And about String Theory, which seems to work really well if it is true that we live in 10 or 11 dimensions, while only experiencing 4 of them. I don't believe in God, but I could easily imagine an 'immaterial being' actually being material, but residing in one of the other 6 dimensions. It's weird, but who knows what String Theory will bring us? | |

Thus it causing an effect on the physical world cannot be imagined. One can only imagine a physical cause causing a physical effect. | |
