I think that infinity is in the two ways, small and big, so like alan wats say we are the universe. An interesting thing is that with the particle accelerators, physicists are banging particles like electrons together so they create mini big bang every day!! these guys are gods! and maybe our iniverse was created the same way...

Theres a difference between a cognitive reaction and a conscious experience (qualia). If I put a lobster into a pot and it waved its arms in the air, how would I know if that's not a survival mechanism simply happening, or if the lobster is genuinely in pain? How do we know pain sensors can be completely 100% identical to consciousness? How do you know I feel pain? What if I'm just a zombie that acts conscious but there's no actual inner perspective feeling anything?

If we haven't been visited by people from the future yet, does that mean that time travel will never be invented?

[@-Vitalis-]

Not being visited yet by a person from the future, doesn't mean time travel hasn't been invented. How can you prove that actually we have been visited... or not? Same goes with aliens: if we still don't have enough (scientific) evidence, that doesn't mean other intelligences don't exist. It'll sound like a damn cheap slogan, but... everything is possible until proven wrong.

[@Rheinwald]

Time travel was invented, it's just that when they traveled back in time they accidentally made the Big Bang. Think about it... there could have been a whole nother timeline before ours, before some time-traveling idiots could have caused the Big Bang

Vincent Tolisano time travel will be possible in the future, but only traveling one way even further into the future. For example, in 2050 it wil probarly be possible to step in your time machine, stay inside for six months and step out in 2065. Awesome stuff.

[@cinemartin3530]

This video raises quite interesting questions, and it was very interesting to listen. Personally, I tend to believe that life on other planets, as well as other dimensions, most likely exists. This seems much more plausible than if they did not exist, given the scale of the universe and the behavior of the quantum world. I am sure in a few hundred years humanity will get answers to these questions and it is wonderful, I am very glad that I will find such a time, perhaps the most interesting time for highness that has ever been before !

Answers are born from question, answer is a thing that without question doesn't exist or simply it isn't a question, like there can't be shadows of there isn't light, because shadows are absence of light, but if light doesn't exist, everything is shadow or shadow doesn't exist, both are valid. This means that if there is answer but not question, every thing is the question or the question doesn't exist. Like if the answer is 80, every combinations of numbers are the questions (60+20, 40×2, etc...) or the question just doesn't exist, it is just a sentence.

Also, WHY would one be so worried about wanting to contact these beings. The only thing up there is God and his angels and I'm fairly sure they'll communicate when and how they see fit. All this other rubbish is just that. They can stare out at space all they want they're never going to be able to see or know when this imminent return is going to happen. That's what they want and they can never have it. This place isn't nearly ready to progress into their next phase in the universe.

Why is 11 called "eleven" and not "onety-one"?

Ainlif is composed of ain meaning one and the suffix lif (lifted straigth from the German root lib) meaning "to adhere/remain/remain left over".So, Eleven means literally "one left"(ie one past ten).Hence Eleven.

The fact that we are lost in billions of stars, galaxies, even universes might seem terrifying. But imagine if there was only the Sun, the Earth and the moon in space...and nothing else. THAT would be terrifying.

I agree with this, it would most certainly mean a program or simulation, or a very unimaginative religious god.

No,it wouldn't be terrifying, because we would know no different, so why would we fear ?

@@KhoiruunisaRF but our imaginations would still people the space outside our solar system with others, gods and goddesses, angels and demons, we would simply create a different landscape for them to live in. Most ancient cultures based their beliefs not on being's in the heavens ,but in the sea,on top of mountains,under their feet, in trees etc. They looked on the stars as simply pretty lights in the sky. I think it feels far more lonely looking up,and knowing that there is all that 'space',and knowing l will ,almost certainly, never find out if there is even the smallest scrap of life (other than viruses!)out there 💔 but that may just be me ?

[@mcmneverreadsreplys7318]

Technically, if consuming anything that once was part of the material body of a human being, the answer is YES. The same would hold true of eating anything grown 'downstream' from a human grave. However I think once the body breaks down into its varied chemical parts they are no longer part of a 'collective' human and thus consuming them would not be cannibalism. So it depends on how you understand the form of the word 'Human".
