Approximately Infinite Univers

[Cloud_99]

OK unless any of us are "God" if he exists which I seriously doubt. None of us no matter how long we argue for can never know for certain. g33ky_g1rl I used prove in the loosest terms possible. I cannot prove for absolute deffinate that anything I say is a definate. In fact nothing anyone ever says can ever be proved beyond absolute doubt. Everything disscused here is all theory.

Some theories will always be less plausible than others thats just the way. The Big Bang theory has scientific ground, whereas if I said I created the Universe using a block of chese and a wet flannel, I would have no scientific ground for this theory thusly making it less plausible.

sorry about my like of punctuation but I'm typing as I think sorry.

Everything is theory. As I have said far too many times already nothing can be proved beyond absolute doubt.

As far as the Central point theory is concerned, where did this central point come from originally? How can we prove it's existence? Why is it there? These are the questions we cannot ever have a hope of answering for certain. Over time more and more theories will arise but the truth can never be uncovered for certain unless by fluke, and then how would we know it was the truth? Answer, we wouldn't, so even if we did come across the truth it would just be another theory.

Crikey! I'm sorry...I was just making the point of these things. I do read what people say and although you don't seem to like to agree, I understand it too. I do use punctuation, though you may choose to ignore it. Maybe you need to read what others say too. The theories are all that we have to try and figure out what we do know about the Universe. We know the more popular theories of the Universe and thus, we don't need them to be explained to us. The obvious statement really is that if expanding, the Universe has a central point. My point was that what if it isn't expanding??

[Tulmane]

It's compressing. And thus it has done for as long as we can imagine. Any origin is something completely inconceivable beyond the context that humanity is given. Hell, origin itself is nothing but another man-made concept. Mayhap there was no origin. Is it really so hard to imagine that, if your infinite universe is easy to imagine? Either way, I'ma shut up, this is running in circles.

[g33ky_g1rl]

That's actually a good point...origin is a man-made thing. Are man-made concepts really all that bad of a thing though?

[Cloud_99]

But why does the Universe have to Expand or Contract? again another theory, again another guess at what may be happening. We don't know for certain it's doing either it could be doing a dance for all we know.

Theory itself is a man-made concept. Everything we know is a man-made concept. Maybe the Universe has no purpouse maybe it's just here because it is. The fact we exist? An accident. A really fortunate fluke. But who knows who can tell. No one. because no one knows for certain, and no one ever will.

Are man made concepts such a bad thing? No because without them we would be nothing. We would have nothing we would do nothing, so no they're an awesome thing.

kinda muggy to think that we'll never actually know the real answers to why the Universe is here, and how it got here. Or if we ever do finally figure it out, we'll probably be dead >_>

[Cloud_99]

I know it sucks, but thats the way it is. Due to the fact we can never know things for certain we can never know this either...sorry.

Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the drug store, but that's just peanuts to space.

...Even if we did know, would it really change thigns all that much?

This is one of my favourite topics of discussion, being a science-minded individual, but I've nothing that I feel like contributing at this point.

I must, however, do my sworn duty as a moderator:

Cloud_99 and g33ky_girl, please stop double-posting - that is, posting twice in a row. If you make a post then realise you want to add more, please use the 'edit/delete' button that's found underneath your posts.
That is all.

Or if we ever do finally figure it out, we'll probably be dead >_> [/q]Good point... but the fact that we, personally, will never know the answers isn't a good reason to stop looking, in my opinion. Today's scientists are discovering fragments of theory and information which are gradually expanding our overall understanding... in time, these elements of knowledge will continue to grow, eventually leading to clearer answers. If we simply give up because we'll never know in our lifetimes, then we'll be ensuring that future generations are doomed to ignorance also. Better to do what we can, so that our descendants can have something to build upon, I think. After all, the ancient Greeks probably figured they'd never find all the answers, yet they invented the processes of discovery that we call science; they made the first tentative, faltering steps on the road to knowledge.

Understanding the universe is perhaps the ultimate goal in the pursuit of knowledge. Any progress we can make, how ever infinitessimal, has an inherent value.

Personally, I think it's comparable to the song that never ends. Once you think it's done, it starts all over again. :upsidedow

[Kilika]

heeheehee, well for a start got proof of God? If as he seems to say that man-made idols are bad, well he's contradicting himself as he himself is a man-made idol, he makes others do his work for him and thus they just create these commandments, which man wrote, and a bible which man wrote and all these things which man have done, thus man allow this false idol to exist, so he himself in the contradicting is no more perfect and it really is just a waste of time and effort.

Sorry guys, I didn't mean to say that as if everyone believed it...it's just what I beleive. Please don't put me down or try to challenge my faith or anything...sorry i forgot to put that in my post. But yeah it's what i believe in so....yeah...sorry again. but yeah....time seems like its a large mystery itself....

[Az Lionheart]

personnaly i think that after a certain amount of galaxies the universe does end and there is just white............nothing but white.................

[Ki Ki]

I think it's really cool how big the universe is. I mean imagine ... there might even be someone who looks EXACTLY like you ON ANOTHER PLANET. How weird...

It's funny how we all think we know the answers to so many things ... when we really don't.
