How Do You Get Over Death?

RE: How Do You Get Over Death?
(August 25, 2015 at 10:00 am)Celestine Wrote: But if you must wish for something, then I shall leave a reply regarding to my statement earlier about the universe/cosmos being infinite and eternal. The universe/cosmos is infinite because thinking that it has an end, and that you will sail off that end once you reach it is silly, or you might be one who thinks there might be an invisible barrier stopping people from going any further, again silly. The universe is eternal because nothing that is infinite could possibly have a beginning, or an end, hence why it is infinite.

I have thus introduced you to the realm of philosophy.

In short the belief that the universe is finite is equivalent to the belief that the earth is flat... it is the exact same belief actually, except applied to the universe.

Perhaps the concepts of infinity and eternity scare you?

Well, you could never reach the "end" of the universe, because you cannot travel faster than light. If you were to teleport yourself to the "edge" to the universe, the light emanating from the closest star would travel to make the edge further away from you. Our universe is expanding towards infinite, but will never reach it, because it does not have infinite matter to spread.

And, no, infinite and eternity does not scare me. Death does.
