Why do the gods need protection?

Events exist, to say that one event follows another denotes causation and highlights the determinism inherent in the mechanistic cosmos. The cosmos as mechanism begs the question of utility. The cosmos as a clockwork orange is despairingly unsatisfying.

Time is a construct that allows comparisons. One event follows another but for each ego common events or shared experiences only coincide against the measuring construct. There is no coincidence of experience in the personal event chain. The idea that two persons ever experience the same thing is false since experience is defined by the observer.

If one could grasp the gestalt of all of time and space, his understanding would still be limited because time and space have boundaries. The perfect observer sees all events and places simultaneously from the outside. He sees the miniscule and the whole with perfect resolution and perspective.

Ideals come from attributes. The partial comes from the whole. Reflection has a source. I exist, reflective, partial, idealistic, perceiving, limited, part of the universal machine. I am the embodiment of chaos, a random variable, indeterminate until observed. You who observe, determined, fixed, orderly, who created the universe, unlimited, all knowing, perfect, complete, the source. You alone stand outside time and space and know the end from the beginning.
