    And infinite series of events had to happen before this one, so this moment in time would never be reached. In Penrose's CCC, there's a point where time flips or something and you go from "infinite future" to "finite past." Ok, so there's this cycle where you go from big bang to dark, cold, empty universe with no matter, and from that state another big bang happens. Something like that. But the cycle itself end/starts from a state where there is flat space filled with massless particles and quantum fields. Where did that come from in the first place?

    If time is linear, which it needn't be, then picking any arbitrary point on the timeline as the present means there is an impossible amount of time that must pass before reaching the present.

    >>17071874
    >picking any arbitrary point on the timeline as the present means there is an impossible amount of time that must pass before reaching the present.
    This is only a problem if the present causally depends on everything that happened before, which isn't the case if you have these periodic hard resets. A logical timeline that extends infinitely in both directions is perfectly conceivable.

    In this scenario time is cyclical. Any point in time would be like a point on a circle. Ok, but where did the circle come from?

    Doesn't even have to be cyclical proper. If quantum randomness is an actual feature of reality, each iteration can play out differently.

    >where did the circle come from?
    I don't know. Why does it need to come from anywhere? It's not even clear at this point that "where did X come from" is always a valid question in physics, let alone metaphysics.

    The "timeless" part of the CCC still has a flat space and quantum fields. Did those "always exist"? Yeah, "time has no meaning" in that state, but you should still be able to say that there was a past that looks like an expanding universe with an arrow of time happened. Otherwise how did that "timeless" state come about? I think these are valid questions.
    >>

    I'm not arguing in favor of CCC in particular, but you're making assertions like:
    >"Always existed" and "infinite past" make no sense.

    I think speculating about this stuff is as reasonable as the greek philosophers speculating on the nature of matter, nice thinking exercise but it won't bring as much closer to truth, and if we landed at it by accident, we wouldn't know how to verify it. t=0 should be thought as nothing more than "the point at which and prior to which we have no idea what happened or even if 'prior' or 'happened' has any meaning". That's all there is to it, we have no tools to touch it.

    >As discussed in Physical Quantities and Units, the most fundamental physical quantities are defined by how they are measured. This is the case with time. Every measurement of time involves measuring a change in some physical quantity. It may be a number on a digital clock, a heartbeat, or the position of the Sun in the sky. In physics, the definition of time is simple—time is change, or the interval over which change occurs. It is impossible to know that time has passed unless something changes.

    This is incorrect. you are thinking time is necessary for change as you are thinking about things in terms of our 3 dimensional space and matter and thus to travel from one state to another requires time, but for the fabric of reality perhaps that isn't necessary. Perhaps when you minimize time to 0, quantum (or some lower bound we don't understand) events happen spontaneously instead of over "time". Perhaps in a higher dimension these quantum and field effects simultaneously occur to form a singularity of sorts ejecting and creating matter and energy into our 3 dimensional universe which creates time as a function of it's own fabric along with the universe itself.

    All the time dimension thing is mathematical tomfoolery, there's no proof of such "dimension", we simply call time the measure of change in physics.
    Has its own units:
    https://www.nist.gov/pml/owm/si-units-time

    Anything apart from calling time the measure of change is pure speculation. Might as well call it God's gift or whatever, means about as much as anything else, other than it being a measure of change, and we're using it as such.
    If you can prove time is "something" else, do show yourr work. Else throw you ideas in the same bin as the other coocoo ones.

    That' the best we have in physics anon, we call time the measure of change and have a unit for it. That's it. Anything else is pure brainrot. And philosophy (which coincidentally is brainrot most of the times)
    Not sure what you are asking for... There is nothing else as far as science is concerned, there's theories about it but no proofs for anything. As it stands...we really do call time the measure of change, and have units for it, and that's about it anon.

    'how does something come out of nothing'

    first you have to prove that every single natural phenomenon has had a beginning, which is beyond current scientific capabilities, how does God just appear out of nothing? that is called begging the question. You are asking for an exception to your non natural entity (supernatural entities have never been proven to exist) without even proving God exists.

    The idea of a man in the sky or elsewhere designing everything that exists is cartoonish and mythological.

    Deism makes a bit more sense, if you add natural selection and evolution instead of creationism though.

    Even if God is necessarily real, how do you make the jump from that to ''my religion is true and it is the one true religion and all the other Gods are fake'' you cant.

    >>17077840
    Several of your objections misunderstand classical theism. The argument isn't that everything must have a cause except God, but that contingent things require an explanation(read more on why the universe is considered contigent), with God proposed as a necessary being that never began to exist. You can challenge whether such a being exists or whether the universe itself could be the ultimate explanation, but asking who created God doesn't address the actual argument. We also routinely infer things we cannot directly observe, and some of our most basic assumptions about consciousness, induction, other minds, and the foundations of reality remain philosophically debated. The fact that God hasn't been scientifically proven doesn't automatically make belief in God irrational; the question is whether there are good reasons to believe and whether those reasons withstand scrutiny. Nor does evolution contradict theism, since many Christians accept evolution while believing God sustains the natural order. Calling God a man in the sky also doesn't engage with classical theism, which doesn't conceive of God as a physical creature somewhere in the universe. You can read Aquinas, Leibniz or Platinga's works for actual proper theistic arguments that are not caricatures.

