If you could witness, in person, any historic event what would it be

[LordKOTL]

The entirely theory is flawed with one question. How did that cycle start?

It didn't need to "start". Much like asking the same question about God (If God created everything, what created God?), the answer could simply be, "It always was, is, and will be." If we can conclude that matter and energy can never be truly destroyed--they can only change form (i.e. matter to energy, energy to matter, one type of matter to another and one type of energy to another), it's possible that all the big bang was, was merely a "changestate". Whatever "stuff" was before it became the matter and energy we all knew.



Just a postulation, yes, but I can see, in theory, how everything ould just be an infinite cycle that has always been going and always will go.

I was in DC too, sitting on my couch, watching it on my 50" HDTV, with a few cold brews in me.

Well thanks for inviting me! I was in Vienna, I could have been to your place in 15 minutes!!!!!



So, I would have liked to be at Chief's house watching the Cup winning goal with him.



Actually, I would have liked to have been at the first regulated 'league' hockey game in Canada about 100 years ago. Or, I would have liked to be a Jesus of Nazareth's birth to see how it really went down, sans the fanciful story or a barn, and fatherless pregnancy, and star twinkling for him, and three kings traveling from afar to bring him stuff.

It's funny though that you used the same terminology to explain scientific belief in an unprovable theory as religion does for many of it's reasons. Thinks like why is there disease and (from walking dead) if you have to be good and believe in god to go to heaven what about the mayans who are good, why should they go to hell just because they had no concept of what god is.... (From you above) "These are questions that our mind can't comprehend." hahaha, but yeah, I digress back on topic... I was just throwing the big bang out there, what I really meant was "the beginning of whatever it is that started it all" I just used the big bang theory because that seems to be what most people recognize.

It is the same thing I don't deny that, There is no explanation for the "cause" of a big bang. I don't claim it to be fact. I just know that it makes no sense, to invent a deity that kicked it off to make it make sense, because then you have to explain that. I just don't think humans can comprehend the beginning or lack thereof of "time" and the universe. Thats why its so easy to insert and unquestionable god figure, that we make rules for that defy our knowledge of nature.

the birth of myself.

the birth of myself.

You were already there.....

 

[the canadian dream]

You were already there.....

I never witnessed it though. All I saw was some weird shit on my way out as far as I can remember.



Come to think about it I just threw up in my mouth with the thought of watching myself being born. I take that choice back and choose............hearing the first fart.

 

[JOVE23]

what caused the big bang

the big foreplay, if you do it right.

Brilliance.

yeah i have no retort for that. Jove has just solved the greatest mysteries of the universe.

Lake Placid @ the USA vs USSR 1980 Miracle game.



Just the tension and the entire political background to the game, plus the come from behind win to beat the hockey power house would have probably been an incredible feeling.

 

[MassHavoc]

Forget the beginning of the universe, I'd rather be there to see the beginning of humanity.

Good call, I'll go with that, then I could establish myself as the one true god.

 

[Bringmepie]

Good call, I'll go with that, then I could establish myself as the one true god.

I could then witness the first deicide as the first humans bash 'Havoc's skull in with a rock.



What? It's not like I'd actually hand them the rock...
