I've always loved this Taoist fairy tale from a book I bought years ago.
One day a Taoist master and his disciple were sitting on the bank of a great river. Across the river on the other bank were a great magician and his disciple. The Taoist disciple watched in amusement as the great magician across the river threw balls of fire from his hands, disappeared and then reappeared in a tree and then walked on the river itself. He then observed the magicians helper get into a boat and row towards him across the river. Once to the other side the magician's helper approached the Taoist disciple and said "You have seen the powerful magic my master is capable of. Tell me, what sort of magic does your master do?" The Taoist disciple replied "My master does the greatest magic of all. He eats when he's hungry and sleeps when he's tired."

Somebody said "Let there be light." But for something to be spoken there has to be a physical mouth and an atmosphere (you need some molecules to jiggle to say anything) and a language. If God created the universe out of a complete vacuum, I think it would have to be through a thought process, not actually speaking since, presumably, it was before any language was invented. Also, a language presupposes hearers as well as speakers. Another problematic issue. Who would have been around to understand that utterance.
Things to think about. |

“This planet has — or rather had — a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn’t the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.”
