Our known universe could be the three-dimensional "wrapping" around a four-dimensional black hole's event horizon.

There is nO truth, only turtles.

you guys sure got alot of faith in those theories.

I shall prove through math and a holy book that the earth is sitting on ani finite stack of turtles.

does this mean we can visit flat land by going to the event horizon of a bh in this universe

There actually is a video talking about the event horizon of a black hole being a holographc reality layer of sorts...not sure what the video was called though.

Our universe was created when God farted.
After being kick-punched in the stomach by Chuck Norris.

This is en essence exactly what this theory is saying!

They claim the 3D Universe was born from a 4D Universe, which would then have needed to be born from a 5D Universe, spawned from a 6D Universe and so on.

Turtles all the way down. And an "explanation" that explains nothing.

I feel so bad for you. With this stubbornness you will end up like Prometheus...

Only one power can stand against Zeus, and I pray She will free you before His Eagle descends upon your liver.

Pray to Artemis that She will spare you His wrath.

Big bang is a scam how did life form out of an explosion let me guess on sep11 new life forms where made bfs

Well, if I was going to make a theory, like they do not enough facts to prove anything, I would not start with the bang.

You look into the heavens and you see things, my they look like the inside of the brain of man, hum, got synapses and the all they other parts of the brain. Strange, if you look closer you see the atoms, all about the space, goodness.

We must be in a brain of some kind, or someplace in the body. That big bang was a sounds we heard from inside the big brain or body we are in. Oh, goodness what shall we do, the shaking we call earth quakes, are the body of it shaking off something that is wrong with it, could we be causing it?

There could be a mathematical equation to figure it out, before we do anything that would cause the big thing we are in, to think we caused a virus. We must be tiny compared to what we are in, lord, what have we been doing.

Does it know we are here? What if it doesn't, there could be another flood, like we had in history. It could be drinking fluid and the fires, could be heart burn. The water was to calm it. We, could be in a dangerous position. One wrong move and were could be wiped out of existence.

There may be a way to talk to it, we might, if we are inside its head we could send signals, we are here. That could be dangerous, if it gave it gets a headache, what we think as comets and meteors could be for pain, relief when we fire rocket, and bombs.

This needs many years of quite reflections. Oh, I just thought of something, what if we are it's dreams. I do not want to do anymore work, on this project. I have seen the error of my ways, I will go home and sit, while I can think, I am real.

Daddy, what is wrong with you? You don't look so good daddy, have you got a headache. Mom says, sometimes God gets a headache when, you talk about the big bang, when he did that himself, when he spoke the word, he loud you know. Mommy is smart, she said, it is best not to make, the one who made use mad, or give him a headache, he might take us out, like when he had a belly full of the things that happen before the flood. You think mommy smart to daddy?

Yes, sweetie I think she is smart. I like what she said, I think I sit here and think about it.

Glad I know he made the heavens to reflect man. That is how he hears us.

Yeah but the article said a black hole's event horizon in this universe is 2D which means if you went through it you would end up in 1D. 2D universe is skipped altogether, I think the article may be wrong.

that's some cool theory right there

hi

Sigh.

Then what created gawd?

Whether we were created by gawd or by some random explosion, the question of what came before the creation still remains.

I, too, have wondered if we were not mere thoughts.

The thoughts of a giant brain of a giant organism we can't begin to fathom.

It does seem that OUR thoughts can have an impact on the physical world around us, that we are birthing it with our intentions and dreams.

The collective subconscious, if you will.

I don't think we'll ever know for sure.

I do know that it doesn't take a whole lot of observation to realize that our reality is very much fractal in nature, and that it is also cyclical.

Chances are, what reality is and is not, the big bang or a black hole or whatever, is all a matter of perspective and nothing else.

I take comfort in the fact that everything we observe indicates that nothing is lost or goes away in this universe. It changes and recycles and expands and contracts and goes through metamorphosis, but it doesn't disappear.

I can't imagine that human consciousness (or consciousness in general) would be the one exception to the rule.

Indeed, I have a theory that consciousness is as much a part of the fabric of the cosmos as space and time, and that the extent to which anything or anyone is able to experience consciousness has to do with the matter in which the consciousness becomes entangled.

But that's another thread.

infinity of infinities

This.

It is everything that every was or ever will be.

We will all experience it all, I think, or have experienced it all, from virtually every perspective imaginable.

It's the only way we can learn.

it's not about infinite learning, it's about infinite experiencing.

What is experiencing if not learning? Everything you experience teaches and molds the you that you were yesterday into the you you will be tomorrow.

Splitting hairs...

The nothing does not exist, so the nothing cannot create.
Something had to be already in existence for the BigBang to be triggered.

Read your published story.I had a vision sometime ago where I saw that Universes are formed through the stored energy sucked by black holes.That energy has to go to somewhere else,nothing is lost,everything is transformed. When that space(dimension) is filled to its capacity,it explodes,giving birth to a new Universe.
My theory is a bit different but somewhat similar to your presented story.

It is testable.

They're working on it.

"It is difficult for the matter-of-fact physicist to accept the view that the substratum of everything is of mental character."
-Arthur Eddington 1882-1844

"As careful attention shows, thought itself is in an actual process of movement. That is to say, one can feel a sense of flow in the stream of consciousness not dissimilar to the sense of flow in the movement of matter in general. May not thought itself thus be a part of reality as a whole?"
-David Bohm 1917-1992

“A human being is a part of the whole, called by us, “Universe,” a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest — a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness."
- Albert Einstein 1879-1955

All of our greatest scientists sooner or later come to understand consciousness as the ground of our existence, literally that source from which we and all else arose.

(Of course, the spiritual folks have always known this....;-)

Still so much to figure out!

This, in a nutshell.

It was the moment of awareness that spawned everything that followed, and that awareness is a part of everything that was spawned.

Because without an observer, we are left with virtually nothing.

Quantum physics demonstrates this clearly.

I think many people have a misconception of the idea of god or creator.

Alas, that is just me.

Good vibes your way.

Agreed. I believe there are an infinite amount of galaxies in each atom so we are essentially made up of an infinite amount of galaxies and out galaxy is but a fraction of an atom of a much larger galaxy....for all we know our "big bang" was someone in the bigger galaxy dropped and broke their plate lol

Stoners said this shit 15 years ago. Fuck hawkings.

I am with you on this, But I wonder what did God Create It All With?
