God as the Space Between Atoms

 Tom Mahon

Instead of picturing God as a medieval monarch on a marble throne, imagine God as the living awareness in the space between the atoms, 'empty' space that makes up about 99.99% of the universe. Thinking of God that way gets us past some of the great theological divides of the past. Is God immanent or transcendent, internal or external, composed or compassionate? Like the question of whether the atom is wave or particle, the answer is: Yes.
