Well surely that implies that they double their mass. Where does this matter come from?

The atoms multiply by two each day.

Seriousy, I was just joking. :P

They're worse than rabbits.

All good theories...but for me the 'meaning of life' is to have fun 'cause you never know how long you've got left.

What a sad perspective.

It's better than right before you fall asleep thinking 'I might not wake up tomorrow.' Russian-Roulette style.

I used to think that. I would lie in bed getting sleepy and I'd think "what if I don't wake up?" Actually, that's made me think of another question. You know how people use the term waking up dead, well...um...how can you wake up dead?

Your worrying for no reason, you'd never know you died to begin with so you technically have nothing to worry about anyway.

The universe is massive. Nobody knows whether it is finite or infinite and I daresay no one will. We have only explored a tiny bit of our galaxy so who knows what could be out there? There could be other galaxies far far away with their own sets of planets, moons, stars, etc. There could be planets full of life like earth is. There could be a girl in a galaxy far far away, on a planet like this, wondering about the universe, wondering about galaxies that are far far away. It's great to think about things like this, isn't it?

Most galaxies have planets tons of solar systems with planets, but there all pretty much just like the other eight planes in our solar syste. Yes it's intruiging to think of other planets and beings...but sorry to say that we humans will probably never see muchof the universe. We'll destrpy ourselves way before technology is invented to travel across the universe at reasonable speeds, and what if technology can even reach that height, technology can only reach such heights. It can't advance to near god like points of ability, that just doesn't make sense. The only way travelling the universe is plausible is a wormhole, if they exist. It's mathmatically plausible but whether it's actually real or if its possible to create one is still unknown, and I've gone waaay off subject haven't I.

If the universe was static and infinite in every direction, every line of sight would end in a star, which would make the night sky as bright as the sun. So no, the universe is not infinite.

No. 42 is the answer to the Ultimate Question. A question which was never known.
Duh.

Only thing I haven't made a huge mistake about yet is Harry Potter. I bet you that's next.

I don't care if it's sad, if it makes me happy then I don't see a problem with it.

And I'm not gonna even bother defending myself further. If -you- have a problem with my perspective on life, PM me.

These are my opinions, not facts:
1) Space is infinite. There is nothing outside of space. If you keep travelling in the same direction as space, you'll end up at your starting point. Hence it's pointless to do so.
2) Nothing changes in your present time. The times were of different dimensions. What happens in one dimension won't alter the other.

Enough for my blabbering, shoot me :D

PS: What was the problem with this forum and the site? This forum was down for months... o_O

If you end up in the same point you started, space is not infinite. (Alternative nitpick: if you're traveling in the same direction as space at the same speed as space, you aren't moving relative to space and will always stay in the same point (relative to space) if no forces act on you. If the speeds are different (you are moving relative to space), go back to the main sentence.)

Now, if you could go in the same direction "forever" and not end up at the same point, it just might be infinite (or simply incredibly big).
