Metaphysical Implications of the Computed Universe: Theological and Philosophical Inquiry

This paper explores the metaphysical implications of the Computed Universe (CU) model, which reinterprets physical law as the output of discrete, causally propagated computation. Building on a foundational causal structure governed by voxel-based logic and propagation delay, the CU model offers a new ontological framework where existence, identity, and free will are redefined as logical expressions across a surface-bound substrate. This inquiry extends into theology and philosophy, revealing parallels between CU’s causal topology and classical theological themes such as Logos, recursion, and creation. The paper discusses the philosophical consequences of this model—addressing determinism, dualism, consciousness, and the nature of meaning. By bridging rigorous physics with metaphysical depth, the CU model invites an integrated view of reality that unifies scientific precision with enduring questions of agency, mind, and divine causality.
