Some energy is stored in magnetic patterns on some medium. Such as the magnetization of a cassette tape. As Peacocke observes in a note, . . . It's not merely that the mathematical physics of the butterfly model doesn't work out. The notion that God must tiptoe about in his own Creation dissatisfies me.
Scientists claim that the stars roll along their courses without divine assistance.
I'm bothered that you show such little respect for Polkinghorne. Indeed Sir John is to be respected for his accomplishments in modern particle physics and for his faithfulness as an Anglican priest. But loyalty to the Nicene Creed, as exemplified by Polkinghorne's The Faith of a Physicist, can distort one's perspective. The Nicene Creed gives only a few lines to God the Creator, and allots most of its devotion to the person of Jesus. I'm not disparaging devotion to Jesus.
