Biggest Bang: Post Modern Torat-Moshe Creation Model |
Is ‘creation’ beginning(Time) starting-moment Determinate? Modern Cosmology (specifically: ‘The Big Bang’ -plus- quasi-instantly subsequent Events) asserts an unobservable Extrapolation (Model), based upon (most) everything we have come to understand from: Precise Measurements, Controlled Experiments, and many successfully-derived Predictive Formulas. Thus, some FIRST obvious multi-conundrums arising from Torat-Moshe [‘Genesis’] include: the Model, the time scale, and our post-modern Cognitive Dissonance when reading/deciphering this Late Bronze Age language-transcription ‘style’.
וַיֹּ֥אמֶר אֱלֹהִ֖ים – “VaYomer EloHeem” typically translated “and G-D said” -except- that does not exactly portray what it is -nor- how it functions In Context.
VaYomer (וַיֹּ֥אמֶר) is how one’s mind articulates (a cognitive-perspective language); while VaYidaber (וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר) is what one’s Intestines (‘Kishkes’) -or- Womb is ‘telling you’ (a more visceral -or- innate infrastructural-perspective language). Anyway, consider an EloHeem word (אֱלֹהִ֖ים) to indicate (to the reader) ‘Middat haDin’: a ‘measurable’ aspect of LAW (predictive causality: consequences) → THEN, in the ‘The Laws of Nature’ cosmology-context, typical Physics professors/lecturers say “The Laws of Nature tell us …” which (of course) does Not mean: these Laws have a mouth.
*NOW* For each VaYomer EloHeem occurrence – one presumes the system’s state – described before this expression – complies with entropy/thermodynamics (operating: from order to relative disorder) as in all observations of The Laws of Nature in Our surroundings -and- likewise the same entropy/thermodynamics LAWS for the system’s state – subsequent to this expression.
*HOWEVER* clearly & obviously the entire system’s state after each Vayomer EloHeem has ‘Higher Order’ than the state before – INDICATING whatever is happening ‘during’ “Vayomer EloHeem” is Not according to our normal understanding of entropy/thermodynamics Nor of TIME → which then implies (the concept) EloHeem is ‘Above’ Nature (as appreciated TODAY – in Our Ordinary ‘Thermodynamics Time-Forward’ world) _AND THIS THEN IMPLIES_ when trying to Extrapolate (model) Our Measurements (of Nature) backwards – to calculate the Age of the Universe: WE can ‘only’ extrapolate back-in-Time to the most recent Vayomer Eloheem; and thus, an actual age of the universe is Not calculatable: meaning NOT Knowable!
Q: Is ‘creation’ beginning(Time) starting-moment Determinate?
A: According to Torat-Moshe (cosmology model) – how long ago anything-everything ALL began is NOT Determinate.
While perhaps already described by other(s), I feel obliged to recall where this idea came from – not having read or heard it anywhere. A ‘joke’ eventually inspired this ‘Genesis’ idea/model. Many years ago, Professor Arnold Siegert A”H (who claimed to be the last Jewish student of Werner Heisenberg – before ‘The War’ – WWII) told us one of Heisenberg’s jokes:
“(A) There are some systems which go from order to disorder → example: entropy/Thermodynamics. -and- (B) There are some systems which go from disorder to order → examples: Cosmology -and- Evolution. -therefore- (C) We need some ‘meta-logic’ to tell us where to use which system: A -or- B.”
This ‘joke’ bothered me for umpteen years, until i was looking at B’RAy-Shis (בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית) – and realized: we see many examples of Thermodynamics happening in Real Time -but- we only see examples of Cosmology (evidence of the Universe’s origin/dynamics) and Evolution (irreversible Species divergence distinction) having happened in some Distant Past (never happening in the instant-present) -and- this gave rise to my appreciation of Vayomer........
