Scientists find first evidence that many universes exist

[silverpig]

Isn't this essentially a repost (though a little more detailed) than your previous thread about this?

That was the other universe.

It's funny how you atheists think that the notion of several universes somehow render God or the creation theory invalid, the Bible never said there were no other universes created, it talks about the creation of our own only.

I'm not exactly an atheist, but I don't think any such thing. God and the creationist nonsense is invalid due to there not being a single shred of evidence to support it. What the physicists and astronomers are doing isn't relevant to that at all ;^)

There has NEVER been evidence to suggest the existence of God and yet people have believed in him for thousands of years, why should that change now?

As of now this theory does not change the fact that something created the universe and until we can prove for a fact what exactly that 'something' was people will continue to believe in God.

Bolded is a logical issue.

Awesome - but will it be useful in my lifetime? I think not.

And as they say, nowhere in the Bible does it say that Jesus was not a velociraptor.

What are you talking about, just the fact that you exist and are a self-aware being proves that God exists, don't be so thick-headed like atheists are.

Orly? Connect the dots for us. Show us the logical proof you have for this statement.

 

[DisgruntledVirus]

a good explanation of the underlying/background is in stephen hawking's "Into the Universe" episode called "The Story about Everything"

a very enjoyable watch but it's 9 parts. it opens with a computer drawing of our universe using supercomputers, talks about how it was formed, the concept of multiple universes, theories of how it will end, etc.

Love that vid. Thanks for the link!

Would love to see some others if anybody has any links to them

The fact that you exist proves that the flying spaghetti monster exists, don't be so thick-headed. Join the Pastafarians!

here's a lecture on the universe, a little drier but still interesting:

Religiotards ruin every good science thread.

 

[timosyy]

This was how the movie Men In Black ends, with aliens playing marbles and each marble was a galaxy.

That would explain the bruising ...

[Crono]

I'm 100% certain I posted in this thread.

But it was probably in another universe. It's hard to keep track when I keep drifting.

 

[dmcowen674]

idea sounds crazy amazing.

if they can prove it, it'll be another blow to religion!

Kommander Kink, i doubt you will be able to grasp this, but read my posts :

This is about self assembly and movement:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-assembly

Self-assembly is a term used to describe processes in which a disordered system of pre-existing components forms an organized structure or pattern as a consequence of specific, local interactions among the components themselves, without external direction. When the constitutive components are molecules, the process is termed molecular self-assembly.

Self-assembly can be classified as either static or dynamic. In static self-assembly, the ordered state forms as a system approaches equilibrium, reducing its free energy. However in dynamic self-assembly, patterns of pre-existing components organized by specific local interactions are not commonly described as "self-assembled" by scientists in the associated disciplines. These structures are better described as "self-organized".

What am I missing? They found some statistically unlikely patterns in the CMB. The part about bumping into other universes is pure conjecture.

Practically everything concerning theories on our universe is pure conjecture. Even the big bang theory is a random guess.

No, your statement sounds more like a random guess. The big bang theory was based upon decades of observations starting with Edwin Hubble in the 1920's. He noticed that everything is moving away from everything else in all directions---like we're all on the surface of a balloon that's being inflated. The deeper back in space you peer, the slower this expansion seems to occur---the expansion is accelerating as time goes on.

We have very sensitive light and radiation collecting equipment, and are now able to directly see images as far back as 13.2 BILLION years in the past. We're able to see how galaxies haven't formed quite the way they are now and how things aren't spread out as much. We're able to build on this data through models and simulations, and have come up with a model of the big bang that explains these formations perfectly. It's like having a jigsaw puzzle with a missing piece---if you put the rest of the puzzle together, you can perfectly see the shape of the missing piece. This is how astronomers work.

Idiotic statements like that rub me the wrong way. It's an ignorant assumption that is completely untrue.
