The first result for "boundless but finite" in Google returns a Torus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torus

So we are still in the land of topology. You'll be happy to know that a Torus can be described with only TWO constants!
The radius of the tube and the radius of the ring. Sooooo - you can measure the arc ?![]()
I don't have a hypothesis about the universe. I am happy with "I don't know".I am trying to get you to explain your idea in meaningful language.
You have an infinite regress hypothesis about the universe. That sounds like "God" on the other hand.TimeSeeker wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 9:41 pmI don't have a hypothesis about the universe. I am happy with "I don't know".I am trying to get you to explain your idea in meaningful language.
It's not a circle.
Or a kleinbottle.
Or a torus.
Or any shape you can express in mathematics...
What does it look like in your head? Draw us a picture.
So far all I am hearing is "God"![]()

I just told you that I have NO hypothesis. That's not infinite regress - that's intellectual honesty. I don't know.

Yeah that's your hypothesis. That something with no cause is like God. And your reasoning behind this?TimeSeeker wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 9:48 pmI just told you that I have NO hypothesis. That's not infinite regress - that's intellectual honesty. I don't know.
You claim that the universe is an N-dimensional "boundless and finite" object. That has apparently always existed and will always exist.
So. It has no cause. Like God.
Because you've conceptualised the universe as a thing without a cause.
Not necessarily if their is one universe both composed of and composed of infinite further universe as 1 absolute universe. This would equate to "the All" as a definition of God (reflected in Hermetic/Egyptian philosophy), and the multidimensional nature of consciousman under "I AM" (reflected in Judaic/Christian/Muslim and Hindu scripture (loosely)).Belinda wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 9:45 pmThat would be the pantheists' God.TimeSeeker wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 9:41 pmI don't have a hypothesis about the universe.

What the fuck does that have to do with pantheism or God.TimeSeeker wrote: ↑Thu Nov 08, 2018 9:52 pmDo you even understand why Belinda said that though?
You assert that the universe has existed always and forever. It is an uncaused cause.
Like God.
