Theories of the Universe

[Valerie]

I like chaos theory

I'm so sorry for you.

 

[Bothering]

I like the bang-and-crunch theory. It really makes sense. The thing is, how do we prove it?

It's just one of those things you either accept or dismiss (seeing as you can't prove somthing if you no longer exist)

I saw a program on the Science Channel last night about how it may be possible to create a wormhole by stacking lasers on top of each other, intersecting from 90-degree angles, stacked with steadily increasing power until it creates a distortion in space time (like when you stir a spoon in a cup of coffee). The scientist thinks that this can theoretically create a wormhole that may be able to create pathways across "wrinkles" in the fabric of space-time, and thus allowing time travel.

Wouldn't a wormhole, or distortion in space time theortically distort matter as well? One of the main problems with time travel is the end result: The particles being broken apart will not reassemble (in the exact same formation) on the other end of the vortex.

So if I threw a pencil into the vortex would it turn into a blob?

 

[Bothering]

If only I could create a vortex and tell you...

 

[Manic Ferocity]

But I think it's a waste of time (no pun intended) and I thank Chaos Theory for my reservations against going back in time. Going forward, however, is a different story.

I don't believe in Chaos Theory. I think matters naturally resolve themselves for the better.

 

[Zephyrus]

I just think it's quite reasonable to think that the trivial instances in a long enough sequence, whereby each consecutive event is dependent on the previous, can add up to something profound.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

Well it also depends on your perspective. You could argue that everything is reduced to solitude which is the opposite of chaos. When you dead, you're obviously not in a chaotic state.

Yeah!

What the fuck are you talking about/referring too?

Human matters? Such trivial and rudimentary things matter not to microscopic dictators of our existence!

 

[cookiecutter]

If Star Trek has taught me anything, it's that time travel is always cool and never has any consequences.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Haha "cool" like "OK with the universe".

 

[cookiecutter]

No, like Captain Picard saving JFK. That would be so awesome.

 

[Pessimism]

 

[The Ozzman]

Am I the only one that thinks Star Trek is fucking gay?

 

[Valerie]

Am I the only one that thinks Star Trek is fucking gay?

Go get fucking assimilated. Just try to resist. It'll be futile.

 

[Pessimism]

Am I the only one who thinks we need a thread about hilarious AIM conversations?

 

[Zephyrus]

No, like Captain Picard saving JFK. That would be so awesome.

But what's the point of doing so if there are no consequences? Just for the hell of it?

 

[Manic Ferocity]

Human matters? Such trivial and rudimentary things matter not to microscopic dictators of our existence!

Do you think microscopic dictators are any different? I would think they would resolve themselves the same way as humans.

 

[mutantllama]

Am I the only one who thinks we need a thread about hilarious AIM conversations?

Nope.
