I know I'm gonna regret this but I can't help it... I have more than an unhealthy fascination with the big questions. Yanno, like WHY are we here or WHAT makes us who we are?
Hubby has a theory that this is actually Purgatory...Something like we are <
I will posit that most of you believe in a god(s) or no god(s) and that most of us are already aware of the traditionally taught theories... Yea, we get it. I want to hear the untraditional ones, pretty please?

If it turns out it's all a dream, where do dreams go when people wake up?

The Infinate Discovery Engine, silly...
Actually, I have this line in my head from Peter Pan about I'll meet you in the space between your dreams?...
OR Maybe they get carried away on the back of a giant turtle...
You wantin' to wake up now, hon?

I want to know how image and video files are stored and viewed in the brain.

The same "god particle" that allows us to recognize we exist?
I'm more interested in how those files get corrupted and distorted for evil intent.
So far all's I got is free radicles...

Anybody see that study that said that the difference in the power of "anti-matter" and "matter" is like a piddley 1% in favor of matter and that's why the universe has matter? That's how my limited understanding of the subject is, anyway...That's a real headscratcher.
So, is the difference between Luke Skywalker and his father just 1 percent good?

If anti-matter exists how would we even be able to detect it? Wouldn't all our pro-matter-based instruments say "there's nothing there"?

Lookup>> Antimatter Academy
Something about when you have an antimatter particle and it hits a matter particle you get boom?
Wiki says an OLD theory was antimatter gives off antigravity???? but it makes about as much sense as anything else...

(to what!? ummm idunno???) Kinda like an infinate discovery engine. Or at least that's my take on it...
So if we all live an infinite number of lifetimes, playing out every possible life in every possible way then we would never move on. How would we ever be finished all the possibilies? We would just go on for infinity never reaching an end.
I've never gone for the theory of alternate universes/timelines playing out different variations of the one we know. It's good for TV and movies but that's it. I can wrap my head around the idea but it's just too improbable. Like infinity, endless, everlasting and other terms like these they are just concepts brought in to explain what we don't know or understand and (as humans) never will.
There is only the one reality or universe IMO. This one, the one we're in. It's full of stuff we will come to understand in time and full of even more stuff that we won't.
As for offbeat theories - and I don't believe this one but kinda like it. How about we are all just some aliens science experiment to see what happens?

Yeah, Star Trek NG had that one when you put all DNA together, up pops the "Founders" to say "Do you like what we've done for ya?" Quite a few celebs subscribe to that one, and it's fun to toy with...
Way I thought, infinity was just our word for a really freakin' long time or space. Just 'cause you can't see the end, doesn't mean there ain't one. Everything gotta have a start and a stop...
