I see relativistic space-time.
I can attempt to fathom both. For me it's not difficult to imagine the origin of one is likely intertwined with the other. Our understanding of either when compared to all the hydrogen in the universe would probably fit in a thimble.
Even when you look at someone standing next to you, you don't see them in the present. You can only see them after light has reflected off of them and gone into your eyes. This takes a (very short) amount of time. Over larger distances, things add up. You can't see the sun in the present. You always see what it looked like 7 minutes ago. When you look up at the Orion constellation, and see the red supergiant star Betelgeuse, you're not seeing it in the present. You're seeing what it looked like 641 years ago, because that's how long it takes for it's light to reach us. Betelgeuse is estimated to go supernova and explode sometime between now and the next million years. It could happen at any time. In fact, it could already be dead and gone, but it's explosion hasn't reached us yet.
In other words, every time you look up at the sky at night you're looking into a giant time machine. You are seeing space-time.
I don't know or care about the god in the bible.
But mrnogood doesn't emit light so we can't see him in the sky.
But we should know that he was, is and will always be everywhere.

I've always suspected you spent time in a vacuum but now your 7 minute observation substantiates it.
After a quick calculation I now see you live in a vacuum, albeit closer to the orbit of Venus (~11 million miles away from you) than to Earth's orbit (~15 million miles away from you).
Maybe if you keep smoking the good stuff your optic nerve will one day evolve an extension allowing for the appropriate non-Euclidean transformation to take place so you too can see God.
want you to think that you're going up and down, but actually the building is moving around you. Einstein figured that out and that's why they named him Einstein, because he got shorter on the way down and longer on the way up!
But SERIOUSLY isn't there some kind of idea floated based on information theory that it would take all of the binary information storage content of all the matter in the universe in order to compute the universe? I think that translates into the universe itself is god because only the entire universe can understand and predict itself. But even that posits no conscious intent, and it certainly does not explain how or why the universe exists. And positing a god to explain the existence of the universe is the ultimate tautological evasion. Is this where I'm supposed to type "lol"
Its all faith. The way I see the world, if I didn't believe in something better i'd just as soon walk into a chopper blade.
God will bare witness, to you, the truth in his own time. When he does, you will not be confused as to its truth. Sadly, if you deny the truth, witnessed to you, you are damned to hell. The only unforgiveable sin is to deny the Holy Ghost.
There is still one unanswered facet to this quandry which many will automatically ask. I will wait to see if the question is even asked.
It seems the greater the affect or effect, the closer one is to observing a clear miracle, yet even non-miraculous affects and effects are most likely ever present, just not observable as such.
I think there is some sort of spiritual corollary to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principal buried in there somewhere.
