Rainman Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Science seems to be saying that God must be made up of "somethings" that have a unit size of less than one "Planck length". Why? Because in physics, the Planck length, is a unit of length, equal to 1.616252(81)×10−35 meters and is the smallest distance or size about which anything can be known. Move this idea into Big Bang theory. Following scientific reasoning to date, "Pure Vacuum" or "absolutely nothing" does not exist and specifically did not exist in the Universe before or at the exact instant of the Big Bang. However science is concluding that something existed concurrently with the instant of the Big Bang...but just not Pure Vacuum and, according to physics, not matter, or energy or anything currently known. Hmmm. Something existed at the instant of the Big Bang but it is not known and probably can not be known. Then that something must be made up of some "things" less than one Planck length. It looks to me like science is in the process of measuring God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphus Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Science seems to be saying that God must be made up of "somethings" that have a unit size of less than one "Planck length". I really don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm. Science never said what existed, or did not exist, before or at the moment of the Big Bang. There could have been matter from a pre-existing universe. The BB obliterated any trace of what pre-existed the BB. I don't believe a pure vacuum or absolutely nothing existed before the BB. Conditions existed which triggered the BB, and that ain't nothin'.

swansont Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 It looks to me like science is in the process of measuring God. Some scientists feel this way. However, this is not a question of physics/science, as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
