The truth is so simple, and yet I tremble as I put it into words. On a cosmological scale, the universe is symmetric in time.

God’s realm is our unknowable future; everything that is real to Him remains only possibility to us. Ironically, the reverse is also true: The reality of our past remains unknown to God.

If so, how could any religion ever claim to be compatible with science?
