→‎Miracles: Likewise, the changing of water into wine, the first miracle in the Gospel of John, is almost identical from this perspective: order triumphing over the disorder of an unexpected shorta
Line 16: Line 16:     
The miracle of walking on water is more fully understood under a physical theory based on order/disorder than a traditional view of gravity.  If order is established based on human consciousness or [[faith]], as in [[quantum mechanics]] (see below), and if what is common described as gravity is simply disorder, then consciousness or faith can physically trump the disorder or chaos of falling.  Note that in the biblical description of Peter's walking on water it is disorder of the wind and waves that cause him to fall, not the tugging of a gravitation pull.

The miracle of the multiplication of the loaves, which is the only miracle to appear in every Gospel (and twice in Mark), can be understood as a triumph of order over the disorder of a food shortage.  Likewise, the changing of water into wine, the first miracle in the Gospel of John, is almost identical from this perspective: order triumphing over the disorder of an unexpected shortage.
    
The curing medical ailments is also more easily understood under an order/disorder theory.  Cancer cells are notoriously disordered and chaotic in their growth, for example.  Curing them is a restoration of order.  Similarly, restoring sight to the blind is a tremendous preservation of a highly ordered process.  Those deeds might be understood simply as restoring greater order.
