! ! C-Day Minus X

In the days (and who dare count them?) before The First Day of Creation (Official) God spent some time (though of course, to Him, timeless..) allowing for eventualities: and devised a plan whereby the Unbounded should be presented in Creation as The Absolute Maximum which He planned to be identical to The Absolute Minimum… chuckling to Himself (Who else?) , ‘That’ll keep those atheist scientists occupied… though of course the philosophers and priests may have their work cut out… but then, that could be beneficial…’ All that now remained (I’m told) for God (who's infinitely generous, yet loves the economical) to package this in the most practical form… not – as I’m sure you’ll realise – an easy task, given His boundless nature… so – allowing for the inevitable compromise – stuffed it all into a Revelation suitcase called the cosmos… sighed; anticipated problems; but saw that it was – given the circumstances – good; waited for His image, Man, to call it The Cosmos; and watches with benevolent smile as men explain it all to one another..
