If events in one dimension affect events in the other dimension then, logically, it should go both ways.

Paul Tillich dealt with this conumdrum by positing that all knowing about an other is through God, making of all relationships a triangle with no contact between the points of the base. The one dimensional aspect of God fits neatly with some aspects of string theory. Each particulate of matter is interdependent only insofar as it is linked with God, otherwise it is isolated. God is the glue that holds it all together. He is also the channel through which particulates know each other. We can not know God since He is the link to our knowing. This describes an absolutely personal God, not an abstract phenomenon.

Wow! It is strange to find someone who has figured this out in the same way that I have. I do think the String theory is the most plausible one for creation/God.

Even so. if God can affect events in this dimension by actions in his dimension, then we, by actions in our dimension (praying, fasting, believing) should be able to affect events in God's dimension (getting his attention).

I'm taking as a given that the persons hypothesis is true.

Col 1:17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
