Either they necessitate a deceptive «God», e.g. creating starlight «in transit» which means that for some light the star that supposedly sent said light would never have actually existed, or they would cause
effect that should be evident but are not, e.g. temporarily fast starlight would effectively cook many things, such as life on earth, if the required light (and attendant gamma radiation) were compressed into a significantly shorter
time frame (think
of the radiation

Sheldrake pictures morphogenetic fields as being the context in which forms (
of life or physical reality) which arose in the past exercise their causal influence by a non-energetic «resonance» with subsequent similar systems13 Resonance
of course is a physical analogy for something that is not physical: «A «resonant»
effect of form upon form across space and
time would resemble energetic resonance in its selectivity, but it could not be accounted for in terms
of any
of the known types
of resonance, nor would it involve a transmission
of energy «14 In order to distinguish it
from energetic resonance, Sheldrake calls this process morphic resonance.

If we allow Blake's apocalyptic vision to stand witness to a radical Christian faith, there are at least seven points
from within this perspective at which we can discern the uniqueness
of Christianity: (1) a realization
of the centrality
of the fall and
of the totality
of fallenness throughout the cosmos; (2) the fall in this sense can not be known as a negative or finally illusory reality, for it is a process or movement that is absolutely real while yet being paradoxically identical with the process
of redemption; and this because (3) faith, in its Christian expression, must finally know the cosmos as a kenotic and historical process
of the Godhead's becoming incarnate in the concrete contingency
of time and space; (4) insofar as this kenotic process becomes consummated in death, Christianity must celebrate death as the path to regeneration; (5) so likewise the ultimate salvation that will be
effected by the triumph
of the Kingdom
of God can take place only through a final cosmic reversal; (6) nevertheless, the future Eschaton that is promised by Christianity is not a repetition
of the primordial beginning, but is a new and final paradise in which God will have become all in all; and (7) faith, in this apocalyptic sense, knows that God's Kingdom is already dawning, that it is present in the words and person
of Jesus, and that only Jesus is the «Universal Humanity,» the final coming together
of God and man.
