ONCE AGAIN, what this one has concluded here is absolutely False, Wrong, Inaccurate, and Incorrect.Will Bouwman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:23 pmWell, the visible universe is all the stuff we can see. Because we can't see what we can't see, we have no way of telling what is there. But whatever it is, you think you have proof it is infinite.Age wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 12:44 pmWhat an ABSOLUTE Incorrect understanding.Will Bouwman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 11:24 am Perhaps I am stupid, but as I understand, your argument is that
The visible universe is located somewhere in infinite space.
The universe is everything that exists.
Therefore the universe is infinite.
Just out of CURIOSITY, what, exactly, led you to te first premise, as the one you presented here?
Also, I MUST OF not made my question to you here, for clarity, NOT CLEAR ENOUGH. What, exactly, led you to the first premise, as the one you presented, to be a part of 'my argument'?
you said that as 'you understood' 'my argument' 'that premise' was part of 'my argument'.
Just so it becomes ABSOLUTELY CLEAR, 'that premise', which 'you presented', is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that I have ever said nor written ABSOLUTELY ANYWHERE.
There is also the other, which you appear to have not looked into, nor maybe have ever even considered.Will Bouwman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:23 pm Now, it is possible that beyond the visible universe, there is an infinity of empty space;
Again, this is why guesses, assumptions, and hypothesis are best never even made up and considered. Once more, why not just look at what actually exists, and thus is just actually True, instead, and only?Will Bouwman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:23 pm there is however an issue with any hypothesis that the universe is infinite and is filled with an infinite number of stars.
Oh, this very 'old' one. I have already commented on this one but I will now again.Will Bouwman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:23 pm If it is also infinite in age, then every line of sight will end at a star and given an infinity of time, the light from that star will have reached Earth, and the night sky should be as light as day.
1. If light diminishes over distance, then there would be spits of darkness, where the 'night sky' should not be and would not be as light as day.
2. If there are black holes, from which light can not and does not escape, then there would be areas of darkness, where the 'night sky' should not be and would not be as light as day.
Now,
1. Does light diminish over distance?
2. Are there black holes?
So either the universe is not full of infinitely many stars, it isn't infinitely old, or we have to make up some other hypothesis like 'tired light'. [/quote]
Or, the Universe is just different from what you have been believing, or still are 'currently' believing, is true.
Now, by the look of your conclusion here, you, still, have some more to consider. I have, also, have not even gone into the so-called 'big bang' and how 'they' work in, exactly, with the One and ONLY infinite and eternal Universe.
LOLWill Bouwman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:23 pm Another possibility is that beyond the visible universe, space is expanding faster than the speed of light, so light from the infinity of stars will never reach us, but that means expanding space, which is precisely what you are arguing against.
LOL
LOL
you, REALLY ARE, so far Wrong, DELUDED, and DISTORTED here.
you, STILL, have NO actual.idea and clause as to what I have been saying, claiming, and pointing out, here.
I will, AGAIN, that you human beings seek out and obtain ACTUAL CLARIFICATION and CLARITY before you even START to make False and Wrong conclusions, like this one has been continually making here.
Again, I will suggest you FIND OUT what I am saying and ACTUALLY MEANING, BEFORE, you even begin to 'try to' counter or argue against 'my words'.
Just so you become aware a 'paradox', itself, is, literally, 'a paradox' of itself. The word 'paradox' has two completely opposing definitions, (just like other words do, like the 'argue' word, for example), so which definition of the 'paradox' word is being used, exactly, in that one very 'outdated' 'wiki' interpretation?Will Bouwman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:23 pm For more on this, check out wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olbers%27s_paradox
