Is there such a thing as "Nothing"?
Yes.Is there such a thing as "Nothing"?
Not true according to science:Yes.
Nothing =vacuum
IDK, but I did see a canoe go by me house one day with a car under it.Yes.
Nothing =
Is it good if a vacuum really sucks?
The universe expands into what? This begs the "Q" I asked before..Does there have to be something existing to have "Space".Not true according to science:
Dark energy makes up approximately 68% of the universe and appears to be associated with the vacuum in space. It is distributed evenly throughout the universe, not only in space but also in time – in other words, its effect is not diluted as the universe expands. The even distribution means that dark energy does not have any local gravitational effects, but rather a global effect on the universe as a whole. This leads to a repulsive force, which tends to accelerate the expansion of the universe. The rate of expansion and its acceleration can be measured by observations based on the Hubble law. These measurements, together with other scientific data, have confirmed the existence of dark energy and provide an estimate of just how much of this mysterious substance exists.
Space, there's more space than we can imagine. Just like George Carlin said, we need a bigger space for more "Stuff"The universe expands into what? This begs the "Q" I asked before..Does there have to be something existing to have "Space".
;a boundless three-dimensional extent in which objects and events occur and have relative position and direction <infinite space and time>
Clearly, God created the universe because He needed space for His stuffSpace, there's more space than we can imagine. Just like George Carlin said, we need a bigger space for more "Stuff"
I hope we are not going down the God rabbit hole to come up with the origins of where space came from.![]()
Billy Preston is in me head now.In Jr High School, we came up with this analogy. Say, you have a paper bag with nothing in it. If you turn the bag upside down, nothing falls out. We summed this up as an excuse for Nothing, to be Something. But clearly it is not. Nothing is the lack of something. Nothing = Nothing.
....just give it some time.I need more space........
Maybe you should've thought about the consequences before slammed a desk into your head. (Relativity.)Now my head hurts. Is that because you made me think, or because i'm banging it on the desk?
The 3-dimensional space is unbounded, but it's not infinite, and it expands into a 4th dimension. Imagine the surface of a balloon. If you are a 2-dimensional being living on the surface of the balloon, you can move in any direction on the surface, and never reach an edge, so the space is unbounded. But it's not infinite. The surface curves through a 3rd dimension that the 2D being cannot perceive, and it has limited size when viewed from that 3rd dimension. If you blow up the balloon, the surface area of the balloon increases, because the balloon is expanding into the 3rd dimension. Same for our universe. It is a 3-dimensional "surface" expanding into a 4-dimensional "space" that we 3D creatures cannot perceive.The universe expands into what?

Reminds me of the Animal House clip talking about the one tiny Universe under his fingernail while smoking his first joint:Very deeeep, man. Just makes my mind hurt... so dude, why are we?

I would like to think that God has forgiven George Carlin for his atheism and that somewhere they are having a good laugh over this.
This is exactly how the annual budget appropriations for the United States are determined: spending is unbounded, but it's not infinite, and it expands into a 4th dimension. :wink:The 3-dimensional space is unbounded, but it's not infinite, and it expands into a 4th dimension.

God Is ImaginarySoooo.....If God created the Universe,....Who created God?
(I've yet to get an acceptable realistic answer from any religious person)
Dark Energy is the life entity of all past humans?
This might also describe my appetite and what's going on with my belly.This is exactly how the annual budget appropriations for the United States are determined: spending is unbounded, but it's not infinite, and it expands into a 4th dimension. :wink:
That's a common misconception. It's an expansion OF space, not an expansion INTO space. Things that are moving further away from us due to the expanding universe are not receding by moving THROUGH space --- space itself is filling into the space between us.Space, there's more space than we can imagine. Just like George Carlin said, we need a bigger space for more "Stuff"

My theory Exactly.God Is Imaginary
John, we are doing good today, mentioning god and not getting reprimanded by the moderators. I am a little disappointedMy theory Exactly.
Hi, since the mods are on vacation, I'm your lousy sub today.John, we are doing good today, mentioning god and not getting reprimanded by the moderators. I am a little disappointed![]()
