Re: OT: What is the Universe Expanding into?
even nothingness is something.
Or you could look at it this way, nothingness is time static. You fall into a void, but no matter how far you fall time has no meaning because the void is timeless. So you could fall for a centillion years to the 1 centrilllionth power and not fall that far.
Example:
Tribes maps. The map exsist, it has form and function and it something that a tribes player can interact with and exsist upon. Fall off that map and you will fall forever into the void beyond. The nothingness that is the void is devoid of all forms of physical form and function. In a digital world if I fell from a tribes map in 1998 and left the game on, I would still be falling today.
But to grasp the concept that the universe is endless and is expanding into something, even if that something nonthingness, that nonthingness was there first, and had to give birth to the universe itself.
What came before the universe? All of this matter, energy, and such had to have come from somewhere it could not have just all of a sudden exsisted out of nothingness now could it?
And if we can understand the concept of time and space, the universe and death, why are we alone? No other creature on earth, that we know of, has ever, say for man, pondered the universe and what lays beyond it.
Mybe the universe only exsist as long as we think it does. That when the Last human dies, so dies this universe. So by reproducing, we keep the universe, and the genes that make up our race, passed down from one generation to the next for nearly a million years, stay alive.
