OK, so, don't blame me for this topic! Kate and I just happen to have an electrical engineer staying with us tonight, and he got me going on this; it's all his fault!!! LOL
But, think about it: If, suddenly, for some reason, the "concept of God" was immediately obliterated from our minds, we would continue to exist--we would raise our crops, feed our children, warm our houses, etc.
But what if electricity suddenly ceased to exist?
1) Artificial lighting would cease to exist, and therefore virtually every multi-story building in the world would become unusable. Commerce would come to a screaching halt.
2) Computers would stop, and ditto to 1);
3) Electrical heating would cease, and therefore millions upon millions of people would die within days;
4) Natural gas heating would also stop (since the pumps that distribute that gas are typically powered by electricity)...and ditto to 3);
4) Water distribution (powered by electricity) would stop, and we would find ourselves looking for the nearest clean-water creek just to get enough water to drink for the day;
5) Waste processing facilities would stop, and within a month most civilized countries would be over-run with communicable diseases like diptheria and typhoid;
6) Emergency relief agencies would be immobilized: no planes could fly, no trucks could run...and none of the guns of the national guards or police would operate.
I'm sure that others can offer additional examples.
In real terms, electricity is more powerful important than God.
