Time(duration) is finite(about 150 billion years i think)...it has beggining and end...

Every dimension is infinite by your theory.

So,what is before big bang and after big crunsh?

Sorry about my bad english...

@ydamoydamo Each dimension is a subset of the next, and each dimension is infinite. This is the same concept as thinking of the number series starting 0,2,4,6... and the number series 0,1,2,3,4... - each head towards infinity, and yet one is a subset of the other.

What's "before" and "after" the universe? A return to the underlying symmetry state. Our universe or any other arises from a breaking of that symmetry.

Thanks for writing!

I have a question about your description of how the dimensions interact, if 4D is time, then isn't it possible to have the first, second, or even zero dimensions with time but without the other dimensions? Duration can be applied to anything, not just 3D space.

[10thdim]

@Thatguywiththelaptop Yes! As I've said many times with this project, for our imaginary 2D flatlanders, time wold be a direction in the third dimension, and so on.

If i can change the duration, will i feel like that running an easy marathon with 2 hours, while normal runners put so much effort like 4 hours plus?

In the math realm, there are objects which have infinite surface areas even though their volume is finite. Consider the 3rd dimension as curved upon itself to become virtually infinite, like how a sphere's surface is infinite in a sense. If a orthogonal vector is drawn from the surface of a sphere, you will get different relative angles depending on your vectors starting point. Perhaps a line drawn orthogonally to the 3rd dimension is relative to one's position.

Nothing is infinite, since you eventually must arrive at the minimum unit of space/time possible.

Why not points on the Tesseract chain. The fourth dimension changes a point goes through in a fold cycle. All seem very fractal to me. If all matter a contortion point in the flip it makes sense that we view things in stagnate motion with us. While things farther away are in different stages of the cyclical folding cycle. and if this all makes sense than the second dimension you have to be well point couldn't perceive only going into directions because it intersects with three lines? This is fun

you could have at least told us WHY theres so many trucks

@travb35 Watch 'Chuck Missler Kabbalah Session 02' at the 20minute mark it shows that using the bible code, about 30 trees are all named in that one short paragraph. NOW, if thats real..then without a shadow of a doubt, the codes have got to be right!

[year2044]

@travb35 Thats where I disagree, IF the codes r 'real', no human could have done it without very modern technology (computers), other wise I would think it would take thousands of top thinking Jews about a thousand yrs to write the Torah with those secret codes, so IF they r real GOD placed them there OR we have some very signifigant 'lost human history' (Genesis says God 'RE-plenished the earth' not 'plenished the earth') which could mean there is a lost history 'nothing is new under the sun'

umm 0k i still dnt understand wtf u saying.. sigh
