Not really, nothing is made up. It just that it will take time to realise, which now is not possible because not many people can follow up after the discovery.

[@angusmctwangstick4079]

There can never have been a point in the history of everything that there was TRULY nothing. If there was TRULY nothing, ABSOLUTELY nothing at all (no energy, no matter, no space, no fields, no dimensions etc.) then it would remain nothing forever because there would be nothing to cause a change.

If you listen to neuroscientist, psychologist & philosopher of mind Iain McGilchrist - who is significantly more qualified than either of these 2 - he explains that physicts don't actually know what matter IS. Particles and/or waves are interpretations derived from mathematical models - we do not understand their actual real-lfe ontology. We are mapping their behaviour & states, not describing what their fundamental nature is. And as McGilchrist argues - explaining what matter is is every bit as perplexing as trying to explain what conciousness IS (which is what I study in my PhD - we have absolutely no idea what conciousness is either). Physics describe matter as anything which occupies space & has mass. This isn't an explanation of what matter is but what it's properties and attributes are. Science is a process that measures & predicts states of change through mathematical models of abstraction. But measuring and predicting in laboratory environments doesn't explain what things fundamentally are in actual existence - just like Google maps will give you useful information allowing your movement through a 3 dimensional world - but the map is a representation of the world, not a explanation of actual reality. We don't know anywhere near as much nor possess the certainly Gervais does - he doesn't adequately understand physics to offer any useful insight. Although I do love his work as a comedian!

That is a total misrepresentation of science...scientists prove what we do know and utilise hypotheses to attempt to understand what we don't, at no point does any scientist rely on a miracle, the fact that we are communicating through the Internet right now is evidence enough of the utility of the scientific method, if the current hypothesis on any matter is disproved it is amended immediately to reflect that which is provable, at no point does science claim to know everything, it's such a hypocritical, regressive cop out to pretend science is fallible whilst using a smart fone, driving a combustion engine, having indoor plumbing, turning electricity into lamplight etc etc etc....if u were truly of the opinion science is wrong u would not be communicating here, it's only wrong for u when it clashes with ur personal beliefs, instead of denigrating science it would make much more sense to lobby ur religion to take into account recent advances in knowledge, like has happened countless times throughout the history of Christianity for example

Back in the 1960s - Ireland - I read my Catechism and it told me: "God made the world" - most of my contemporaries look back and laugh at that period - leave me to my Catechism - I fully respect the beliefs/non-belief of agnostics and atheists - I just settle for the ridiculously short and simple: "God made the world" !!!!

Don’t think about the things you don’t think about, lol.

[@alanwilson2342]

Belief in God is not simple, it’s a complexity beyond any and all scientific theories combined. Ones belief is in and infinite being that has infinite knowledge and understanding of existence and that which could exist. Only God can make the infinitely possible, probable. Your catechism is but the briefest summation for a limited creation. Humanity is limited. Yet when you’re lost in an unknown cosmos, with billions of others who all say I don’t know the way and one man says I can lead you all home. Logic, probability and survival, dictates I have to follow that one who claims to know and be the way.

[@retroray58warby98]

@ -Seems pretty straightforward forward to me. You can’t understand something or explain it so God did it.

[@alanwilson2342]

@ why should we understand or be able to explain anything that exists. It was the scientist on this video who said “ I don’t know’”. The Christian response is almost the same but with one addition. I don’t know but I know him that does.

[@purpleprinc3]

@@retroray58warby98 It is simply a logical conclusion based on the observations around us. Something cannot come from nothing. There is order in the universe such as the speed of light being a constant. That is clear design. You cannot disprove or prove God however, that level of information is simply beyond us for now, we haven't even travelled to the bottom of our oceans let alone past the moon (allegedly). But for people who are sincere and genuine, there are clear signs of a creator.

How can time have a beginning? The universe can have a beginning - AN EVENT, but how can you have an event without time existing? If the universe vanished tomorrow, time would still exist.

[@JMW-ci2pq]

no. Time is a human convention. The universe is wave sets of inertial states. Life on Earth shares a common inertial state.

[@purpleprinc3]

@@JMW-ci2pq How we measure time is a human concept but time itself exists, it is entropy the rate of decay. Time or rather decay can only speed up or slow down depending on the gravitational forces. If it something that can be affected, it is something that was created. Time can have a beginning and an end, the universe is a time bubble.

