Universe Or Multiverse. (A Discussion) by johnydon22(m): 2:40pm On Apr 17, 2016
The universe as we know it is so large that it almost seem that we do not exist, our knowledge of what Our universe is the total unity of everything we know of.

Every tiny bit of string, protons, electrons, atoms, elements, compounds, the plants, stones, living organisms, planets, stars, dusts, nebulas, galaxies, dark matter and energy encompassed in the elastic plain of space/time.



In judging ourself and this universe, we are less than microbile creatures in comparison to it's size and constituents.

Components
Our standard cosmological model shows our universe is

-Dark Energy = 68.3%: This is an energy of nothing, unknown and weird to us

-Dark Matter = 26.8%: Unknown form of matter, massive but does not reflect light at all so is mostly invisible and unknown to us.

-Ordinary Matter =4.9% :[color=007700] this is every conventional matter in this universe, stars, planets, moons, asteroids, nebulas, hydrogen, helium constitute measly 4.9% of our universe.[/color]


Multiverse

Now the plot thickens when the idea of MULTIVERSE crops up..

Since the dawn of humanity's intelligence, the discovery of new outstanding aspects of reality has always battered us with overwhelming possibilities ..

From realizing our planet is not the only to one to knowing our system is not the only system and ultimately realizing our galaxy is 1 out of billions.

so MULTIVERSE becomes curious.

This is a hypothetical cosmological postulation that there may be not just only 1 universe but our universe is 1 out of an infinite number of universes.

Just as our universe is a collection of dark matter, energy and ordinary matter and space/time this entails that there are other universes alongside ours in a much extra-macro scale.

This suggests bubble-like universes and all differ in their manifestations, like not all might have the right amount of cosmological constant to possess stars therefore no planets or galaxies. this will be a dark formless universe

It is also known Parallel universes, Alternate universes.

cosmology, physics , astronomy , religion , philosophy, transpersonal psychology , and fiction , particularly in science fiction and fantasy have all coined ideas of multiverse



So now our subject of discussion is, what is your personal opinion about the state of nature, is it only restricted to 1 universe or is our universe 1 out of many?

Give your reasons and points for holding such speculation..

Is our universe alone or One out of many??

Evidence found is in favour of multiverses. The cause and effect law breaks down at the quantum level. That makes no sense unless we consider infinite possibilites. The weakness of gravity can be explained by a sharing of the force between verses. The universe is expanding,into something, which can contain other similar universes, no?
Why is there matter instead of antimatter? There is possibility of entire universes composed of antimatter alone. Membrane theory explains our world as a surface of a superdimensional membrane. And there are multiple membranes, which may contain other universes.

Don't even get me started on Quantum entanglement. That points to particles as manifestations of superdimensional objects. And where the hell do electrons pass through during tunneling??

There is possibly evidence that our space exists inside something else. After that,it's not much of a leap to conclude that the something contains other universes.

Still waiting for the follow up of the Einstein Albert motion gravity bla bla. That topic pretty much sent some nut outta ma head. I usually and still wondering the possibility of such far distant objects like the sun and it planetary bodies, earth and its circumnavigating moon, necessarily a product of objects attracting each other. Doubting is another cunning way of learning things more profoundly. Still freakishly overwhelmed by that topic.



Multi-verse! Mmmh. I don't give a rat-ass about the topic for now since experts working on that field have no iota of observable empiricism to go about determining its possibility.


I usually use this phrase to refer to the concept of multi-verse " plausible hypothesis"

I doubt if there is a universe made up of anti matter because according to an experiment carried out in university of Liverpool, where they mimiced the original state of the universe, it was discovered that more amount of matter than anti matter was made. Thus all the anti matter were anhiliated leaving a fraction of matter enough to make a galaxy.

This only holds true for this universe, Teems speculation in a case where these is an infinite number of universes (Multiverse)

One may produce more anti-matter than matter therefore all matter are annihilated.

so you see, if there is a multiverse all universes in it must not turn out like ours all will manifest in distinct ways in respect to the values of causality .

According to big bang cosmology, there was a period of accelerated expansion or inflation immediately after the big bang...now a consequence of this is as we know is that the universe is continually expanding or accelerating. However, due to the quantum fluctuations of space-time, some parts of the universe never actually reach the end state of inflation. This means that the universe might be eternally inflating.

