As a fellow atheist, I want to let you know you need to work on your understanding of science. We know time is warped by incredibly strong gravitational pull, and we know time moves slower when your moving at higher speeds. Time is not infinite, nor does it exist outside the natural world. Time is intertwined with space, and is subject to distortion from natural occurrences.If there is no space, there is no time. By the way, I mean no disrespect. Just want you to get your physics straight.
@1flickfinder if you make answers, make sure you know whole consept. matter isnt finite. when matter meets antimatter, it causes annihilation which produces gamma rays. And we dont have any idea what time is. time isnt the same anywhere. dont be ignorant when you try to make good atheist answers.
That is, if there were no matter and energy, there would be no time, so it's meaningless to speak of anything "before" the beginning of the universe. Interestingly, St. Augustine correctly answered the question of what God was doing in the infinite expanse of time before his creation of the world by arguing that time is only a property of the universe God has created.
Look at this atheist hedonist living for the moment! The tie, the jacket, the hip music—probably just getting off a little philosophy before heading out to the hottest nightclubs. He's clearly well on his way to becoming a very refined bon vivant. I expect we'll meet some day at the baccarat tables of Monte Carlo, where we'll drink Talisker and discuss Voltaire. However, you shouldn't say time has been here before the Big Bang, since time is a structural property of gravitational fields.
...the Bieber hair makes me want to run back to theism (preferably to a buddhist temple surrounded by bald people), but after watching a 10 hour vid of Bieber getting shot I've calmed down enough to stay an Athiest.
does time really exist? I think it's just a man made concept to describe the rate of decay. it's relative, if you were to travel the speed of light then time would affect you much differently than it would on earth. And what we call hours or days have no meaning in a place outside of our planet really. idk, just throwing out ideas.
oh and i heard you quote the bible, check out deuteronomy 22:28-29 29.
The Question if space is finite is quite old. The Old Greeks put it like that: You stand at the edge of the universe. If you held your arm out, the universe would than end at your fingertip.
What we experience as time, is simply change of physical states. Time has a direction because of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics. It says entropy always increases – things get disordered. Because of this stars form and produce all the elements that constitute your body and everything around you.
I have a few ideas on the first point (matter, space, time):
Matter is a state of energy (E=mc2). Energy cannot be produce or destroyed. However recent scientific findings show that the total energy of the universe equals 0 – attractive and repulsive forces are symmetrical. This makes it possible for a universe to occur from nothing due to quantum fluctuations (these are very common and happen without external cause).
@lukashoermann I agree, and just want to add two more things to this: Space may (or may not be) finite. We *think* it's finite, but it could very well be infinite, too. There's nothing in science that suggests it isn't or it is, that's why we don't know. Next is time. Time is not a concept, but is a physical thing, just as physical as space is. We discovered time is physical with general and special relativity by Einstein and the speed of light.
My question for you then, is where your definition of nothing comes from?
It would seem as though "nothing" in your case is really still the existence of these "quantum fluctuations". One would conclude then that this existence is actually "something" rather than nothing. And because mass(like energy) cannot be created or destroyed, the question is still where the mass of energy came from.
The nothing I have described, has a property determined by the laws of physics. It is rather weird but has been observed and measured that those laws allow that particles come into existence from nothing (Quantum fluctuation). Quantum fluctuations produce matter- and antimatter-particles.
@lukashoermann Because matter has positive and antimatter negative energy, the total energy is 0 during the whole process. Usually matter and antimatter annihilate each other instantly, but as I said, there is a probability that such an event could create a universe.
@lukashoermann However the nothing in our universe is not absolute, because it has properties. Absolutely nothing has never been observed and therefore we have no evidence that such a thing (or non-thing) even exists.
@lukashoermann hard to imagine that there could ever be the non-existence of everything, isn't it? I don't see how we could ever observe absolutely nothing. Its difficult to wrap my head around.
it does look brown, but that is mostly because of the lighting. :P
my hair is a lot like his, in certain light it looks brown, in other lifght it looks blonde. and i'm not saying ihe's under a colored light.
it's about what amount of light, the focus of the light, how many colors it bounces off of... there's so many things that changes when it comes to light : )
loved what you said about athiest being desprate, how ppl jump too "god did it" ive been in any disagreements about this and thats all i hear secondly i couldnt agree more gay rights
