Here we are

by Don Case on Monday, August 22, 2011


We are but a speck in time and in the universe so what makes us think we are so important?

Thinking out of the box in a big way is a possible answer. We have discovered

Black holes

where every thing gets pulled in including light, how big can they get? We have discovered

White holes

that seem to create matter. And we have discovered

Dark matter

that seems to fill in all the spaces we thought were empty. We are even creating

Digital Molecular Matter

as a new concept.Add the concept called time

WHAT IS TIME? WHAT CAUSES TIME?

and things go into different dimensions and realities.

If there was a black hole big enough it may have taken what was then the universe in and that matter came out from a white hole known as the big bang.

That brings us back to time of which Albert Einstein said, referring to the passing ofa friend,

"Now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me.

That means nothing. People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction

between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion."

So the man that defined time and space thinks of it as naught. Yet he was a religious man saying,

"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind."

But how can religion be the answer to existence?

Religion

is a man made idea and comes in many forms. Back to our ultimate scientist, Albert said

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."

We are just embryos compared to the universe, what gives us the right to say we know who and how it was made? Theories are just that theories and we all have them.

"Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods." (yup our good friend Albert again).

And this, "A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space.

He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."

"Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts."
