DEEP THOUGHTS

What's the speed of dark? We have a speed of light. And for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Therefore, there MUST be a speed of dark.

I also am convinced there is an edge to our universe. If it is continuously expanding, then it must be expanding into SOMETHING (emptiness). Therefore, the area it expands into meets the expanding universe, thus creating an edge that is continuously moving.

What are your deep thoughts?

Deep. Far too deep for me. I'll be lurking.

Actually "dark" is just the absence of light. So no speed. Since dark is well, nothing.

Why are you convinced there's an edge to the universe? Scientists have proven that what appears to be a solid object is actually made up of mostly space. So there's the appearance of solidity, not necessarily the actuality of it. A trick of the light. Material reality is relative, much like a lap only exists when one is sitting down.

You wanna go deep? Ask yourself, Who Am I?

(And if an answer comes, it's wrong).

The speed of dark is exactly the same as the speed of light. Dark disappears as quickly as light appears.

If it's ok, I'm with you two. I promise to be a gentleman.

In what follows, theories of love are tentatively and hesitantly classified into four types: love as union, love as robust concern, love as valuing, and love as an emotion. It should be clear, however, that particular theories classified under one type sometimes also include, without contradiction, ideas central to other types. The types identified here overlap to some extent, and in some cases classifying particular theories may involve excessive pigeonholing.

Part of the classificatory problem is that many accounts of love are quasi-reductionistic, understanding love in terms of notions like affection, evaluation, attachment, etc., which themselves never get analyzed. Even when these accounts eschew explicitly reductionistic language, very often little attempt is made to show how one such “aspect” of love is conceptually connected to others. As a result, there is no clear and obvious way to classify particular theories, let alone identify what the relevant classes should be.

Given that on this view the lovers do not give up their individual identities, there is no principled reason why the union view cannot make sense of the lover's concern for her beloved for his sake.[4] Moreover, Friedman argues, once we construe union as federation, we can see that autonomy is not a zero-sum game; rather, love can both directly enhance the autonomy of each and promote the growth of various skills, like realistic and critical self-evaluation, that foster autonomy.

I love this topic.

Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry, the philosophy which does not laugh and the greatness which does not bow before children.

One's philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes... and the choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.

Philosophy is the highest music.

MY DEEP THOUGHTS EXACTLY!

Now, who can explain why my dog hates it when I blow in her face, but loves to stick her head out the window when we're in the car? I'm not the original author of that question, but I wonder about it.

If there is a beginning to the universe, there must be an end to it, and therefore where beginning meets end, there must be an edge -- if not literally, certainly figuratively.

THAT is deep. I once philosophized about music and found myself in an alternative universe.

Orrrr maybe, light is the absence of dark? Either way, they both contain matter, hence they exist.

It's all one "big" playstation xbox whatever simulation game, in which the sims are playing a sim, and those sims playing a sim and so forth and so on.

Hmmm no wonder I failed physics....

Well, its just like the holodeck in Star Trek...the ancients believed the gods were in another dimension controlling the universe and people they created. Our universe was created for their amusement. We are just at the point of doing that ourselves...look at all the universes we have created through computer games and how we control what happens. Just like the holodeck the gods like to interact with us...aw well life is but a dream:laugh:

A sneeze travels at speed's up to 100 MPH. Does that mean that if you are driving your car at a speed of 100 MPH and you sneeze then your sneeze is 200 MPH?

CrazyTrackLad,

I adore your post about speed of dark.. Very interesting, great thinking.