    Pointing out that something isn't conclusively proven isn't the same as demonstrating that it's false. Much of your own worldview would crumble at such a strict philosophical standard.

    But why is absolute nothingness impossible? Saying that “nothing existing” is an oxymoron seems to confuse the absence of anything with nothingness being a thing that exists. You could argue that something must exist necessarily, but that’s a metaphysical claim that needs an argument, not something established by the definition of “nothing.” And even if you establish that something must exist, you still haven’t explained what that something is.

    You can run a definition against existence where reality has such as such necessary property or attribute. For instance, change is a universal condition of the universe. Nothing has no parts and cant change. Ergo its not a member of the universe.
    That doesnt eliminate its possibility in some other sense though. Change is also unchanging and not part of the universe in the same sense.

    >Anonymous 10/20/26(Tue)20:13:17No.17078
    I think I can agree that nothingness wouldn't be part of a universe characterized by change, but that doesn't establish that absolute nothingness is impossible. If nothing means the complete absence of anything, it wouldn't be a member of the universe in the first place. You're showing that nothingness wouldn't have the properties of our universe, not that it couldn't be the case that nothing exists. And saying change is both changing and unchanging seems contradictory unless you're using those terms in different senses...
    >>
    >>17078474
    The universe of change is a different realm from that of unchanging beings. You could raise a contradiction if a universe encompasses particulars, universals, and types. Change is one of the goto specifically because the paradox demands a resolution. A similar instruction is performed with causality and a prime mover.

    Interesting history about God being "outside of space and time."
    Before the Copernican revolution Christians thought God was literally in the sky, in the outermost celestial sphere. The birth of modern astronomy destroyed this model with facts and logic.

    The theologians, greatly embarrassed, decided to permanently hide their God forever by positing that he is "outside of space and time." When one questions what this means, they mere say "it's incomprehensible to us."

    Georges Lemaître had the idea that the universe was once one big atom that decayed into smaller atoms, which again decayed, and so on until it reached what we see today. Ok, he was wrong about the gradual decay part, but I don't think he was wrong about the Primeval Atom part.

    Let's suppose that the center of a black hole is not occupied by a singularity, but by a large ball of neutronium frozen in time, basically a huge atomic nucleus. What if it gets too big for the black hole to hold it? It ate so much that it ripped open a whole new spacetime. It tunneled into a new universe. It did this through a single point so that it looked like a singularity blowing up. Yeah, it had so much energy and pressure built up that it "decayed" into a brazillian degree plasma instead of two daughter atoms, but the general idea of a "primeval atom" still holds.

    So, there once was a black hole that swallowed a universe worth of shit. It collapsed a whole universe into itself to where all space and time ceased to exist for a bit. But it wasn't stable forever and some small part of it tunneled into a second quantum state. This created a little bit of spacetime, which started a chain reaction. BANG

    >events happen spontaneously instead of over "time"
    This makes no sense. For change to occur, time has to exist. Time is the ability of things to change. No time, no change.
    >time is emergent
    No, time allows emergence. No time, no emergence, even of time.
    >block universe
    Time is still the basis for change here.
    >>
    >>17078976

    you can never cross the event horizon of a black hole, because it shrinks under you as you fall towards it, because times goes all crazy.

    https://youtu.be/kRIDi-no1BI

    I mean from your perspective. which wouldn't last long anyway due to seriously weirdly high levels of radiation, and you'll eventually get ripped to atoms due to tidal forces when the hole is small enough

    In the beginning the Pi quantity of the point particles, smallest foundational, fundamental Planck bottom layer magnetized +Red+Green+Blue+ / -red-green-blue- sided cubes were all attached together as a single piece, a singularity on an Aether grid track matrix.
    Color and magnetism being the two forces that exist.

    The Aether square track provides our first and cardinal directions of movement upon the grid of Forward/Backwards, Left/Right, Up/Down.
    The Planck bottom layer grid track matrix Aether slop also separates and divides the infinity, provides a foundational layer to build from, maintains precise alignment and gives us a measurement starting of 1 size scale ratio for a cube/all cubes, 1 distance for a cube movement/all cubes movement, as all cubes move 1 Aether grid track distance, 1 movement time, all simultaneously in the universe at the same .....time....errr...Planck track cube appearance moment....giving us the wave function collapse......

    Inside of the Fine Structure Constant (coupling constant) you will find the plans for a type of spinning machine I believe.
    A singularity separator of some type.
    If we look at the pre big bang state of the universe as the cubes connected together as a solid single part, a singularity piece, one giant black hole essentially, we can imagine the big bang event (hyperinflation energy insertion) itself being an impact causing separation, or an explosion from inside causing separation, or a bounce back from a previous state universe collapse causing separation.

    But the plans and designs inside of the FSC indicate some type of spinning device.
    A stirrer.
    Something to blender milkshake the singularity and cause the big bang.
    This is why atoms attempt to rotate/orbit, why planets and stars rotate, why galaxies rotate, why the toilet bowl flush has a handedness, and possibly local groups but the size and time scale is hard to look up to and see.
    It was either seeded inside, manufactured inside, drilled in and spun
