Assume God created the intricacies of earth in 6 days. "Pushing the limits of its powerful vision, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has uncovered the oldest burned-out stars in our Milky Way Galaxy. These extremely old, dim stars provide a completely independent reading of the universe's age without relying on measurements of the universe's expansion. The ancient white dwarf stars, as seen by Hubble, turn out to be 12 to 13 billion years old." SO . . . if God could create what we see and discover on earth in six days, what has he created in billions of years? NOW . . . we know that two objects can occupy the same "space" if their atomic structure is different. There could be another entire earth of people and objects "co-existing" on this planet right now. Neither world would be aware of the other. THEREFORE . . . what if God has been creating other "worlds", "cities", "natures", etc. in the universe for billions of years. The hubble telescope only "sees" a particular atomic structure which to us is "lights", "galaxies", "stars", etc. What if billions of other worlds exist in another atomic structure? ALSO . . . in Heaven, we will have a body like Christ. He obviously was not constrained by time or space. He could travel, in essence, by "thought". WOW . . . what will we do for an ETERNITY? Imagine travel by thought, but God flips the switch on the atomic structure and we can "see" the BILLIONS of magnificent world's He has created for us. Earth has enough to keep you busy for several hundred years if you were not constrained by time and space and knowledge. Multiply that by BILLIONS. Blows your mind! I remain, SOROS
