I'm sure you're familiar with the concept of the 'True Name of God'. I speak of the idea presented in such movies as 'Warlock' where it is said that if you utter the true name of god, there will be an end to all creation. In fact, it would supposedly be even worse (if that's possible) in that creation would actually be undone.

Well, anyone who understands quantum mechanics also understands that everything exists as a wave. Every last 'particle' in the entire universe is actually a wave; exhibiting such wave-like properties as wave interference when passing through a diffraction grating.

You and I are waves too. And yes, we could also pass through a grating and exhibit an interference pattern. Problem is, given our mass, our waves functions make the grating dimensions unwieldy.

Another property of waves is that each and every one has an opposite. A negative counterpart. If they ever come in contact, they cancel each other out leaving no wave. This is how the fancy new quiet dishwashers work - a computer analyzes the sound pattern being emitted and then generates a negative wave to cancel the sound. You hear nothing.

You may already see where I'm going with this. What if the universe has an 'anti-wave'? What if it were possible to write it's formula down and squirrel it away buried in a salt flat. I'm talking about the 'Grim Grimoire'. Maybe it doesn't contain spells or a 'name' symbol per se. Maybe it contains a bunch of equations.

What if some evil genius scientist or, more likely, some unsuspecting, well-intentioned, curious scientist finds this book and realizes that if they just modified that new Large Hadron Collider in a certain way, they could create this exotic new 'particle'. (I forgot to mention that each wave also has an associated particle. This wave / particle duality is the heart of quantum theory).

On the day he fires up the instrument and runs the experiment he is in a sense verbalizing the formula. Creating the wave / particle found in the equation is no different than saying a word found on a page out loud. So when the experiment reaches it climatic end, the 'True Name of God' is said out loud and all creation is undone.

I think that would make for a pretty good movie (as long as someone thwarts the scientist in the end, just before the experiment is done of course). Something along the lines of John Carpenter's 'Prince of Darkness'. Feel free to write the screenplay if you like… just mention me if you do.

The idea is however, somewhat implausible. More likely, the energy required to create such a particle - it must be massive(!) - would probably require an accelerator the size of the solar system, or maybe even the galaxy (or more).

We're most likely not the only intelligent ones in the universe. In fact it's probable that there are other life forms well advanced of ourselves. What if there is a limit to the amount of knowledge that can be acquired by a single civilization? What if there is no ultimate answer to our questions other than "There is no answer to that question". And to know all there is means to know that this answer is truth. What if this civilization finally decided it had had enough and in some sort of mass murder / suicide craze actually builds the galaxy size accelerator - perhaps flinging black holes around in opposite directions to collide at relativistic speeds. After all, they do know everything and are filled with the deepest possible sorrow.

What if this ultimate civilization exists on another plane and is what we know as Satan?

Like I said, I'd love to read the story if you write it
