The Beginning
The Hug Prophecy began with a scientist — someone who wrestled with religion and the search for meaning. For years, he struggled to reconcile the scientific truths he studied with the mythology he had grown up believing. The two seemed irreconcilable. Until, one day… they weren’t.
It took a degree in molecular biology, a doctorate in neuroscience, and a deep dive into quantum mechanics during long nights of personal study. Eventually, something clicked.
That story — the full story — may be told in time. But the short version is this:
It no longer matters whether there is a God or not.
What matters is that we are here — together — now.
And we already have the tools to create heaven on earth.
A lot of these posts will focus on the God of Abraham. That’s for a few reasons:
My own spiritual journey revolved around reconciling with this God.
Most of the world identifies with an Abrahamic faith — Judaism, Christianity, or Islam.
And perhaps most tragically, it’s often these very religions that resist the idea that humans could build heaven together, here, in this life.
If you’re not religious, I’m not asking you to become so.
If you are religious, I’m not asking you to renounce your faith.
I’m asking you to consider this:
Continue worshiping God in the way you know, but don’t be afraid of the possibility that heaven might begin before death — and without fear.
The Hug Prophecy isn’t here to convince, control, or convert.
It’s an open invitation to collaborate — to build something beautiful, together.
In my own posts, I’m going to refrain from using the word “God”. I believe that term is restrictive. “God” is something that exists in specific storylines. Many people today have learned to fear this “God”. This “God” is someone who will punish the wicked. Someone who is vindictive and controls everything, yet decides some people deserve to spend an eternity suffering. I do not believe in this God.
I believe in an infinite potential, a creative force so all knowing, so powerful, and so loving, that it can’t be the same God that many people have grown to fear. I believe in a God that is everything. It is you, it is me. And not in the way that “I am God”, as if I am God. In a way that says “God is everything, so I must be a piece of that”.
Instead of using the word “God”, I am going to use the word Universe. Atheists and religious both believe in the Universe, and agree on its meaning. It is “everything”.
