this kinda stuff will drive you mad if you think about it too much. Try work this one out

How can we exisit? The universe, atoms, the first particle have to have come from somwhere... but something can't just exist it must have been created. How was the first thing in existance created from nothing?


this just introduces a vicious regress, because something would have to create the universe, but what created the universe would have to be created by something else, and so on

i had this idea just pop into my head and it manifested itself into a great theory in my opinion... anywhere here goes

so you know the basic model of the atom? its got the nucleus with the electrons and protons etc etc. the center with things orbiting around it.

and also, you know the basic model of a galaxy (for example, the milky way) i think its very odd that the model of the atom looks so much like the model of a galaxy.. coincidence? maybe maybe not.

it made me think that what if in actual reality, we are really scaled no bigger than an atom just sitting on the tip of our finger.

its possible that our 'universe' is just the empty space of an atom

idk i have some pretty radical ideas, if you think about it imo this is all very possible.


imo, we are not in the free space of the atom but we are actually the atom. our solar system is an atom our galaxy is an atom and our universe is an atom even the multiverse imo is the molecular make up of something even bigger. is this bigger mass "God"? this is one of my favorite things to ponder

Actually, according to basic physics, it can't be created, and must have just always existed.

thats only physics as we know it... we can only observe so much of our tiny speck in this universe, let alone in the case of a multiverse.

laws and facts maybe different in another universe

Just like the different elements/substances have different physics? :unsure:

quantuim mechanics is very different from the physics that describes large objects. the particles don't simply rotate in the atom. LRN PHYSICS

Lol this post made me realize something very random...

U know if u have ever read the Divine Comedy


SPOILER**** I never really understood what he meant when he described hell being ruled by a certain number of different laws. Then i thought about the cell for example and different kinds of living entities how it is the same for them and us, we are all tied to specific laws that rule our existence.
