I came to a conclusion not too long ago that has caused me to reevaluate a lot of my older ideas, and I'd like to share it with all of you:

My Metaphysical Beliefs

1. The universe is one substance - energy.
2. Energy is produced from The First Thought (and all thoughts after it).
3. God exists apart from the universe (and is apart of it in some manner of speaking)
4. God is omniscient and omnipresent, as all that exists (in the physical universe) are its thoughts
5. God does not interfere with creation directly, but his thoughts are a form of indirect persuasion

I look forward to any comments and suggestions on my theory

I pulled up a list of questions off of the wikipedia article for Cosmology, and added one of my own. Hopefully this will clarify a few more of my ideas:

Cosmology

What is the origin of the Universe?
The universe is the direct result of the mental processes of God's mind.
Although we experience a single finite universe, in reality there is an infinite number.

What are the ultimate material components of the Universe?
The universe is one substance - thought... in the form of energy and matter.

Is the universe's existence necessary?
The universe's existance is necessary so that finite consciousness may exist.

Does the existence of consciousness have a purpose?
Consciousness exists so that God may experience infinite seperateness.

What is the ultimate reason for the existence of the Universe?
The ultimate reason for the existance of the universe, is living consciousness.

How do we know what we know about the totality of the cosmos?
God makes itself aware to us in the order and complexity of the universe, and the advantageous natural laws that

defy not only probability, but betray the notion that such order is anything but intentional.

Does cosmological reasoning reveal metaphysical truths?
As sentient beings, we are able to contemplate natural laws and understand their origins because we posess reason.

What is the nature of God?
God has an infinitely incorporeal body (khaos), and an infintely corporeal mind (nous).
God is omniscient and omnipresent, as all that exists in the physical universe are its thoughts.
God does not interfere with creation directly, but his thoughts shape and guide the nature of the
laws and principles that govern it.

It's sounds like your metaphysical model shares many similar characteristics to a few other posters here. Welcome to the forum.
