Again: search for a metaphor

[Rebing@t-online.de (Dr. G?nter Rebing)]

Being a newcomer to the institution of mailing lists I neglected to mention my 
E-Mail address when I wrote my message two days ago. Here it is:

For your convenience I repeat here the text of my message:

Somewhere in his writings EJ settles the old quarrel "Creation or Evolution?" by 
a synthesis in the form of a metaphor: the world is a carpet thrown before us by 
the Creator and while it is unfurling we see more and more of its intricate 
patterns evolving. Precisely because this is a deplorably imprecise rendering of 
the passage in question I would like to know where to find it and thus to mend my 
vague remembrance of the wording.
