Testing the Totality of the Universe

[Eodnhoj7]

"All that exists" necessitates "all" as contrasting to Nothingness, yet there is no Nothingness as only being exists. Nothing is a statement of relation between parts where Nothingness is the absence of one thing relative to another. An empty cup for example observes the absence of that which fills the cup leaving only the cup. Thus "all" in contrast to Nothingness is "all" in contrast to some other being which exists as distinct with this distinction being the point of change from one phenomenon into another. "All" is the point of distinction between one set of being, as distinct, and another set of being, as distinct. "All" effectively leads to some other being as all is a point of change from one set of being to another thus leaving multiple "alls".

Testing for the totality of the universe is impossible given the test must be applied to what is real, yet this reality of the test must first be established. The test must be real to test what is real, but what is real is only real if tested. A regressive spiral occurs where the test must be real but what is real must be tested. The test must test itself thus always leading to a test of what is real existing beyond what can be tested. In simpler terms the test is assumed as real, but in itself cannot be test thus cannot be real.


The ability to test, as defining what is real, is falsifiable given the test is a mimicking of natural variables. In mimicking one set of variables a series of variables are left out given the mimicking is an approximation of the natural set of variables. There is no true test which contains all variables thus testing is nothing other than a recursion of natural variables being repeated in a new light thus causing a fundamental difference between what is being tested and the test in itself. The test is a variation of what is being tested and as a variation is distinct thus different from what is being tested. In testing a phenomenon what is being observed is the test and not the natural environment in itself.

Do you mind me asking why you bothered writing this, Eodnhoj7?

It addresses the nature of testing and how the act of testing itself is falsifiable thus self negating.

There doesn't seem much point in testing, then.
