The universe and eternity
#6
RE: The universe and eternity
As the universe expands, the energy density (even if that isn't quite the correct way of saying it) is further and further diluted.

The universe is currently 13700000000 years old. And it seems a pretty dynamic place. Now contemplate how dynamic it is going to be in 10^13700000000 years (clever way of making a really big num num ain't it?) and all the stars are burned out and all the black holes have evaporated to nothing, all the protons have decayed, and the universe is hideously, grotesquely, unimaginably and vastly vastly vastly bigger than it is now (recall it's diameter is expanding at 2C for all those 10^13700000000 years) (do the math!!!) (get a better calculator!!!!!!) and all the leftover dissipated energy is smeared down to maybe not nothing, but way closer than you can figure.

This should serve to further sadden all of us in our moments of dark despair . . .
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
