Re: Does any of this matter or even make sense?
You raise the issue of colliding branes and a sort of escape pod for the atheist.
Excuse me but just what the hell does atheism have to do with the topic?

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Re: Does any of this matter or even make sense?
I asked "what the hell does atheism have to do with the topic?"
The setting for the initial discussion is totally irrelevant to this discussion.
Neither atheism or theism have anything to do with the net energy of this universe.

Re: Does any of this matter or even make sense?
And as a Christian I must agree with them.
This is a science thread in a science sub forum and until you can bring a God in for testing, the God is irrelevant.
So again, what does either atheism or theism have to do with the topic?

Re: General relativity and dark energy
The cosmological constant was designed to keep the universe from expanding.
HUH?
I expect you can explain what you mean in that sentence?

Re: General relativity and dark energy
I suggest that you do just a little bit of research because once again, you have totally misrepresented reality.
The cosmological constant was introduced to offset gravity and explain why the universe was not collapsing.
Yes, Einstein was disappointed that he did not predict an expanding universe before experimental evidence confirmed it, but the cosmological constant was not introduced to keep the universe from expanding.

Re: General relativity and dark energy
Learn more.
Yes, Einstein added the Cosmological Constant because he thought the universe was static, but NOT to keep it from expanding.
Go read about the cosmological constant.
