    High five! I feel exactly the same. Space fucks my mind. The size of some stars and knowing there are other stars even bigger, especially, as well as the concept of space so deep and black that you can't see anything at all.

    As far as I understand it, the three spatial dimensions and time all came into existance at the big bang and started expanding (when people talk about the universe expanding, they don't mean galaxies and shit filling empty space, but actually that the space itself is expanding). So.... it doesn't really make sense to say 'before the big bang', because that's when time literally started.

    If gravity just stopped happening suddenly then objects would just shoot off in whatever direction they were moving.

    Stuff would presumably still stay together because of the molecular bonds in the substances. Everything on earth would be shot off of earth because we're all moving along the surface of the earth. If gravity stopped we would keep moving and shoot tangentially away from the earth. If you're in a house you would probably just hit the wall.

    it's possible you're asking questions that don't have answers. we make the jump that things have to begin and end, because that's how we consider things. if something exists, it exists because it was created, we assume. but it's totally possible that the universe was immemorial and is permanent. it's possible that the way things are is just a fact of existence, and our human workings of logic and fact share a tenuous relationship with whatever is actually there.

    There's an invalid question.

    "What created the universe?" may also be an invalid question. It implies the universe had a creation.

    maybe, but i think you're presenting a question that fits in with the narrative lens people think about things through (something starts at a definite point, continues, and then ends at another definite point) despite that that may or may not transfer from the human experience to the metaphysical experience. then, you condemn science for not answering an unanswerable question and say that god satisfies all of the conditions you argue science has no explanation for. really, science isn't at fault, but the assumption that the conditions of creation, beginning, and end are.

    Not once in recorded history has gravity stopped exerting an influence on the universe. It's effect is measurable and consistent. We also believe we know what causes it.

    God's existence is in doubt because we have no single recorded event which can be undoubtedly attributed to God. If such a God exists, it is unpredictable and we have no idea what it's cause or nature is.

    The two ideas are not comparable.

    i don't believe in gravity because gravity is a question of recognizing fact based on empirical observation, not belief. god is a question of faith. there is no experiment you can preform to prove god is there, but there are plenty of experiments people have preformed to prove gravity is there. drawing logical conclusions about physics is very different from taking leaps of faith, although the two look identical to people who haven't seen the numbers scientists base their conclusions on.

    An idea can begin and end because it's something we made up.

    Matter and energy in the universe behaves differently. As far as I know, nothing ever just pops in and out of existence. IE: Begins and ends.

    oh, i see what you're saying. here's the disconnection. "breath" as a concept is defined culturally, not scientifically. in this case, the act of expanding and contracting your lungs is something recognized by people as something discernible and discreet by arbitrary criteria and is assigned a word (breath). this is something that has a definite beginning and end,but only because its beginning and end meet with the cultural criteria for beginning and end. The matter that was involved in the process still exists, as it will forever, but according to our perceptions and the way we CHOOSE to order the world, something definite has transpired. do you see the distinction?

    We don't even know if the universe is alone. Maybe there are many many many other universes, multiverses in a single infinite omniverse.

    For us our universe already is the notion of infinity, at least for humans. The universe is infinitely amazing

    For some reason this has always made crazy amounts more sense to me than implying a creation. I dunno, maybe my life played out in a certain way that my thought process just didn't consider creation and thought it was like this.

    Like I never fathomed how matter (or the stuff the makes up the universe) could be "created". It just never made sense. I didn't get how any of the stoners or adults or kids I hung out with at various points in my life could think that when they were saying something like "dude, like, where did the universe come from man?"

    I don't think the question is where did it come from, because it's already here. It didn't come from anywhere, it just is. Saying you can "create" matter or the fabric of the universe as a beggining sounds like saying you plucked a 1 out of 0.

    The only thing that blows my mind is that it feels like there could have just as easily been nothing. For some reason (or for no reason at all) there is something.

    I heard Stephen Hawking said something like there was nothing but nothing is unstable so something happened, the big bang. Now that makes no sense to me since I just think of nothing as absolute nothing. If there was a Big Bang, which we seem pretty sure of, I assume either the matter and energy has always been there and is going through cycles of collapses and expansions like some physicists think, or theres some bigger reality multiverse type thing that spawned our universe out of stuff that was already in it. The m-theory guys are so theoretical though it sounds like "wtf are you doing? are you philosophers or fucking MEN OF SCIENCE!"

    tl;dr I dunno lol

    when i read it i had a moment where I was like "wow, i spend all this time wanting immortality and hating the world because i can't be, and in the process i'm ignoring the people i have." it really made me appreciate my friends and family more, and forget a little about wanting to meet god.

