Isolated universes

The universe is an isolated system because there is nothing "outside" of it to interact with.

Hi onifre (what happened to onfire?),

Do you see why an intelligent person could make an issue with your "isolated system"? It makes such a person ask: Isolated from what?

It is self contained within the spacetime that IS the universe itself.

So then the universe is isolated from itself? Something isn't right here.

I'm holding out for parallel universes that intersect dimensionally. But I can assure you that I'm a cosmological lightweight. Who isn't? Nobody even knows yet what dark matter is or how much of it is out there.

An isolated system is: "a physical system that does not interact with its surroundings."

I hate to be a real FosDICK here, but if you are saying that the universe is isolated from its surroundings, then you begging for the reply: WHAT SURROUNDINGS? (Friends of all parallel universes take heed: there is room for us in "the surroundings.")

What would you call the space in between the parallel universes, the tiny microscopic space?

What do you call the space between the first dimension and the second, or the third, or the fourth? And what makes you think there is space between parallel universes, anyway? "Space" is probably the biggest copout in science. It's like the word "truth."

btw: It's important to know that I don't know a goddamn thing about I'm talking about. That's why I post here, because nobody else does, either.

Gay marriage? Legal!

In memory of Hoot-mon/Fosdick...yuck!

But I support civil unions for gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transvestites, polygamists, necrophiliacs, and navel lint collectors.
