it also seems a bit odd to me that it doesnt matter how bizarre something sounds in theory, chances are if you go looking for it you'll find it.
think of neutrinos/black holes/dark matter/quarks etc.
at one time black holes were thought not to even exist, now its believed that they exist at the centre of every galaxy, the things that were thought to be the strangest as to mabee not even exist have been the things that are pretty much fundamental in how the universe seems to work

Aahhhh, so could be true then, that we may be an atomic particle in an Aliens Ear wax! Yeek!

But yeah, anything is possible until proven 101% wrong.

All things are possible but science eliminates the improbable according to the latest methods.
I think it is far more disturbing that our very material Universe is based on fleeting quantum probabilty functions.
Any one who is not worried by this should check their bank balance before it changes.
It is funny that on any scale we can now see 10^20 either way. Gee we must be in the centre of the universe!
It is only by asking questions can we ever hope to expand our very limited knowledge.
We are all men of the forest and it is only lately we have time to contemplate the really big questions with even a glimmer of some sort of answer.

I can't even get colour correct yet!

I will never give up no matter how impotent I feel!

the worst part is, the people looking for answers just come up with more questions lol

I look at the way galaxies line up in strands like buttons on a string and wonder if this line up is some sort of "root" system that gathers and processes matter to be passed along the system to someplace we can not comptemplate... !!!????

to say such sounds off the planet but when you look at the maps as they are drawn it can look this way with little effort.

Irrespective of being part of some larger being we are so small in relation to what we know is there it is beyond our understanding.

What is neat is as far as we know we are the only species to think about other worlds... I dont think my dogs give it much thought for example... so how good is that?
We may even be less important than we all think of ourselves.

tried to watch MIB but it reminded me too much of some of the things i saw in the 60's

Maybe the galaxy line up is a dna strand...

If we are just a part of a gigantic creature and it is evil. Will we all go to hell for being part of it??
Sorry couldn't help myself.

Yes we will... we are tied in space and time.. it is all so clear to me now

It may all work in the opposite too!

There may be whole universes inside our Atoms!!!!

Hmmmm . . . .
