18. The question should be: what is causing the ripples?
Edited on Mon Jul-24-06 09:53 PM by Jeroen
You cannot answer that question and I cannot tell you what the ripples are.

We both don't know where this Universe comes from (beyond the Big Bang)
This Universe could be a beautiful, but meaningless accident, it could be a beautiful design.
I find the idea of 'a beautiful design' no more insane that the idea of 'a beautiful accident'.

There is no point in proving the existence of God. I agree on that.
But there is also no point in proving the non-existence of God.

I guess we are trapped in a boolean mindset - 'to be or not to be'.
What is we are both wrong? What if 'to be' and 'not to be' are just two variations of n-possibilities?
Once we believed that the earth was flat. We should keep that in mind.



On edit: I am Dutch, makes it hard sometimes to formulate my thoughts in English.
