Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

What's beyond the edge of the known universe?

What contains all of it? If it is expanding, then it has to be expanding into something, but what? Is it just empty space? Can space be completely empty? What's beyond that then...A forever expanding and contracting universe. Who knows how many times we’ve lived these lives. Probably never, as we know in this universe that on a quantum level events are probabilistic. Even in a shrinking and expanding universe, it's infinitely unlikely all the same probabilities play out.

Unless quantum physics is entirely wrong, which is very possible!

    There's only one thing the Throbber is even remotely concerned about shrinking and expanding....

    And it's not the universe.

    You must be a grower and not a shower.

    The first thing to establish before proceeding is that space isn't nothing, because it allows something to exist inside it. Every real estate agent is hip to this. If you don't understand that I won't even fucking talk to you.

    Time and space are human constructs. There is neither

    No beginning no end no boundaries no limits no nothing

    God figured all this out when he created it. Go ask.

    Applying gender specific pronouns to God. Wow. Just wow.
    God is a dude. We know this because women have to sit to pee.

    Yeah, but women can have multiple orgasms.
    That's because they have to put up with men. They also have to give birth a trade I'm happy with.

    Watching Sledog and SFJ argue about God's gender is what makes HH horrific and awesome all at the same time.

    Giving birth sounds exhilarating.

    So you're saying 1 day in the Book of Genesis is not 24 hours then?

    a day to the Lord can be a thousand years to man

    Genesis says the known world was formed out of the unknown

    Not bad for bronze age story tellers

    Not bad guesses based on the knowledge available to them at the time. They got some of the order wrong - e.g., plants before light - but did figure out that the animals came before us monkeys.

    3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day....

    11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
