Everything we have ever experienced has been mediated through the wonder of creation. But where does it all come from, and why do we exist at all? God is eternally creating. Each plant, animal, and thought is an expression of God’s being. The second volume of this theology for the HERE and NOW is a meditation on God’s creative process. When was the beginning? Why does God create? How does God create? By asking these questions, we discover a God that is both immanent and transcendent. God is creating here and now. All we have to do is look.

Cyber Wisdom is philosophy of computing. All it takes, says its thesis, is to be satisfied. But how that satisfaction is accomplished is difficult. That is why, when the computer is the mind amplifier, the resonance of the satisfaction builds greatest when only a little time is given. Cyber Wisdom is computer satisfaction to the user without any physical specific machine to run with. Its philosophy is like a medicine upon withdrawal from physical use of computing machines. That medicine will come to be satisfaction, wellness, and resonance, inside the intense emotional need to know the wisdom of the machine. But enough of what Cyber Wisdom “is”. Just, what is it all about? People pay a lot of money for cups which come with water as part of the deal. But to get more water people have to buy a whole other cup to get the water more. Cups get bigger, nicer, better, and they come with water. But they drink it; then they have to buy a whole other cup, to get water again. People are thirsty but they have to buy the cup to get the water inside. But all of a sudden there is a well. No matter how cheap or expensive the cup, water is cheap and plentiful. This is bad for they who make cups. People don’t need to buy the latest and greatest. But it is very good business for they who tend the well - telling the cup-owners you don’t need the bigger and better cup; it is the water you want, anyway. The water itself is free; it has always been free; just now it is available to all. This just means that for most people, the idea of the computer looms larger than knowing the computer itself. That computers became popular not because people were told the wisdom of the machine; they saw themselves in the image of the machine. People’s minds would profit from the mind amplification that computers did. The power of the computer priests kept the love of the amplified mind together in computing systems; witness IBM. And the coordination where each cup carrying more and more water is communicated to more and more people happened; witness Steve Jobs, or Bill Gates, building successful cups. But people still wanted water; there was Google, and the internet. So now people are wanting meaning in their lives; Facebook is the current thought, and Twitter searches for the now. But philosophy of computing watches at what is permanent in the computing game. What is it about mind amplification that is real and fascinating and keeps us permanently at the keyboard of life. People are beginning to realize that loudness is not the only thing to listen to. That water, though frozen, will contain itself; there is that cup. Although cups are necessary, it is not necessary for time to run so quick, for healing, resonance, recovery, from all the interruptions that pass through life. Water is the randomness that the mind needs to have to function and flourish well. Randomness is as essential to the mind as reality is necessary to the body. Don’t be too loud you can’t listen! The water is the blood, and the spirit, that witnesses. Where what the computer is, it is the reflection of what it hears. And each person makes the choice themselves, often from what the person knows, to the path before them. Cyber Wisdom will help a great deal for each person to make the wise choice, on how to deal with computers, in their lives. Complexity is where you find it. It is not too late to change, and it is not too late, to stay the same.
