Deep thoughts

Recommended Posts

I think everyone has an effect on it. This creates an UNFATHOMABLE amount of possible universes. However I like to imagine everyone having their own parallel universes. (it's such a great feeling to think of yourself so utterly insignificant to everything and everyone) 

I think there's a bunch of possible universes, but since the changes needed for them did not occur, they do not exist. There is only one universe which is the compound of all the changes made earlier in time.

How do we know this though?

There could very well be an infinite number of realities.

I don't think there's any evidence for it although honestly my opinion could be swayed

^like who/ what?

Not dragons. After years of experiments and disasters, we have concluded that magic is unable to affect or alter time in even the slightest way. As all known magic creates results that can be reached using technological means, we do not believe that time travel is possible. We could be wrong though :P

A few shower thoughts.

 

-If you were teleported by atom rearrangement, would your mind travel with you, or just, "get stuck"? Would you be the same person, with the same memories when you materialized at the other side?

 

-If there is a spirit world where you can live forever, wouldn't it become meaningless in the end? There has to be an endpoint to everything, so how would you handle the endless experience of eternal life? Mind you, I'm religious.

 

-Are other people truly people? I know that I, myself, have a consciousness, but how do I know that everyone around me isn't a robot from the future? This question actually gets really deep when you come to think about it.

 

-How many alternate universes are there? This question is deep because I think of my existence as a certain point in time. The future is already somewhat pre-determined by what I, and other people, think. That aside, if someone in the future travelled back in time, they would create a parallel universe, since they would obviously change SOMETHING there and create a paradox that can only be solved with the creation of other universes. The question is, are there any alternate universes at all? Am I in one right now? If so, what's the "main" universe? How far ahead is the furthest universe ahead, because it has to stand somewhere on the 'line' of time?

If there's no spirit world, isn't everything meaningless? There'd be no point to anything, because then when you die you cease to exist completely and all your accomplishments are nothing.

 

I think that because we have not experienced anything like heaven or eternal life or anything we can't really judge - it's like a baby trying to argue with a rocket scientist

True enough, and I'm not saying that there isn't, but what my point with that is, wouldn't eternal life become meaningless over time? Life without end is pretty much just experiences overlapping each other, and that has to get monotonous at some point. There are pretty much two solutions:

 

1. It doesn't exist. (I'm not implying anything here. At all.)

2. We possibly are elevated beyond experience.

-If your neural pathways were transported, then yes.

 

​-How many choices have you made in your life? Times that by all the number off people who have ever existed. Multiply it by all the different organisms which allowed life to become what it is now. Add them together. Did you get near-infinite? Or orange because aliens were burritos? 

 

If one were to go back in time but only observe and not interact, interfere or even allow anything to know you are there (cloaking device FTW), then nothing would change. If you did interact or something, a change may occur, regardless of how small the change is; maybe one guy decides to buy an orange slushie rather than strawberry.

DO YOU BELIEVE .. that is the question ..

 

so for me yes and no cause some of the theory s that come to light are just that hypothesis  .. no one really knows if there is Aliens or not.. until they prove other wise... then i will keep a open mind..

 

now for our choices in life ..it does  change or alters our own time line.. cause if you think about  it // what if or what could have been , if i had chosen that other girl friend or spend money on other things or even stayed home instead .. so we all change our futures with out knowing it..

 

for example eating that spicy food .. now if you left it alone your stomach would been fine.. but you choose to eat it and now your paying the price.. so in theory we have altered our future either in a good way or bad..

 

and for the universe above our solar system i feel there is more out there that we as normal humans have not yet discovered and we might never ever get that chance too.. do to our technology is limited to just basic functions ..for example computers we program to do things and say things but have we ever made a fully functioning robot  human from parts .. nope.. and the stuff there just creating is just that ..bits and pieces no one has been able to pull it all together to finish the puzzle

Apologies for the lack of updates, I've been on vacation for longer than I expected and without internet.

My next topic is below (In the white for convenience.):

Do you think any decision is truly moral?

 

My answer/pointless opinion:

Meh, maybe...

Take away religion, what we consider "right" and "wrong", and everything else that might have a factor, and think about a decision you make.

It impacts everyone, but it has to be right because of one thing or another. But all of that aside: is there such a thing as morality?

If you don't believe in God (no matter which) then there is no absolute laws and thus everything become justifiable ("everything is permitted",see Dostoievski). But logic alone won't lead us anywhere, except to madness (see Ivan Federovitch Karamazov). To me, there is indeed no absolute, universal law, laws depends on people, context...but considering that us humans are (ideally) equals, a moral action thus respects others' life despite our differences, and killing people in gays bars is fortunately not moral.

Don't worry, if you are religious there is still work to do (can a perfect god judge impefects beings?), here is only my opinion as an atheist.

But if anyone could question themselves as we are doing now...

True, but perfection is in the eye of the beholder.

Can something be truly perfect?

you are so right .. every person is unique ...a beautiful in there own way.. one might be very smart when another could be gorgeous .. its what you want to have in your life to make you complete .. this also goes with friends you don't want some one who is always negative in your life when your trying to have a good karma around you.. we are all different in our own ways

 

what one mans treasure .. is another mans garbage  .. ( talking about items )

Or maybe us humans just weren't designed to be able to fathom perfection?

Our perfection, like our perception, varies from individual to individual, but how do we know it's perfect?
