This is what I wrote in response to his question of "Do you believe in God?"
I believe in God. He is in the sunrise; the re-creation of our daily universe and how it reconfigures from moment to moment, day by day. He is in the Fibonacci sequence, the laws of thermodynamics and the DNA of our ancestors. He is the ultimate authority traversing the planes of existence as easily as I walk down the stairs and back up them again. He is my breath, for I breathe the breath of life, the very existence of all that is, all that has been and all that will ever be. The Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end.
I'm not sure I could ever expound properly on the Fibonacci sequence... however I do understand a little bit about it. And trust me I'm the last person on earth to teach you all math. I can do math, I understand math but to explain it? Not my specialty to say the least. In my own words I understand the Fibonacci sequence to be an ever evolving sequential pattern that is actually based on a mathematical formula.
Thank you Wikipedia~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number As I said I understand it, can't do it~ but I can see it in nature~

Now as for the Laws of Thermodynamics I have a better handle on this one~
First Law of Thermodynamics: Energy can be changed from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed. The total amount of energy and matter in the Universe remains constant, merely changing from one form to another. The First Law of Thermodynamics (Conservation) states that energy is always conserved, it cannot be created or destroyed. In essence, energy can be converted from one form into another.

I like the first law better than the second but as I understand the laws of thermodynamics (and I'm not saying I'm completely 100% correct here) energy never really ceases to exist~ not even in death, which would really explain the native American concept (among others) of the great hoop of life, the wheel of life etc.
Here's a link to the basic philosphical concepts of the planes of existence~

BY SHEPHERD HOODWIN
Just as there are seven colors in the rainbow and seven tones in a musical scale, each with a different vibratory rate, there are seven levels of being on the spectrum of creation. The slowest speed of vibration occurs on the physical plane; the highest, on the buddhaic plane. From the buddhaic plane, energy returns to its source, the Tao.
Physical plane: The densest of the seven planes; where we presently reside.
Astral plane: The second plane of creation. Its medium is concrete emotional energy. It is where our consciousness is focused between lifetimes and when we're finished with the physical plane.
Causal plane: The third plane of creation. Its medium is concrete intellectual energy. It is Michael's plane of existence.
Akashic plane: The central, neutral plane of creation that interconnects the other six. The distilled knowledge of the universe is recorded there. This is the records generated of everything that happens in the universe as it occurs. The appearance is that all matter and energy have a sort of built-in digital recording device, storing its entire history in a photographic code, but the records are actually windows into the past. The records show events exactly as they were experienced, so the information in them begins raw-it is not clarified, understood, and assimilated until a consciousness takes responsibility for doing so. Once it is fully assimilated, it is stored on the akashic plane.
Mental plane: The fifth plane of creation. Its medium is abstract intellectual energy, emphasizing truth. The infinite soul who incarnated as Lao-tzu taught from this plane.
Messianic plane: The sixth plane of creation. Its medium is abstract emotional energy, emphasizing love. The infinite soul who incarnated as Jesus taught from this plane.
Buddhaic plane: The highest plane of creation. Its medium is pure or abstract kinetic energy. We experience the buddhaic plane just before fully refocusing our awareness in the Tao. The infinite soul who incarnated as Buddha taught from this plane.
Now the planes of existence are truly unique, as well they should be. I could go on and on about my philosophies for hours, but I won't, really you should do your own research and not ever take my word for anything. I just like to share what I've learned on my path.
By the way Shamans have a tendency to traverse the planes of existence- but I warn you this is not for everyone. I also caution you that this is not a parlour trick to be put on display at birthday parties. Unless you are called by the universe and have a grounded and conceptual knowledge of what you're trying to do I wouldn't recommend trying to traverse the planes of existence; cosmology is not to be trifled with.
Which leads me to the breath of God, and the Alpha and the Omega.
There actually is such a thing as a reversible Omega, which is not the same as the Alpha. The Omega actually is used to describe the fate of the universe- which I won't do here- some things should really just remain a mystery. But I suggest the article that can be found at the link below~

And finally, last but never least, the breath of God. The universe (and internet) has a million things to say about the breath of God, but aside from all that here's my hypothesis~
We all breath and as such, whether human, animal or clam we breath the breathe of God. (Work with me on the clam thing). The breath of God is in the air around us, in us and through us. Without air, oxygen, we would all cease to exist and actually there would be a vacuum of some sort if I'm not mistaken. Again I wasn't that good in this kind of science either, but I do know enough to believe that when I breathe it is the breath of God flowing through me. Think of it this way, when someone gives CPR they are giving another being the breath of life. What's to say we all can't give the breath of life in one fashion or another? A kind word, a smile, letting someone into the traffic lane- and not cutting them off? Only God can perform miracles through us, we truly can not create life from scratch. When someone or something dies we can not simply breathe on it and restore it to it's former form of life like God can. So if that pointsettia from Christmas resuscitates this summer it truly is a miracle, and not because we did or did not water it from January to June. (Who can bear to throw out a plant?)
I leave this all to you, and I'm not saying I have all the answers- I'm just on the path, same as everyone else....
alpha and omega
