This thesis rejects philosophical abstractions and the reification of Space (making empty Space a Thing). It begins by grounding reality in the absolute, undeniable immediacy of the Self existing God as a physical body in physical space. This establishes what may be called a bedrock ontology in philosophy. The first principle is “ontology must be derived from ontology.” Moving from the isolated physical Self to the relational, social Self, we solve the problem of how a human being acquires abstract knowledge without losing their footing in reality. By defining Space strictly as the infinite 3D arena of coordinates, God is preserved as the sole, ultimate, and primary ontology. Insights include viewing God as the uncaused, self-buoyant Nucleus in Space (satisfying Occam’s Razor). Seeing Creation as logically deriving from this Nucleus (ex-Deo), God’s act of creation is seen as the first ontological sacrifice, a literal giving away of divine mass/energy that provides a stunningly tangible link to the eventual incarnation and sacrifice of Christ. It obeys the conservation of substance. Part 1
