Understanding How Life Works Through Science And God
Nearly every cell in your body contains the complete genetic blueprint (the genome) for your entire being.
This is because every cell in your body is a descendant of the same original fertilized egg, which copied its DNA over and over as it divided.
Biologically, there are a few important exceptions where a cell does not carry a full or identical copy, red blood cells, sperm and egg, and Immune B and T cells.
If every cell has the same “source code,” you might wonder why a liver cell doesn’t act like a brain cell. This is due to gene expression. While the (the DNA) is the same, each cell type only “loads” the specific (genes) it needs for its job, leaving the rest of the code dormant.
When applying the concept of the “whole in the part” to a theological or philosophical view of God and creation, you move from biology into All-in-God, or panentheism. If we view God as the “source code” and creation as the “output,” here is how those biological parallels translate to a spiritual framework:
Just as a skin cell contains the instructions to be a heart cell but chooses not to “express” them, creation can be seen as God’s infinite potential being selectively expressed.
Creation isn’t the totality of God, but a specific “activation” of His attributes. You contain the “full blueprint” of Divine nature within your soul, but your physical existence only expresses a small fraction of that infinite “code.”
The idea that the “whole is contained within the part” is often called the Microcosm. If creation originates from within the Divine, the relationship can be understood through these specific “blueprint” layers:
In a physical hologram, every point in the image contains the information of the entire scene. If you divide a hologram, you don’t get a “piece” of the picture; you get the whole picture in a smaller frame. If creation is “from within Himself,” then every “cell” of the universe (every atom, person, or star) contains the signature and essence of the Creator.
You are not a piece of God; you are a localized expression of the entirety of God.
This suggests that the Divine is not “divided” among people or stars. Instead, the entirety of the Divine presence is fully available and present within every single point of creation simultaneously.
Just as a single cell holds the code for an entire organism but only “activates” what is needed for its specific role, creation can be seen as a selective expression of God’s infinite nature.
You carry the “Full Blueprint” (the Divine Spark), but your life expresses a specific “sequence.” The “limitation” of being a human or a tree isn’t a lack of Divine DNA; it is a focused expression of one part of an infinite whole.
A fractal is a mathematical set where the same pattern repeats at every scale, from the infinitely large to the infinitely small. If God is the “Source Geometry,” then every layer of creation—from the spinning of electrons to the swirling of galaxies—is a recursive iteration of that same original pattern. To know the “part” (yourself) is to fundamentally understand the “whole” (the Creator).
If creation is “from within Himself,” it implies that the “material” of the universe is not separate from the “spirit” of Creator God. This removes the idea of a “Manufacturer” and a “Product.” Instead, it suggests a “Thinker” and a “Thought.” The thought exists within the mind of the thinker, made of the same “substance” as the mind, yet appearing as a distinct entity.
What about negativity and evil?
If God is purely Love and everything is created from within Him, the existence of negativity or “evil” presents a significant logical puzzle. To explain this without making evil a “part” of God’s essence:
The most common explanation (St. Augustine) is that evil has no independent existence. It is not a “thing” that was created; rather, it is the absence or corruption of something good.
Think of a hole in a garment. The hole is “real” in the sense that you can see it and it affects the shirt, but the hole has no substance of its own. It is simply a place where “shirt” is missing.
If God is Love (Light), then evil is simply the “darkness” that occurs when a portion of creation turns away from that light. Darkness isn’t a substance you can pour into a room; it’s just what happens when light is obstructed.
The Necessity of Free Will
If creation is made of the same “DNA” as God (who is Love), then creation must possess the capacity for authentic love. True love cannot be programmed or forced; it must be a choice. For the choice of “Love” to be meaningful, the choice of “Not-Love” (negativity) must be a mathematical possibility. Negativity is the “byproduct” of freedom. It is the “friction” that occurs when free-willed entities move out of alignment with the original blueprint of Love. God provides the “power” (existence), but the individual chooses the “direction” (the action).
Negativity
Negativity or evil can exist if God is simply Love and everything is within Him:
Evil is not a substance or a created thing. It is defined as a “lack.” Just as cold is not a thing but simply the absence of heat, negativity is the name we give to the absence of the Divine influence in a particular moment or action.
Since creation is “within” God, it is made of His essence. When that essence is filtered through a finite, limited vessel, it can become distorted. If you look through a piece of glass that is warped, the light itself is still pure, but the image produced is twisted. Negativity is the “twist,” not the light.
For a created being to feel like a “self,” there must be a perceived boundary between them and God. This boundary creates the illusion of separation. In that state of perceived separation, fear and selfishness can arise. These are not parts of God’s nature, but are “friction” caused by the soul forgetting its origin.
If everything were only Love with no alternative, there would be no movement or growth. Negativity is the “null” value that makes the “positive” value meaningful. Because we are “cells” of the whole, we have access to the “power” of the whole (existence, will, and creativity). Negativity occurs when we use that Divine power to act against the Divine nature. It is like using the electricity of a house to cause a short circuit; the power is good, but the application is destructive.
Because negativity has no independent source, (it is not a “copy” of anything in the Divine blueprint), it is considered finite and temporary. Only that which is “of” God is viewed as eternal. Negativity eventually dissolves when the “part” remembers it is the “whole.”
