The idea of creating a new universe in the lab is no joke

“In that case, cosmogenesis might actually be a moral obligation.” Really, by whose “morality?”

[a fool in paradise]

Where would you put it?

[bigbob]

Can they make one without democrats?

[Catmom]

How about in your thumbnail, like Larry Kroger in Animal House?

, by whose “morality?”

It does sound a little like “every sperm is sacred.”
And ESIS has many adherents out there.

So what?

Even granting this, how would the universe of the alien that created our universe have come from?

The infinity of God is absolute. These ideas don’t bother me, and my relationship with God, one bit.

Instead of libs moving to Canada, we can just send them to the new universe where they can create their perfect utopia.

At least one scientist thought they’d ignite the atmosphere with the Trinity test. One day, they may conduct an experiment with an untested technology that has greater consequences.

“At least one scientist thought they’d ignite the atmosphere with the Trinity test.”

And yet, they went right ahead with the test. Someday, some experiment is gonna bite mankind in the a$$.

They already did, Welfare + Voting.

I wonder if these physicists deity would-Be’s have thought out the consequences of sparking a new universe? Would everything they see in this universe be sucked down the worm-hole with that monopole? I can see it. Some civilization in the future would have scientist talking about what happened to the planet Earth. They would be saying, “Let those Earth people be a lesson to why we must not play God. They got the ultimate Darwin Award!”

The people that can’t cure the common cold, can’t predict the weather two weeks in advance, do know what happened the first one trillionth of a second in the big bang.

We’ll put a spatially tessalated void inside a vacuum until a word develops intelligent life. Then we can introduce the people to eletricity which they’ll generate for us on a global scale.

I saw it on Rick and morty

Actually, yes it is.

[Cvengr]

Now try creating it without the lab.

PhD in theoretical cosmology

I have a PhD in theoretical cosmetology, and I agree with every point in this article.

If everything they see in this universe was sucked down the worm-hole, how would the future scientists even know that planet earth even existed? In addition, if planet earth went down the hole, wouldn't it have taken the future scientists with it as well?

The people of the new universe would have time travel.
