Check your mail... We were writing at the same time — Hillary
We were! I just saw you were online! — Hillary
Plausible yes but I don't see why I had to be online at the moment you send a PM with a physics question. I would have noticed the PM as soon as I came online. — universeness
So I should have written it immediately after the offer? "The offer stands for 12 hours only!"? — Hillary
Especially when your credibility is already compromised Mr roleplaying athiest. — universeness
The most shallow vessels make the loudest noise.
You are lost! — universeness
Doesn't require an infinite past, just initial conditions.You could push away the popping into existence to an infinite past — Hillary
If indeed the arrow of time is associated with thermodynamics, this doesn't preclude a (thermodynamically) static quantum system from being the fundamental basis from which it emerges.To say its an eternal structure makes sense only from the emergent thermodynamic, unidirectional time perspective, as experiences in the two universes emerging on it periodically (each new pair with a new beginning in time). The question is: who the fuck made that 4d structure? Answer: gods created it to run a material version of the eternal etherical heaven on. — Hillary

-The universe is made from non-intelligent dead basic material
-Dead, non-intelligent basic material can't bring itself into existence. It's simply not smart enough.
-Conclusion: intelligent gods have brought the basic material into existence. They are the reason of existence, whatever that reason might have been. — Hillary
But how do you deal with theory of evolution? — SpaceDweller
so the eternal gods could watch them over and over again — Hillary
One problem is that big bang is modern theory of universe, therefore a God which is the creator of big bang (or a series of big bangs) does not fit into any of the revelations about God that we have today.
In other words with such hypothesis you're creating a new religion. — SpaceDweller
A good thing is that life out of water can't be reproduced with all the technological advancements we have. — SpaceDweller
I think it's either biological phenomena or God, but how to construct arguments on these 2 hypothesis is beyond my imagination. — SpaceDweller
