Sepher Yetzirah:
1.) 22 Hebrew letters... ("These twenty-two letters, the foundations,")
2.) Arranged on a sphere... ("He arranged as on a sphere,")
3.) ...in 231 permutations of Hebrew letters ("Thus in combining all together in pairs are produced these two hundred and thirty-one")
4.) The permuted states are apparently located within the sphere: ("with two hundred and thirty-one modes of entrance.")
5.) These permutations correspond to "gates of knowledge:" ("Thus in combining all together in pairs are produced these two hundred and thirty-one gates of knowledge.")
6.) Rotations of the sphere activated different states: ("If the sphere be rotated forward, good is implied, if in a retrograde manner evil is intended.")
7.) God used these words to create the universe: (And from Nothingness did He make something, and all forms of speech and every created thing, and from the empty void He made the solid earth, and from the non-existent He brought forth Life.)
Physics:
1.) In hyperspace we would have 22 opposite or orthogonal orientations corresponding: (According to string theory, we are embedded in an 11 dimensional hyperspace -with 2 opposite directions on each axis)
2.) If used for quantum computing, these would be arranged on a 22-level Bloch-sphere.
3.) If treated as states in quantum superposition, these would correspond to 231 permutations. (each superposition of two corresponding to a qubit)
4.) The qubits in a Bloch-sphere are located within the sphere itself, (with the 22 states forming their superpositions encoded on the surface)
5.) These qubits act as quantum logic gates. (ie. "gates of knowledge")
6.) Computations are performed by rotating the Bloch-sphere to one axis or another, (thereby activated one state or another)
7.) The wave-function of the universe used these to program the universe. (the wave-function of the universe produced the universe and is self-collapsing -and thus according to Penrose's Orch-OR, would be a Cosmic Quantum Mind!. (Paola Zizzi's "Big Wow" theory) -the universe in this case would be thought of as a "program" running in a larger encompassing non-local quantum computer "wave-function of the universe")
7 to 7. It's a perfect match!

If you're interested in promoting Christianity, you should actually look into Kabbalah. It's completely compatible with, and even explains Christian theology.
The Three Supernal Sephirot = The Trinity,
Sephirotic planes = Heaven
Hell = The Qlippoth
Da'at = The Knowledge of Good and Evil (think like a computer virus that infects the world and makes the world -and us- evil)
Archangels, Demons, the whole nine yards.
To boot it has some pretty solid tie-ins with quantum physics, which when you bring this in, gives you a pretty solid case for a Christian worldview.edit on 28-5-2012 by Ajax84 because: redid sentence

The passage is open to interpretation.
Honestly, I interpret it to mean that sentience is the image of God. The name meaning "I am" is fairly indicative of this. Socrates is noted for his conclusion upon pondering the legitimacy of existence: "I think, therefor I am." It is the ultimate philosophical challenge - that of existence, itself.

I guess what I'm thinking is that if you want to convince an atheist -who will believe no other way- a good way to convince him is to show him the physics, and then slowly link in the occult stuff. Once he gets the big picture you can then use it to readily explain Christianity.
They insist on everything being science -so why not give them what they want, and send them on the mindtrip of their lives?edit on 28-5-2012 by Ajax84 because: (no reason given)

There are so many different images of mankind, how do we know which one of us actually looks like god ?

I highly doubt genetic coding originated on this planet.

not so fast. why do children suffer and die before they even have a chance to do something about this "debt"? I have a problem with an all loving consciousness that calls in debts at the suffering of innocents. Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people, so where's the justice, love and charity in that? Why doesn't God practice what he preaches? I am convinced there is some sort of collective source consciousness out there but whether or not it is concerned with us in particular as far as "debts" and things, I don't buy it. There is no justice in our world and life is completely meaningless albeit beautiful and very interesting to me.
