God and Man Communications

My research on God, the universe, and life have been centered on the work of Moses, Plato, Jesus Christ, Nicholas of Cusa, Gottfried Leibniz, and Georg Cantor over the last 25 years. But, to understand panentheism and the Western world shift from ancient thinking to our modern ways of thinking, one must study Nicholas of Cusa and his first book, On Learned Ignorance. In this book, one learns that Nicholas became the first modern thinker by 1440. This honor is confirmed if one learns that US scientists did not discuss the complicated subject of symbolism at Columbia and Harvard University until the 1950s.

Today, most people still do not know what is meant by the terms ‘symbolic languages’ and ‘sign languages.’ Signs have precise meanings and are used by all animals to communicate. For instance, the position of the tail of a deer is a sign that communicates danger; dogs use barking signs for different reasons; a red light is a sign that tells humans to stop; people talk to each other with word-signs; and scientists communicate scientific ideas to each other with number-signs. However, precise meanings of symbols are difficult to determine because God must be included in a symbolic language. Nicholas was the first to realize that divine matters are opened to us only through symbols (Book I, Ch. 11.). He is saying that God and man can have no communications without symbols. I believe that the lack of developing symbols is causing people to turn to atheism.

In Part IIc of The First Scientific Proof of God, I discuss the God-man communication problem. There, I identify three ways that God and man communicate. To determine God-man communications, we must develop specific information. This information is constructed with precise meanings of those symbols that define all of the laws of nature and nature’s God. These two sets of laws are expressed by the Declaration of Independence. Thus, when the US Supreme Court denies the Declaration of Independence in the body of US laws, the Court prevents the development of symbols and blocks our communications with God.
