Quantum mechanics has properties where things happen out of chance. Nothing non out chance, can create something thas out of chance properties, which means that out of chance has existed forever, since it cannot have any creater with non out of chance properties.

So if "out of chance" was the first thing that ever existed and that everything therefore must stem from it. We could surely imagine that a lot of things would exist if out of chance was the only thing that existed in the beginning.

So out chance, for instance create a particle. And a particle require spacetime, so when a particle is created a new spacetime is created.

Someone's been skimreading the back pages of New Scientist, I see.

This new opus comes from the creator of such gems as "Improve you EQ" and "Is life boring without a wii?"

isnt the analogy correct? Someone that dissaprove of it? I mean, nothing without happenstance, can crrate happenstance, so happenstance has existed for ever. So if the only thing that exist is happenstance, when lots of things will surely exist given time.

THe argument would be that both happenstance and things without happenstance has existed forever. The argument against that is that the thing without happenstance, has a value. A value has to be given by a creator(which it doesnt since it has existed for ever in this example) or by happenstance...

Keep it on tumblr, guy.

The thing is, chief, is that anything outside the universe is a complete unknown, and will probably remain so to our comprehension. Trying to understand what "the universe" was before the Big Bang is akin to trying to describe the colour blue to a blind person. Which renders trying to apply our understanding of physics to it, along with the ideas of "the first thing to exist" and "the beginning" utterly moot.

This thread caused me to vigorously grate cheese - so much so that I cracked my grater.

Deleted user 27 May 2014 03:17:42

The happenstance of that happening must have existed forever. Your cheesegrater was already cracked by happenstance. It just didn't know it yet. Wheels within happenstance wheels. Happenstance happenstance happenstance jessop.

If you're a fan of Terry Pratchett and science then I heartily recommend the Science of Discworld books. They blew my mind wide open.

The thing is, what decides what kind of thing pops into existence?
