Growing up, I always had a cosmic, outside-in,
  everywhere-at-once God view. Not so much the Universe-is-God or
  God-is-Universe but sort of a
  connected-but-not-touching-directly, influencing everything
  continually and making everything good, except for people who
  could make mind-shadows and block God. I always had a bit of a
  sci-fi mind, even growing up :)
