General divine action refers to God’s universal action in guiding all events, on the other hand, special divine action refers to God’s particular acts in specific moments, whether they are found in personal life or in history. It leads us that God should interrupt or stop the natural law with intervention to conduct special events. Top-down causality can allow the divine action to better interpretation-cannot be compensated for bottom-up causality alone-as far as chance or miraculous events. That’s why not all the effects of God’s action happen at the level of gene or quantum. Not all the properties of living matters are originated in the properties of their components such as atoms or molecules, but the whole is affected by the parts to some extent.
The information-inflow from God is similar to energy-inflow, and it seems to be breaking the natural law as a result. Like this, the divine action that cannot be explained with contemporary science may be appropriate for top-down causality, that is, the viewpoint that can be considered as not breaking the natural law. We can perceive that the intervention is related with the notion of energy. We can also notice that, inversely, non-intervention isn’t related with energy or doesn’t violate the natural law and makes the information-inflow possible without stopping any regularities. Though, all living systems are autonomous. It doesn’t mean that living organisms are isolated or separated from the environment. In other words, it is possible to inflow information without relating or consuming energy. It may be interpreted that top-down causality is able to take place without violating the natural law.
