#9Ai 💡God, Light, and the Relativity of Time. PhysicsoftheMystics.com
This blog post explores the concept of God's timelessness through the lens of Einstein's theory of Special Relativity. The author connects the absolute speed of light to God's transcendence of time, arguing that as an object approaches the speed of light, time slows down relative to a stationary observer, mirroring God's simultaneous experience of all time. The post uses a thought experiment involving a light beam on a moving train to illustrate time dilation, then applies this relativistic concept to the biblical and Talmudic idea of Kefitzat Haderech ('leaping of the way'), suggesting it can be understood as a manifestation of time and space dilation. Ultimately, the author proposes that the properties of light offer a tangible analogy for understanding God's timeless nature. The text concludes with a reflection on the implications of this connection for prayer and faith. physicsofthemystics@gmail.com
