Science has a way of claiming to have all the answers of history, and yet it has not satisfactorily defined time itself.

If there have been Big Bangs over and over again, then does that mean that John Kerry could have run for President an infinite number of times before? And that future versions of ourselves might have to suffer the same indignity for eternity? AAAGH!!!

When they can explain how matter created itself, I will listen. Until then, they are whistling in the dark.

They are correct, the big bang has little (nothing) to do with the making of our universe. I love reading how scientists go back and forth proving each other's theory wrong and trying very hard not to mention the "C" word. Almost laughable. BEsides, if this theory was correct, there would be a lot more "life" as a result of the numerous Big Bangs and billions of years to for that life to "evolve". Such nonsense to even think that we came from a speck of dust. By the way, where did the speck of dust come from?

I'm pretty sure that time moves in direct proportion to the speed Jerrold Nadler eats.

Oh, dear.

You can always increase the entropy more by creating a new universe

I have to wonder, to Whom is Dr. Carroll referring when he says, "You can always ... create a new universe ..."?

I'll bet anything that time has no direction at the sub atomic level.

It's the Triangles. "0" "1" "-1". The equation is called choice, or fate, depending on the perspective.

Like they just found out? Seriesly?

It flows west (or east?). That's we have to back off our watch when we go to Calivornia. Lucky us, we can wear only one watch.
