are there infinite universes?

[Stowned]

Well, I believe the concept and measurment of this "infinity' is man made and is therefor limited in it's constructs. Infinity is simply 'the vastness of which cannot be measured, calculated and determined by MAN'. What if there was something or some things significantly more complex than the infinity model and what if THAT something in itself it a 'condition' or several conditions rather than one measurment.

Now my question to you is this; Can this concept of infinity evolve with the advancement of our perception and if it can, would this infinity still be considered valuable givin the new definitions?

Perhaps we can't even begin to comprehend the truth in this matter? What if we are questioning that which cannot be answered? Would that make you stop questioning?

If I were a god, I would be greatly offended if someone were to try to measure me with their primitive perceptions.

So is the universe infinate? My answer is no, the universe is unfathomably more complicated then this concept of infinity. It encompass and harbours an imperceptibly vast amount of alternative calculations and conditions.

i like the holographic universe theory, our reality = projection from higher dimension onto our 3rd physical reality. http://www.crystalinks.com/holouniverse1.html good read~! :rastasmoke:

yes and no, to both
but of course, the main theme behind the infinite universes is that size is infinite, as in never ending.
that may sound like i claim to be able to comprehend the infinite (never ending) and i may understand this part of it, but nobody can truly grasp infinity because our minds are finite and have limits.

oh absolutely...indeed, theories are MEANT to be toyed with/cast aside. Every theory is constantly attempting to be disproven or changed.

It's nice that other stoners think about these things. I haven't met too many on my journey so far. Refreshing!

keep searching PT, theyre out there.
ive got a lot of time to think while om on probation and i decided that im going to expand my mind beyond its previous boundaries instead of destroying everything around me, ya dig?

i figure we are the definition of a fractal... you can infinately zoom in, and infinately zoom out. i believe once we comprehend infinite (or find a loophole in pi) we could comprehend the meaning of life. O.o

I wonder, if there were many or infinite universes, if we could clearly define where one ends and the other begins.

true, i was angry when i wrote that response to herbal.
i dont like being called a fool which is what i believe he implied.
ive read plenty of physics books, but this is just something that ive toyed around in my mind for a little while.
i know substantial evidence is required for a theory, otherwise its just a hypothesis, but a theory still isnt fact, thats why its theory and can still be toyed with and/orcast aside.

I never called you a fool nor implied you were a fool. I now call you a fool. Not because you asked questions about philosophy, but because you failed to see that in order to discuss it, you have to discuss everything scientific and religous. You blantenly said that physics and its theories have no place here. I am done with you dude.
Go read a book and educate your mind.

i was angry when i responded and wasnt thinking, obviously. yes science has its place in philosophy as well as religion. what i do not like is how you seem to think that theories are set in stone and have to be abided by. they dont have to be, thats why theyre theories and not laws. i apologize if i offended you.
your done, good for you.
open your mouth and suck my balls while i read a book and educate my mind.

to me it matters.
i maintain a philosophy of questioning most everything to gain an understanding of what i can and this is something that piques my interest

I hear you, but you can drive yourself crazy thinking about shit like that, it is also pretty unproveable. It's something people shouldn't waste their time trying to understand because it is incomprehensable by our minds.

well then, its probably a good thing im already insane...
