size is infinite.
is our universe contained within a single atom on a blade of grass in some cosmic vacant lot containing an infinite number of other universes?
but there must be an end to amount of universes?
the finite mind cannot comprehend the infinite, it can only think it can.
is there some convergance point where the infinite universes merge?
could this be god?
but if this was god, how could it be watching over humans selectively while there are an infinite amount of other universes?
could it be that this god figure is infinite as well?
but how could a singularity be infinite?
when we burn a log for fire do we destroy countless other universes?
what about this universe?
what happens when the cosmic vacant lot dries up?
does this world dry up and become an arid desert wasteland?
Alot of your questions are just some basic physics. I suggest you go pick up a copy of a "Brief history of time" by Stephan Hawking.
As for some other questions, i will answer some.
How can a singularity be infinite? Think about our universe. Hubble proved back in the 1920's that the universe was expanding apart. If the universe was expanding apart, it must have been closer at some point in the past. This is known as the Big Bang, when all the matter in the universe exploded from one singularity. In the distant future, the universe may collapse into the big crunch when all this matter will come smashing back together.
In black holes, if the singularity with all the mass was finite, meaning it had definition of size, it would not be a singularity. It would be this ball of mass with a radius and measurement. Instead a singularity is without size and is thus its mass must be infinite.
When you burn a log, I highly doubt your destroying some civilization in some random universe. Besides, even if you did, they would have a totally separate definition of time. Your 1 second could be 10 billion years for them if they did exist.
As far as our vacant lot drying up, I highly doubt it will ever happen. Even in the vacuum of space in the middle of nowhere, tiny quarks form making particles and anti-particles in equal ratio from risidual energy. These two particles are then attracted by gravity and annihilate one another in a brilliant display of energy. That energy then reforms as a particle and an anti-particle.
Go read some books and educate your mind.