But if space-time goes on forever, then it must start repeating at some point, because there are a finite number of ways particles can be arranged in space and time.

As the observable universe that we know expands as far back as light can travel in 13.7 billion years, maybe the spacetime beyond that distance is another universe

Wait, I need to ask whether you ask for the existence of parallel universes or bubble universes, for both are different fundamentally.



Anyways, I personally doubt the existence for Multiverses; the circumstances leading to this observable universe is so "dicey" (Der Herrgott würfelt nicht"wink that the existence for a multiverse seems doubtful to me.




On the other hand, what if, what if our choices/certain circumstances decided a part of the universe, our observable universe What if there is another branch, a parallel branch that holds a parallel you that took another choice.

So, in another universe, we have an hitler who never hated jews, we have a nuclear, ravaged, war torn universe from Russia and USA, and so on.


Problem is, I doubt it can ever exist.

What need would 'God' have for parallel universes.
Re: Universe Or Multiverse. (A Discussion) by donnffd(m): 8:35am On Apr 18, 2016
We presently dont have the means to test the multiverse hypothesis, so right now, it is pseudo-science, but it is an interesting idea and when we get to the weirdness of quantum states, the idea takes strong-hold in explaining reality.

In my opinion, the multiverse hypothesis still wont answer the question of the beginning of reality, if string theory is proven correct and we do really have a one dimensional string that is the building block of all that we know, then what is that string composed of and where did it come from?...did it start somewhere in the distant future, or has it always been?, these are questions that i would love to see answered but i am so certain that i wont and it saddens me.

In conclusion, i think there are some things about reality that we would never ever understand.

is it necessary for a neighbouring universes to be in anyway alike?....considering the fact our universe has all the necessary constants for star formation planetory formation etc.....now if we have a hypothetical multiverse where every possible combination is tried in each universe and ours was that which was suitable for forming stars and planets is it likely that if atall theres a multiverse all universes within would look thesame?...would it be neccessary have stars and planets or perhaps somethings else ........ heh there's only so much we can know wink

Hello donnffd,
The hypothesis of a multiverse and the quest for a greater understanding of the beginning of what you call reality, are independent. For the hypothesis of a multiverse to be investigated, it does not HAVE to answer all other scientific questions. So I don't see the reason, why Multiverses should not be examined, just because according to some, it may not answer this or that other question, which they hold more imporant.

donnffd:

I mean no offence, but this approach is unscientific. When you proclaim right from the beginning that some questions do not have answers, or that we can't have the answers, you give yourself only one option: to give up.

Back in the middle age. the understanding of earthquakes or the lightning, were inaccessible to men. Today, such phenomenon can be well explained.

So we should not assume that what we don't yet, is unknowable. Whatever is still unknown is just that, unknown. Let's investigate, and with time, passion and consistent efforts, we get a clearer light.

Greetings.

without empirical confirmation it remains a hypothesis and a blind speculation in essence.

I merely used "God" since that is what most are familiar with. For the record, I am not religious, neither am I into aethiesm, a vibe I'm picking up here.

The source of creation, or what most think they refer to when they say "God" is the "blackness" of space itself. Space is everywhere and it is intelligent.
.
And so I asked, what need has "God" for parallel universes as touted by academia and supported by Hollywood of Jet li's The One type-fame?

Your arguments here are interesting, but you are arguing theories made up by people who pretend they know what they are talking about.

It has been said that every conclusion is only as good as the premise upon which it is based. If the premise is in error, so will the conclusion be. Now being that it is... 'human' to base one conclusion atop another, it is self-evident how humankind multiplies its errors in conclusions exponentially and predictably.

Source of Creation or the cosmos or space or God--whatever--is orderly and has no need for parallels of the sort you argue.

What I see here is arguments for arguments sake, more so on conjectures, and I mean no disrespect in so saying.

Perhaps if science and religions would be so kind as to extract their heads from their collective rectums to work together as two equal and necessary halfs of a sphere, we as a species would be much further ahead in discovering Truths of Existence.

I initially wrote a long response to this thread in the particlar post you have quoted but scrubbed it. Just fyi. We indeed have much to learn as a species. Religions and science have failed woefully in that regard. It is little wonder why people tell themselves that they are atheists, the theologies are truly sickening, but... unfortunately, so is science.

what from whence came all this unnecessary banter and who in the world said i was arguing for a multiverse.

everybody knows when i argue..

and what in the world brought atheism into this..?

