remaining in ignorance of that.
