complexity
The rabbi referred to the laws of physics, biology, etc. as “complex,” in the context of the parable of the watchmaker.
It’s not clear to me how complexity can be attributed to a system of rules when we live within it. Can you point me in the direction of whether you’ve addressed this before?
Thank you very much.
An indication of the complexity of a system of laws is the products it creates. For example, life is a super complex thing, and our natural laws created and are creating life.
Isn't this also an indication of God's complexity?
And if so, then what?
Is that true or not?
For starters, in addition to God's exception to the rule "everything has a cause", he should also be excluded from the rule "complex things have a component".
If it doesn't have a reason, how can it have an ingredient?
If God has no cause and is complex, he has no component. In particular, he is an exception to the rule “Complex things have a component”, only if he is complex. He is not an exception to that rule, if he is simple.
I still don't know if your answer to the original question is yes or no. What is the answer explicitly, without hints, without going around in circles, without ambiguity. Is the fact that God created a complex world an indication that God is complex?
No, this is not an indication. And the discussion is neither important nor relevant, even if it were an indication. A needless discussion.
Why not?
