Published Date: 09 June 2008
A TEAM of physicists has claimed that our view of the early universe may contain the signature of a time before the Big Bang. The discovery comes from studying the cosmic microwave background (CMB), light emitted when the universe was just 400,000 years old.
Their model may help explain why we experience time moving in a straight line from yesterday into tomorrow. Details of the work have been submitted to the journal Physical Review Letters.

The CMB is relic radiation that fills the entire universe and is regarded as the most conclusive evidence for the Big Bang. Although this microwave background is mostly smooth, the Cobe satellite in 1992 discovered small fluctuations that were believed to be the seeds from which the galaxy clusters we see in today's universe grew.

"Every time you break an egg or spill a glass of water you're learning about the Big Bang," Professor Carroll explained.

He added that by creating a Big Bang from the cold space of a previous universe, the new universe begins its life in just such an ordered state.

The apparent direction of time – and the fact that it's hard to put a broken egg back together – is the consequence.

The signature would be EM which started the Big Bang and is in every human being.
But To state that all of us 'experience' time in the measure of a straight line is an empty theory.

Which came first? The chicken or the egg?
Irrelevant.
Since there can not be one without the other they exist simultaneously or not at all.

Scientists arfe using human methods to measure what cannot be measured in human terms, therefore any measure of the universe is a flawed truth.

Time as we know it here is not time in the universe.
Time here may be in a straight line, but it certainly is not true of the universe.
If time were a straight line, the universe could not exist.

The universe in its origination was empty and filled with electricity.
"Something' moved and created electro-magnetism. that movement created time.
Time can not be measured because it has no limit. Because it's unmeasurable and limitless we as humans experience only a fraction slowed down and very limited version of time in an unlimited universe.

Every human being is filled with electro-magnetism, the very same electro-magnetism that created our universe. This EM keeps still connects to the universe and affects our human existence in many ways.
Our brain is pulsing with electro-magnetism.
Radios are electro-magnetic.
The universe is pulsing with electro-magnetism.
The brain carries communication and thought and intelligence.
Radios carry communication and thought and intelligence.
Time and the universe is electro-magnetic and carries communication, thought and intelligence. Why should it not?
Which came first? The chicken or the egg? Both exist at the same time or they can never exist. Like ice is also frost. The same with us and the universe. Time exists simultaneously in many ways.

If we tuned our brain, like we tune a radio, we could connect to the various aspects of timelessness, intelligence and thought of the universe.

We all can connect to the past.
We connect to the no

Ooops too wordy-


We all can connect to the past.
We connect to the now.
we connect to the future.

The big bang created something out of nothing, which my brain does every day. Not a miracle really but certainly intelligent.

Some of us call this intelligent energy Electro magnetism, some of us call it God.

Carolyn 1 #1:"The universe in its origination was empty and filled with electricity."

Help me out here, empty but filled with something.

Ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :o)

Carolyn 1#1: I have always said that I run on electricity and so does everyone else. Your comment was both interesting and well stated. Thanks.

As for numbers 3,4,&5: what a bunch of numpties!

Douglas, Bathgate

You're right- my mistake.
I should have explained that the universe was dark and cold but charged with electricity. (Even though to say electricity 'filled' it is also true.)
-The electricity prevented the collapse into a vacuum.
-The pulsing created a 'charge'.
-The arrival of 'something' (God) caused movement.
-That movement, wandering everywhere in the electric charge, combined and became electro-magnetic energy. (CMB)
- This EM energy and movement is what we came to know as time...
or intelligence, or God, or life..
We are seeds from the universe, tiny tiny electric magnetic sparks from the Big Bang.
Call it whatever you want, call it a radio, but it is definitely intelligent, carries communication and is NOT Darwinian.

So what exactly is it that you're smoking? And will you share? Your comment is wordy indeed, speculative to say the least, theoretical by all means, yet entertaining. Now if they only will pay you the big money that the physicists get, you'll be able to smoke the best and come up with even more entertaining comments.|:)

Dragon- No drugs. I'm high on living. I'll plug in a pay pal later, Thank you kindly.

Douglas-
Are you suggesting that when you have an MRI (electro-magnetic imaging) your brain activity will be flat line?
If so, that would indicate you're brain dead.
Or, according to the above author, you're a bunch of scrambled eggs tossed around a frying pan; and in trouble.

Well, I switched over from running on electicity to running on caffeine. Less shocking to the system. :/ :)

Hi Weeshooie!! :)x

Carolyn,
interesting thoughts there! :)

How about this:
More stuff you will never be taught in school:
We all accept that a radio picks up electro magnetic waves. There are a lot of frequencies, all simultaneously floating around. When we turn on the radio and tune it, we hear intelligent communication created from a different place.

The Radio is actually just an shell to capture and house EM energy and the communication and intelligence it carries.

The Human Body is actually just a shell to capture and house EM energy, intelligence and communication created from a different place.

It is common and accepted knowledge that an artificial item such as a radio can carry and translate intelligence from nothing but air. It is NOT accepted that a human can also receive and translate communication from nothing but air, even though humans invented the device.

We are all fiery sparks from the Big Bang, and that isn't string theory but it is timeless.
Whatever EM is labeled, you can call it a radio, you can call it string or a parallel universe, you can call it signature, or Everything, or EM; I call it intelligence and I label it God.

I was with you right up to the label Carolyn, but as a confirmed non-believer married into a 'guid cafflik' family I know how to differ and part on good terms.
We do have to get ourselves back to the garden. I just don't think it's His.

btw, she who must be obeyed says she may create a space where nothing of any real use is at the moment if I carry on so be well and bye for now. ;O)

I could buy Caroline's theory by the way...much more 'user friendly' than the "You'll fry in hell if you màsturbate" propoganda....bet an orgàsm messes aboot sumthin awful wae aw that leccie eh ?
