Are there infinite dimentions?
Thursday, July 2, 2009
I believe that each choice we make opens up a new alternate world, but I don't know if that equals infinite dimensions.
Hey hey hey! Slow down, pardner! Let's stick with the dimensions we got before getting all infinite over here! :)
Carl Sagan giving a great explanation of flatland and the 4th dimension.

That man is my hero.
@lombardian WOW!
I love the way he explains things so clearly and at the same time doesn't generate controversy. Really has his thoughts straight. On the way to watching the rest of his vids now!
I have watched everyones videos thanks for sharing, fascinating stuff, WOW!!!
Baha'u'llah talks about the many Worlds of God we traverse in the Afterlife. Those that have died and passed on are on the other side and can see us but we can't see them or feel them unless we are sensitive or psychic. This whole universe is a wonderful awe inspiring mystery and we are only on the tip of the iceberg in understanding it. I just love quantum physics for opening up another dimension in my mind to help me comprehend reality. We do live in a holographic universe, I hope over time I will have a much deeper understanding as to what that is. This stuff really excites me for it is truly spiritual and is about who we really are as spiritual beings and our part in this incredible universe created by a Divine Intelligence.
I know there was the 5th Dimension... Remember KENSHO1111?
I believe the concept of dementia and I believe the concept of dimensions
@Rasputnik In a three dimensional world yes. In dimensions beyond our understanding maybe not. I think it kind of wraps in on itself(this is hard to imagine in 3 or more dimensions). If you think of 2 points on a circle, they both have the same distance on each side or could be viewed as a center point of the arc but are not the same points.
We are in Flatland

@lombardian Great video, thanks. I have pondered this and I think I have come up with a similar concept. I could never put it into words like he did.
@hittingthesingularity I'm all for imagination, but I'm going to just keep picturing a nice, warm sunset, instead.
I'll give it to you it's certainly possible, but I still like my first post, on the whole.
@lombardian
Just saw the second video. It raised the following question for me:
If each point of indeterminate size is in the center of infinity, a line from one point to another cannot be drawn, correct? Since a line requires separate points to connect, and each and every point you place would be in the center of the same infinite plane, wouldn't every point be the same?
@Rasputnik Oh, no you can hardly prove any of this, that I will agree with. It takes imagining the impossible to to conceive that this is even possible.
I watched that video. While thought provoking, it offered no proof other than, "Hey, check out this pattern!".
I, for one, don't buy it. (Of course, my opinion is SO Valuable, with my highschool physics education).
@lombardian interesting, I have not seen this one. I'll get back to you after i can watch it which will be in a couple hours
@lombardian I've seen that video, It's actually what got me interested in this type of stuff at first, and what made me understand the those dimensions. It does a very good job of explaining. However, at the end of the video when it gets to the tenth dimension, they say that that is all that we can comprehend with the knowledge we have. But if you follow that pattern, then surely it is endless, no? We must just accept the fact that we can't understand everything yet, and if everything is endless, there will always be more to discover.
Actually what first got me thinking about this stuff was when i was considering the meaning of life. And I think that one possible answer is that the purpose of life is simply to learn. And if you beleive we do not perish as beings, then there will always have to be more to discover if we are to continue to grow.
Actually, this video applies better to this question:

I'm fairly certain that most theoretical physicists agree on there being 10 dimensions.

I totally agree. check out the Parallel universe theory to, By Mark Everett - Father of E. from Eels.
Maybe, but I don't know, and I don't think anyone else does either. At least, not with the certainty that the anonymous quote suggests.
Perhaps we now know why it was anonymous?

I believe there are infinate demensions is space, just like there are infinate possibillites, there are infinate demensions. There are string theories, parellel universes, and many other types of acousal demensional realties, like the akaishic field. I do believe science is staring to prove this.