[@JMW-ci2pq]

​@@purpleprinc3 This is probably beyond the limits of this medium of exchange for this discussion (no offense) but here's a beginning: "time" is a misnomer. the fabric of the Universe is a complex interwoven / interactive Em-Tension field. The Universe we observe and exist within is a complex pattern of inertial states of wave forms rippling through the 'fabric'. "Time" is a relative relation of one complex portion of ripples as to another. In an expanded reference frame this becomes sets of harmonics and rhythm where space between the resonances and sets of harmonics is "time". This can be compared mathematically and conceptually to notes aligning (expanding - contracting) forming chords and phrases in symphony. visualize a piano string now compress the string in a twisting fashion When the compression removes any and all "space" from all and any pattern or potential for motion there is a remainder of void that has specific relational physics (causality). This relationship is what pi; Euler; etc(expansion / contraction) are from. The string in a "flattened" state represents what we label as "dark matter". There is nothing there but Em-Tension (Gravity) As the pattern re-expands into it's self it becomes the "string" formed in exactly the way it must be to vibrate in harmony (harmonics) with the process of expansion / spin - compression / spin. This conserves angular Frequency (Omega) & P(momentum)& L(angular momentum or potential). The Universe that you "see" and experience is the music (light) that is the effect of the motion (vibration) of the "string". Nothing is really there. The very same harmonics coincides with psychology as others are beginning to stumble into exposing: Penrose-Hameroff consciousness kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnjFmHecaa12frc

[@JMW-ci2pq]

@@purpleprinc3 Consider the Universe as one moment. Just as a particular symphony is played as one musical experience wherein each instrument is playing chords and notes that all align in accordance to rules of harmonics producing a cohesive sound. Each individual note on each individual string or horn or fabric; flute; etc represents a collection of "moments" that form a larger moment. "Time" is both something unique to each and contiguous as the one shared moment. The appearance of "matter" is layered light in just this way. Nothing is actually there but the EM fabric that is being identified as space-time. We observe the effect that is this light rippling through the fabric.

Everyone in the world - 9 billion of us - (if you took away all the space between the atoms) would fit inside a sugar cube. A neutron star is just neutrons, which is why a spoonful of it would weigh 20 billion tonnes - that should tell you how dense it is. But that's JUST a neutron star. The neutrons themselves can be crushed down further to quarks (we think), and EVEN THEN ON to what matter is itself. THIS is why it can be so small.

[@brianpark8758]

Science doesn`t work that way. A theory isn`t just conjecture, it`s backed up by evidence. The idea that, "God did it," may be easier to comprehend but it doesn`t actually explain anything other than, "a supernatural entity we call God did it." Thousands of years of rigorous scientific observations & the scientific method (a form of reasoning: see Karl Popper) & most people are still unable to get their heads around the basics. SMH.

[@willbrooks3490]

@@brianpark8758 Perhaps you have done too much ‘shaking your head’ to think critically. Atheists will strongly object to and even rail against: “You shall have no other gods before me.” Exodus 20: 3 And yet they make a god of science (which in reality is the activity of Man in our struggles to understand the nature of things and how they work and often times getting things totally wrong and sometimes getting there through trial and error) and make bold statements akin to “Science doesn’t work like that and you shall have no other science but our interpretation.” Science ought to be based on hard facts and evidence and NOT on the fantasy stories of Larry Krauss who makes a very nice living out of exploiting the gullible with his sci-fi BS. NOTHING produces NOTHING. It needs SOMETHING to produce SOMETHING. Despite the just-so stories of some ‘scientists’ who insist - flying in the face of the facts - that the Universe has always existed the fact is entirely different. For SOMETHING e.g. the Universe to come into existence there has to be a CAUSE (that’s a science fact) and the CAUSE must be greater than that which the CAUSE CAUSED to come into existence - and that CAUSE must exist outside of Time, Space, and Matter. So, whether you like it or not (liking has nothing to do with it) or believe it or not (your unbelief i.e. you denial doesn’t change the facts) the Universe had a CAUSE and that CAUSE is God who exists outside of Time, Space and Matter but who at certain points in history entered the material realm e.g the Incarnation of Jesus Christ and intervened in the affairs of Man….for our benefit. And He is going to keep His promise to return and put this mad mad mad bad bad world right. Having said that, IF you have HARD FACTS and evidence for how and when and by what mechanism the Universe came into existence - let’s hear it.
