Aki Posted October 22, 2004 Report Posted October 22, 2004 I was just thinking about how could we get out of a closed loop, if we are in one, or if it is even possible. Just wondering if travelling to an extra-dimension would do any good.
wepe Posted October 24, 2004 Report Posted October 24, 2004 are you saying that the universe will continue forever? like in a circular process. i want to make full sense of what your saying before i give my reasoning.
Aki Posted October 24, 2004 Author Report Posted October 24, 2004 well what I mean is living in a circle, where things are going to happen again and again, just like a closed loop.
Bo Posted October 25, 2004 Report Posted October 25, 2004 picture e.g. a circle drawn on a sheet of paper and put your finger somewhere on the circle. As long as you are confined on the circle, you can't leave it; never. however; movement on a circle is 1 dimensional, and the sheet of paper is 2D. So we -being able to see 3 (spacial) dimensions- can move our finger to the left or right; and thus get off the circle. So: getting out of a closed loop requires an extra dimension; Bo
Aki Posted October 26, 2004 Author Report Posted October 26, 2004 thanks Bo for replying. That was exactly what I thought
