Interview with Gary Renard

TGI: I’m just going to jump in and ask the question I’ve wanted to ask ever since reading Disappearance of the Universe. In thinking about God and Creation, it never made sense that something that is whole, seamless, and infinite, could ever even conceive of a creation that was fragmented and limited. When I read Disappearance it was like, “Finally, somebody said it.” Yet the explanation from Arten and Pursah about how the multi-verse of all creation resulted from an infinitesimally small, timeless bobble in the seamless fabric of the IS somehow didn’t quite convince me either.
Gary : Yeah, you know it’s kind of like the equivalent of you’re sleepy and you’re driving your car late at night. And you start to doze off for just a second and then you wake yourself up like real quick. And so it's just maybe a second - an inconsequential blip on the screen, and everything keeps going. You keep driving along and you get to your destination and everything is fine. That’s kind of like the equivalent to what the Course (A Course in Miracles) calls the tiny “mad” idea. Nowhere does it ever say that Christ actually separated from God. In fact it says just the opposite. It says the full awareness of the atonement is that the separation never occurred.
