Recently a heated debate occurred in a rather intellectual think tank. The debate centered around the Cosmos and its size. It went round and round for a while and many think tankers had no problem with the idea that the Cosmos is Infinite with no beginning and with no end.
One of the protagonists of the group stated matter of factly that: The cosmos is infinite. It has no beginning or end. It is not time. It is beyond time. Yes it contracts and expands because it is alive just like a human being.
One should not have a problem with this statement, the idea or concept of the Cosmos being infinite has been tossed around in intellectual circles for as long as humans could reason and discuss such things. Contracting and expanding is not a difficult concept either; Jelly Fish do that, so that is a pretty easy to understand concept. Indeed, such theory has been discussed here on this think tank forum.
Yet one has to ask the question of the contradiction here. If the Cosmos expands and contracts, how can it do that if it is everywhere infinitely already? Ah ha. So is the protagonist indicating it is only one of such never ending systems in a greater expanded system and so on? And if so, why would this be so hard to understand? If not, then there is a major error in his thinking and he will have to go back and rethink his comment. What do you think? Think on this in 2006.
