SPECIAL RELATIVITY AND GOD
SPECIAL RELATIVITY AND GOD
Undoubtedly simplicity, clarity and brevity promote comprehension while adding profundity, whether in penmanship or in physics .
Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared or (E=MC2) --the special theory of relativity by Albert Einstein--is about as simple, as clear, as brief, as any equation ever written, or as any thought ever uttered, and also as profound.
That formulation was perfected by Einstein and others from 1905 to 1946, until it achieved iconic status. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass–energy_equivalence
Ultimately it is a condensation of the two laws of conservation of energy and matter, into one law, its covariant; wherein and whereby each, energy and matter, subsumes, transposes, and swallows up the other, two states in one, innately and interminably.
As such, both being innately and interminably entangled, what a familiar Biblical metaphor from the book First Corinthians says about the conservation of the laws of matter and energy, or of matter as energy is also here appliable: the perishable becomes the imperishable and mortality becomes immortality. http://biblehub.com/1_corinthians/15-54.htm
To God be the Glory!