    Life doesn't end when our bodies decay. Life continues all around. People and animals and random creatures all over the universe will live and die after you.

    I think this is the most logical and reasonable way to see death with what knowledge we have. See, in the universe there is either an awareness of the universe or no awareness. If there was no thinking creature or consious creature living then the universe might as well not exist in a sense because theres nothing around to percieve it, it would just be a bunch of shit floating around and blowing up and whatnot. So there is perception, and there is nothing.

    Well you can't percieve nothing amirite? Thats the opposite of the idea of nothing in this post. So there is only conciousness and perception.

    So when you die, something else will be born. You might be that something. Not YOU, bob the asshole builder who got raped in an alley and skullfucked to death in the bronx. That Bob is dead as an individual and has no soul or any of that shit. Bob is nothing now, his perception is gone. But again, you can't "be" nothing, so sally the slut is born in hong kong and somebody is now percieving reality as Sally's conciousness. "you" might now be sally. Even though "you" does not mean anybody but sally. It doesn't mean Bob, it doesn't mean a buddhist who thought he would be reincarnated, their all dead. Theres just a new life, because life continues. Hopefully that new life doesn't suck, cause you could be next.

    "I heard Stephen Hawking said something like there was nothing but nothing is unstable so something happened, the big bang."

    i think what he means is that before the big bang there was an infinite amount of time for something to happen so eventually it did.

    He's talking about the speck that is earth on the picture. Not you.

    I love thinking about topics like that. And the universe always amazes me in that context. Solely when I gaze up to the stars in the night I wonder what happens when I die. Will there still be something of me that is able to perceive things in the afterlife (if there is one). Or will my "soul" or way of perception end for that individual I once was. And these thoughts wake the urge in me to be immortal and infinite because I don't want my perception to end simply because I want to be able to perceive and experience things forever.

    I'd understand that as long as he means that "reality" was still there and the big bang just sprang from the reality that was already there. I thought he meant like, NOTHING was there for eternity and then "something" happened. That would make no sense to me because eternity implies something existing for one, and two all that other bullshit I said about whatever I said.

    Indeed, I wasn't remarking upon how it's "insane" to know everything. Hell, the more we know, the better!

    I think the thing that pisses me off most about the whole thing isn't that we don't know much about it, or how it doesn't appear to make sense or any of the rest of it, it's how I know I'm not going to be around when we do start to discover what the Universe is all about.

    As long as religion is around there's always going to be people opposed to exploring the vast regions of the universe and investing in technology that's capable to do so; it's also true that as long as religion is around we'll be spending far too much money and time trying to prove whos God has the bigger penis, giving us less time and money to use for space exploration.

    I feel saddened that I was born into this time period when humans are still so unintelligent, mindlessly following beings that quite obviously don't exist, wasting our time and resources in the process and holding everybody back. But meh, what can we do but wonder what it would be like if religion never existed?

    Obviously. Nothing is not a THING. But the state of nothingness could be defined nonetheless

    The mistake here is to believe that your perception and your body are disconnected. Its the same mistake made by people who believe in a "soul".

    I can't wait for a time when we are able to alter or augment the brain. Think about it like this:

    The brain is a lot like a computer. Our current method of communication between any two brains is to basically output some data in the form of speech and then insert it into another brain. It's kind of like burning some data to a cd and transferring it between computers.

    But imagine networking two minds together. The thoughts and processes of one mind could be accessed by the other and vice versa. Left long enough with two minds completely connected, the individuality of each separate mind would blur and the two people could function as a single mind.

    There probably will never be an answer because it doesn't seem like theres is any why or how. Theres literally just a big fucking mess of stuff just because thats the way shit is, and all science can do is say how that stuff interacts etc. Especially physics anyways. Biology may answer certain "why"s and "how"s, but as for the bigger picture of physics, there is no why or how. Thats the problem with alot of physics like string theory and what not, it seems like they're looking for a wall instead of just describing things. Like saying "the big bang happened because theres a multiverse and the multiverse happened because theres big membranes making universes by colliding".

    Wtf? And you pulled all this shit out of a bunch of math? You m-theory guys gotta chill the fuck out and do some experiments, I thought physicists were the down to earth smart ones, not the potheads thinking "woah man, what if we're in a jar in an alien pantry"

    Aye, true. What defines humanity is our perception.

    I believe science and technology are the future of mankind. Imagine a human mind operating a cyber body. First step of immortality. It's not necessarily homo sapiens. But it's humanity and it's mankind's tiny unremarkable legacy on the universe.
