I have just watched an
interesting Horizon documentary about the size of the Universe. It has now been proved the Universe is
infinite, not that I ever thought it wasn’t.
Still they only did the triangulation to a few decimal places so perhaps
that might change in the future, once they can increase the accuracy by a few,
hundred thousand decimal places.
Anyway this is not what I was
going to discuss. I was thinking about
good old dark energy and how it is pushing the Universe, accelerating the
speed in which we are expanding. The
good old BBC doesn’t seem to be able to make a documentary about the Universe
without first telling us for the umpteenth time about dark matter and dark
energy.
I decided quite by accident to
imagine the purpose of the dark energy, what could it possibly be needed
for? The only conclusion I could come up
with is a philosophical one; it must be to store all the knowledge of our universe
and the other universes that make up the multiverse, and then this might also
be storage for whatever else the rest of the Universe might be, what I call the
infinitiverse.
Basically dark energy is like
memory, or hard drive space in your computer, only it never gets full it just
constantly expands. It could be possible
that the subconscious thought patterns of all things in the Universe (we cannot
be sure we alone have a subconscious/conscious or for that matter that subconscious/conscious is
the only way to think) are stored in this way. This would give us a convenient answer as to
why the Universe is expanding. Even if
we use our own species and think of every person who has ever existed, imagine
how many cubic metres of dark energy that has been added to the universe.
Perhaps it is too convenient, but
it does give us a philosophical answer to the question of dark energy and why
it exists and its purpose for existing. It
becomes especially important if we add in the fact there might be other
dimensions, and the plausibility of many versions of one’s self.
How fascinating would it be if dark energy was just the manifestation of heaven itself.
Anyway it was just a thought
after watching the Horizon doc.
what is dark is Truly Light! I love that
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly when I watched and learned about dark matter... Maybe tat is where heaven exists and why we so ghosts from time to time.....I know scientists and non believers would say no but perhaps just perhaps this is where we go ......just a thought...
ReplyDeleteIt makes sense that the energy from our bodies goes somewhere when we die. Why not dark matter. It doesn't have to be a philosophical or religious answer. Just science.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you think so, but to many it would be classed as pseudoscience, that's why I said philosophically, and I am not religious so I feel I am just trying diplomatic.
Deleteto be diplomatic.
DeleteJohn 14:2 My Father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?
ReplyDeleteI too have thought about this. We call dark matter "dark" just because we cannot see it. Perhaps it is just the difference between the material world and the spiritual world. What we "see" as light in the material world is just our brains interpretation of photons striking our optic nerve, all material items. The bible says that when Gid created the world, He created "light", or the process of seeing light in the material world. We do not have the capability to see "light" in the spiritual world, dark matter. Wasn't there sight before God created "light" in the physical world? Perhaps what we see is not the true light of the universe, that true light eluminate style entire universe, including "dark" matter.
