Big Brain Theory: Have Cosmologists Lost Theirs?

It could be the weirdest and most embarrassing prediction in the history of cosmology, if not science.

If true, it would mean that you yourself reading this article are more likely to be some momentary fluctuation in a field of matter and energy out in space than a person with a real past born through billions of years of evolution in an orderly star-spangled cosmos. Your memories and the world you think you see around you are illusions.

This bizarre picture is the outcome of a recent series of calculations that take some of the bedrock theories and discoveries of modern cosmology to the limit. Nobody in the field believes that this is the way things really work, however. And so in the last couple of years there has been a growing stream of debate and dueling papers, replete with references to such esoteric subjects as reincarnation, multiple universes and even the death of spacetime, as cosmologists try to square the predictions of their cherished theories with their convictions that we and the universe are real. The basic problem is that across the eons of time, the standard theories suggest, the universe can recur over and over again in an endless cycle of big bangs, but it’s hard for nature to make a whole universe. It’s much easier to make fragments of one, like planets, yourself maybe in a spacesuit or even — in the most absurd and troubling example — a naked brain floating in space. Nature tends to do what is easiest, from the standpoint of energy and probability. And so these fragments — in particular the brains — would appear far more frequently than real full-fledged universes, or than us. Or they might be us.

Alan Guth, a cosmologist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who agrees this overabundance is absurd, pointed out that some calculations result in an infinite number of free-floating brains for every normal brain, making it “infinitely unlikely for us to be normal brains.” Welcome to what physicists call the Boltzmann brain problem, named after the 19th-century Austrian physicist Ludwig Boltzmann, who suggested the mechanism by which such fluctuations could happen in a gas or in the universe. Cosmologists also refer to them as “freaky observers,” in contrast to regular or “ordered” observers of the cosmos like ourselves. Cosmologists are desperate to eliminate these freaks from their theories, but so far they can’t even agree on how or even on whether they are making any progress.

If you are inclined to skepticism this debate might seem like further evidence that cosmologists, who gave us dark matter, dark energy and speak with apparent aplomb about gazillions of parallel universes, have finally lost their minds. But the cosmologists say the brain problem serves as a valuable reality check as they contemplate the far, far future and zillions of bubble universes popping off from one another in an ever-increasing rush through eternity. What, for example is a “typical” observer in such a setup? If some atoms in another universe stick together briefly to look, talk and think exactly like you, is it really you?

the rest at the NY times:

"Chanelling" is always suspect. I don't believe The Galactic Federation is coming or Christ Michael is heading up the Fleat. I even distrust Cayce as he flunked out of my group.

But other planes do exist!

The Astral or Yesod (The Foundation) is easy enough to explore. You can learn things their but not in words, concepts. You can also mold things their...

OP Your beautiful avatar is the same as a loved aquantance from another forum, might you be Her?

I'll try to be in voice chat later.

BULLSHIT!!!
Like communicating with my sphincter!!

Once I started a new job and they were missing a file and had been for quite awhile. It had a number on it and I was looking for that number. I dreamed of where it was and I was correct.

And that number was 1 or 1? OMG, imagine the odds of that!!

my butt just farted...Is it speaking to me?

yep

Don't ask stupid questions, it said your name didn't it ?

It's trying to get you to a sit down.

Did In say sit? I meant shit.

I think it's your soul leaking out, a little bit at a time.

Maybe you need a plug.

Try a carrot.

Absolut Feces, 200 proof.

First of all there are no other realms.
Only things that most of you can not precieve or observe.

Sorry Hill, that was your dad's pickup line when he found your mom in the bushes at Balboa Park!!

-"Is real communication taking place? Heh! All is Lost! All Leads To Doom! How's that for communication?"

11:11

Hold on. My fillings are picking up alien transmissions!

No, you are sucking on a vibrator and it just sounds cool in your own head.

-"WHO YOU THINK YOU ARE? LUCILLE BALL?"

-like the FEMA Camp show!

Keep a pen next to your toilet paper. Easier to write notes to yer butt.

It was one in over 200000.

Channeling, remote viewing, ouija board, seances, all have demonic sources. This is why their info is not accurate, the sources are liars. Try talking to God if you want truth from the other side.

Hell, I'd be happy to communicate with Washington DC. Sometimes I think it would be easier to communicate with other realms. (and no critique of the efforts of this thread, just a physical world lament).

i'm actually pleased to see this bullcrap theory turned a thread into a teenage mutant porn commercial. Bravo, the subject deserves it. :D

If that were the case, I wouldn't have mentioned it at all.

It was microfiche files, smartass. They are very very thin. There are about 10,000 per box, 10 boxes on a row, 10 rows in a power file.

In the dream, I knew it was in the deadfile room. So, the next morning I went there. I found the box where it should be numerically if it was incorrectly.

Each 100 of the 10,000 have a different color (1 of 5 colors) and the colors repeat.

I went to look in the third blue section where it should be but before I finished finding where it should be, my eyes went to one of the other blue sections and I put two fingers in and split the blue section and there it was the exact one I was looking for.

So, I had knowledge of something I didn't have knowledge of before the dream.
