What do you think? — TheMadFool

"how can the universe have experienced infinity, that's what's implied, to get to this point (the here and now)"

I get your point. If you roll time backwards (which is the same as reversing all velocities of the particles in it though you might counter that this doesnt reverse expansion) it all comes together again. In the future it all matter ends up accelerating away from each other to infinity. Cant there be processes like this following up one another? BB- to infinity-BB-to infinity, etc. No bound in time or space.

What profile is that? Was he a moonatic?

What is the unitarity problem? — Andrew M

Sorry! I thought you would understand. You seem to know about it. I mean the non-unitary collapse of the wave function. The MWI of Everett does away with this. But at the points where a split into two worlds finds place, it seems that a comparable thing to collapse happens.

Bell constrains but not forbids. There even has been proposed an experiment to distiguish between pure, clean chance and dterminism.

Infinity, forwards in time, into the future, is not a problem — TheMadFool

Then why there is a problem backwards, in the past?

Nice question. I still must absorb it well. Somehow it reminds of Jalal ad-Din Rumi.

References to that small mustached shouting man seem to enter internet discussions regularly...

He just should accept his banning. The guy obviously wants to agitate! "WOLLT IHN DEN TOTALEN KRIEG?"

What, exactly, was there in the beginning such that to utter the words makes beginnings possible at all — Constance

God! Or a joint effort of more of them. The usual meaning of a beginning doesnt apply to his act of creation. His word must not be taken litterally. He usher the words "let it be", and the universe, in its eternity, came to be. It's the eternal and infinite universe we see today. Describable by physics (and math describing the physics) as far its material an spatiotemporal structure is concerned. God(s) stands on the outside of it (again, not an outside applicable litterally, as outside the house) and on the inside as well, as he created the universe from within himself.

So when you curse, God(s) curse(s) himself (themself). Comit suicide and you kill a part of God(s). Not that he (they) would mind, after all, that would be to confess his (their) own fallibility.

other undesirable features — Andrew M

Why are these undesirebale? Isn't the unitarity problem, in the MWI, shifted to the branching points?

So if you think the Higgs mechanism could be wrong - that there was something shonky about the dial reading at CERN - — apokrisis

What do you mean by this?

My book?

My book?

Dont worry... :smile:

Actually, it's not the Higgs mechanism discovered at CERN. It's the particle that goes along with the field.

Still, you havent talked physics with that guy proshin.
