What we see: Not always what we get...




Our scientists are just educated dreamers actively pursuing an alternate universe, while having an acquaintance with only four percent of this one.

Does this make a whole lot of sense to you? We already knew that it takes something to make something. We can't combine two nothings into a something. It has always been that way, ever since God said "Let there be Light!" and the Devil said, "As you wish!" and set off The Big Bang. The smoke is still clearing, all this time later. And we still don't know what went 'Boom' in the night.... we've argued about it for eons.

I suspect there probably is an "alternate universe" but we're too tiny to get anywhere near putting it into perspective sufficiently to confirm that. Which may be a very good thing. If the "Big Bang" was what the evidence suggests, then we might not find that "alternate universe" all that hospitable. We may very well be better off right where we are. In case we ever figure out where that is. And scientists are just people with a very complex way of saying "we don't know!" Perhaps, we don't know because we aren't meant to have our reach exceed our grasp.
