That higher power or intelligence still had to be there to start it all or organize it If your atheist the question of universe existance is still there too It's a question that does not discriminate. Literally anyone can wonder about this and none of us can really answer it Things should not be able to appear out of nothing. So something always had to exist. If our universe truly did have a beggining a larger father/mother universe that gives birth to universes still had to exist. Something had to always exist since always... And not only is there being no biggining to something hard to conceive... Why it exists like u said is perplexing It's insane to try and even fathom I’m gonna get a headache Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more u think about it the more u realize how weird everything is, and I even get some creepy vibes from it. I watched a video that showed the birth of Earth and what they believe will happen in centuries, that it'll disappear and constantly transform into different forms, until it dies, and everything dies around it, Im not an expert on this topic so I can't really use scientific words but that video ****ed me up, because then u ask urself, what the hell was that for? Who is deciding to do this? But then u realize, why do we constantly think about a WHO or a THING that exists and creates, thinks, etc Aren't we just giving this entity/God or whatever human characteristics because that's all we know? Is it because our brain just doesn't have the capacity to think outside of what we know that we'll never know? That we are limited in our understanding of this world and so far from understanding spirituality and we can't just be outside of our experiences of being a creature/human being created by this universe, so part of it, and part of the transformation and death & cycle of life. Is it on purpose? Is the thing/entity limited us for a reason, so that we will never ever know even if we try so hard? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most galaxies are dwarf galaxies Which of course are still of course incomprehensible in size Just like stars... The majority of stars actually fit the "dwarf category". Our sun is considered a yellow dwarf even tho some 2/3 of stars are actually smaller than our sun "Dwarf" Galaxies or Stars in a way are more like the norm because they exist in greater numbers. But they are very small compared to the largest so I guess that's why they get the name dwarf Our Galaxy is often called a medium sized Galaxy because so many Galaxies far larger than ours exist out there with a much larger portion of mass in the universe Yet in terms of the number there are, most Galaxies are actually smaller than ours Take our Local Group of Galaxies for example. Out of dozens of Galaxies ours is the 2nd largest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why it exists like u said is perplexing It's insane to try and even fathom This makes me so uneasy kinda the same way as the thought of the universe being infinite... like how can something never end? is it even possible and if not and the universe is not infinite then where does it end and what is there after that and then what is there after the ”that” .... so is it after all endless because you can’t really end something without something else ending it...

Yeah the universe not being infinite is almost as complicated of not more so The theory goes that if the Universe is finite, then it likely exists as a closed Universe Basically it's like a sphere. It's finite yet infinite at the same time... Earth is finite in size but u can keep walking indefinitely in a circle because it's enclosed. Eventually u end up back where u began A finite closed Universe would work in the same way but 3 Dimensionally. It appears infinite cuz u keep going but its actually finite in size and a loop in all directions But the density of matter of the Universe (refered to as critical density) would have to be high enough for gravity to warp space time and fabric on itself... Based on the observable Universe, they don't believe we have enough density so, our universe is likely infinite tho they can say for sure This video in detail explains the 3 types of likely universes that exist with very good illustrations. It's a bit long but so worth the whatch tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
