God v No God

[Proper Bo]

Everything I asked was relevant to points made by others.
Your question was asking me something about I never said, i don't think I said the universe was infinite or had an end, I just questioned others perceptions.

[Mr. Mulder]

yeah, cocksnot.

[Seedler]

h4rsh?

But how can the universe contract if it doesn't end?

You seem to be equating contraction with ending... that's incorrect reasoning Bo.

I gotcha.

But how can the universe contract if it doesn't end?

How do you know it doesn't end?

Totally unrelated.

Busy, you usually ask stupid questions when you don't know the answer to something. Whenever you do that, it signifies to me (prolly others too) that you don't have a clue how to answer and are trying to misdirect the person or people countering your weak assertions.

Since we're all in the same boat of complete ignorance, this thread must seem like a veritable safe haven, eh.

v. con·tract·ed, con·tract·ing (kn-trkt, kntrkt)

To reduce in size by drawing together; shrink.

How can something which is supposedly infinite become smaller?

[Barbarossa]

Why do you think it's infinite?

[Proper Bo]

The only thing which would lead me to think it was infinite is the sheer difficulty of trying to picture anything beyond.

edit: but it's also hard to imagine there being a beginning, well, anything before the beginning actually.
