My guess is that we'll still be struggling with this theory centuries into the phase whence we've become capable of sub-light travel. And it will be ignored and never solved if space exploration is entirely privatized. They'll be much more interested in outsourcing laborious tasks to lower gravity off planet situations where corporations don't have to pay workers as much because things aren't as heavy

Now here you go, the true blue American capitalist's lust for the future...private space exploration for a whole planets...of slaves.

Finally, a place where we can go where there are no rights inalienable and endowed by their creator. These new slaves will "have no rights any earthling is bound to respect."

Imagine of we'd found sentient but ancient beings on the moon. There would be a round trip MoonBuses leaving Dulles everyday.

Now...get back to work.

you mean there are rights inalienable or no lienable rights there?

Seems to create in our minds such a thing as even a single additional universe...is to create another god.



Like Butch said belief in God is way easier than much of the scientific theory that is out there.

really out there.

From the video:
"They finally have their complete explanation of the birth our Universe."

Glad to hear there are some happy scientists, I hope it lasts a few months or even a year.

Oh they'd have a lien alright...a lifetime lien on your ass. They'll be called Moon Labor Inc. and slaves...er employees and as in the recent 20th century, would work for say 50 years and...owe the boss money. On the moon you see as in America now, the faith would be in the profit of man. Well ok...some men.

Maybe not, have you heard the theory that if someone manage to look back far enough to observe the big bang itself, it will alter the nature of the big bang and thus alter the nature of the universe?

i.e., The observer being part of the experiment, in altering the initial conditions of the big bang by observing it, the observer could undo themselves, preventing themselves from coming into existence and observing the big bang.

Maybe you're right, we'll probably be struggling with it for centuries because every time we find the answer, we'll have to start over again.

Either that, or find a Trafalmadorian and ask him.

This explains what happened before the singularity – before the big bang. Maybe God is there, no I don’t think so.

There was time before the big bang and infinite universes.

You will never be able to use science to disprove the existence of god(s). There will always be unknowns and that is where god(s) hides.

You can't know what you can't know.

I don't know why you're recommending I Corinthians 2:11 to me. I'm not the one claiming to know something, wilbeurdaddy is. But since you brought it up, I'll just mention in passing that the passage you referenced means exactly the opposite of what you claim. It helps to read things in context:
    10: But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
    11: For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
    12: Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
In other words, Paul is saying here that by "the Spirit of God" within us we can know "the deep things of God."

Of course that means we have to take your word for it - and what man knoweth the things of a man? Which vastly increaseth the complexity of that particular hypothesis.

Oh. My word that the spirit of God is within me. Of course. Silly Kirata. And since you're not a lying little shit, you'll be only too happy to point out where my "word" to that effect can be found. Right?

I have faith in the mathematics even if they can't physically prove what the numbers tell us.

After years of work, M-Theory still remains incomplete and of dubious testability and predictive power. Odd you should have such faith in it as the "explanation" of anything. But I guess that's just the nature of faith, eh? And, of course, you want others to know the truth too. I understand perfectly. You're a good little missionary. When you die you'll go to the Big Brane in the sky.

My goodness, you do have a droll sense of humor. You're the one who came in here waving the Bible, citing chapter and verse like a Sunday morning preacher, claiming I Corinthians 2:11 means something it doesn't. Did it never occur to you that somebody might look it up and see that you don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about?

Or did you think everyone would just... damn, what's the phrase I want, oh wait I know... "take your word for it."

I don't recall offering any interpretation whatsoever, seems pretty clear to me, the unknown variables rapidly begin to multiply, it's the nature of the beast.

You explained the obvious,  so... what?