This is a discussion on what people think on the Hypothesis of multiverse not an argument please do not go about jumping into what is not there.

from the OP

So now our subject of discussion is, what is your personal opinion about the
state of nature, is it only restricted to 1 universe or is our universe 1 out of
many?

Give your reasons and points for holding such speculation..

Is our universe alone or One out of many??


Now i'd appreciate next time you don't go jump conjuring up arguments where there is none, read things and try to comprehend before meshing up unrelated posts in response, and if what you wrote above is supposed to be an argument then it's totally a pity.

That's much better. I prefer this tone. You have said what you needed to without speaking to me as if I'm Google bot. If something doesn't make sense, seek clarification not throw fits. My reference to aethiesm is not to you, I know to whom I speak. I do apologise if it appears that I called YOU an aethist, but you may not speak to me that way again, please. Thank you.

Now listen, here's my point. The topic is essentially "universe versus multiverse."

I am saying, that with regards multiverse--which is MY personal bone of contention--that its theory belongs to the acedemia, and they have a lot of theories which in my opinion are outrageous.

Again I ask, its a simple question really, what need has "God" for such?

Further more, I am saying, as a matter of 'discussion' that discussions and such based on false premises ends up nowhere.

Multiverse to my understanding claims that we each exist as infinite copies of selves in parallel 'identical' universes, moreso, doing and being different things. Have you seen Jet li's movie on the topic?

Folks, ultimately. The question to be asked is what is Truth of Existence. I think it's time to abandon theories, for the TRUTH of the matter is not beyond our understanding. I believe the academia is ill qualified to broach the things they do.

Everything from the model of the atom to the question of what electricity (which is front us) is, isnot true.

Of course, as long you take responsibility for this abominable deviation from the thread's topic.

An atom, the ultimate particle is nothing more than four concentric rings surrounding an area of space. It is all around in concept, for you to see without the need for a microscope. The atom is not as projected by Mr. Rutherford. There is absolutely no premise whatsoever for his model of the atom anywhere in creation. Chemically, the ultimate atom is the inert gas. Electrically, those rings are the electric current aka electricity.

Those rings have one task, to compress space into a sphere through a process which will constitute an extreme deviation and abomination from this thread's thrust. When that task is over, they expand back into "God" or space which birthed them. This phenomenon is plain to see in our solar system. Saturn's rings, anybody?
The problem with Science is it always assumes different principles for different scales. How anyone believes anything they say in spite of overwhelming evidence quite to the contrary marvels me.

"God" has not one set of rules for one affair, and a different set for another. If the acedmia could only overcome their hubris, they would see their own errors. But no, they prefer to go ahead pile one error atop another. Once upon a time it was classical physics. Today it's quantum physics. Utterly hilarious. Tomorrow?

These same people who will accept no input by anyone outside of their ranks who hints to them their errors, are the ones to be taken seriously about parallel universes?

I clearly understand, but you misinterpret me, I never said that the multiverse wasn't an hypothesis we shouldn't consider, I only said there is no way we can test it for now and that keeps it in the realm of pseudoscience. I also meant that if we do test the hypothesis and find out its true, then string theory must be true and then it poses a whole different question, where did string theory come from?, and finally when I concluded on we not understanding some things, I actually mean that, not because we should not strive to know but because our biology is probably not built to understand it. Look at chimps, the difference in DNA between our species is just 2%, but look at the gap, one can only understand rudimentary logic and the other General relativity.
What makes you think our brain has enough matter to understand some concepts the same way a chimp can't grasp quantum mechanics? Imagine a species with a DNA difference of 2% ahead of us, do you think we can grasp concepts those guys would?

I thank you for your meaningful contribution and your questions.

I never said we can answer all questions. There is no such thing as answering all questions.

My point is simple. When faced with challenges, there is the religious attitude and the scientific approach. The religious man says: it is impossible, it's a spirit, we shall never know, all wisdom belongs to Jah.

science says, I don't know yet, let's find out. If in the process we don't find out, we may find something else that maybe useful. Thats how evolution helped us develop DNA tests etc.

Last, if you have the ability to ask a question, then you are close to the ability to find the answer. Most questions we don't succeed to answer or we think we can't answer, it's because they ain't good questions in the first place.

If you can ask the right question then you can find the right answer.

Greetings.
