Let's put them to the test. Earth and the Universe theories.

What is your favorite Earth theory? And, which one do you think is the craziest of them all? or, which one is the most convincing one?

1. Flat Earth - Flat Earth model is an archaic belief that the Earth's shape is a plane or disk.

2. Concave Earth - State that the Earth is concave (curving upward), thus we are on the inside of a hollow Sphere.

3. Hollow Earth - The hypothesis proposes that the planet Earth either is entirely hollow or otherwise contains a substantial interior space.

4. Matrix Earth - State that reality is a simulation by an AI.

If you know a few more, please feel free to add to the list.

I'll share my opinion later.

Unless you think every picture from every person taken of Earth from space is fake, then um.....

2. Concave Earth - State that the Earth is concave (curving upward), thus we are on the inside of a hollow Sphere.

Um....My eyes tell me this is not correct....

3. Hollow Earth - The hypothesis proposes that the planet Earth either is entirely hollow or otherwise contains a substantial interior space.

This could be possible, but should be able to be proven one way or another....I will say this is the most convincing to me but there is a LOT of evidence to support otherwise...

4. Matrix Earth - State that reality is a simulation by an AI.

We are NOT in the Matrix....

If you know a few more, please feel free to add to the list.

I'll share my opinion later.

Multidimentional earth...where the earth's space holds more than one dimensional plane. Holographic earth...where all that you see is not real (similar to your matrix) ...I, personally am not a subscriber of any of these...

My favourite Earth theory is that its an oblate sphere with an iron core revolving around the Sun.

That to me is the most convincing one


The craziest one to me is the flat Earth theory

I really like this one when I seen it . It really makes a person think .

The "Matrix Earth" theory was interesting for time, until you bring irrational numbers into the equation.

Irrational numbers are strings of never-ending, never-repeating numbers. Like Pi.

If Pi never repeats, and never ends, then one must reasonably conclude that we don't live in a simulation. No simulation, no matter how sophisticated, can include a number which repeats infinitely, since it would take an infinite amount of data to store that number alone, much less all of the other data which must simulate the universe.

Now, if someone were to prove that Pi has a concrete end, or begins repeating, well... I would probably change my tune.

I remember long ago hearing the universe is a hologram,
science is now starting to back this is up somewhat.

The 'holographic principle,' the idea that a universe with gravity can be described by a quantum field theory in fewer dimensions, has been used for years as a mathematical tool in strange curved spaces. New results suggest that the holographic principle also holds in flat spaces. Our own universe could in fact be two dimensional and only appear three dimensional -- just like a hologram.

It's really Hell, only when you die it gets worse.

The Flat Earth theory is crazy but........

... then again I've never seen the earth from outer space, heck I've never been out of this country.

So I cant deny the Theory 100% yet.

No one can unless they've been in space or traveled across the globe for themselves.

My opinion:
1. Flat Earth, science already disprove this one.
2. Concave Earth, somehow it does not make sense to me. If the Earth is concave, that mean that I can see the "other side of the world" just by looking up.
3. Hollow Earth, science says that the center of that Earth is composed of hot molten iron and other metals. That may qualify as a hollow Earth but still fill with something.
4. Matrix Earth, there is some ancient teachings about a Living Mind theory that says that we are a creation of the though of God and we live in His mind.

Interesting but what if:
"Pi" is the anomaly. Then "Neo" probably is the software to correct that anomaly and reset the system. And everything start back again.

I would almost buy that one for a dollar... Hmmmmm...

a reply to: Abednego

My thoughts are that we live on the outside of a spinning Ball of Rock that's alive and are hurtling through space at thousands of miles per hour. It is covered with us Human animals that are mostly insane. Of course we try to be like a 'normal' person, but inside, thrive to cut loose and be crazy... Just my 2 cents worth here...

At least that is the proven theory.
Or NASA's biggest conspiracy.

Just messing around.

Even if it's an anomaly, an infinitely long never repeating number would still require an infinite amount of space to store it. In your theory, should the "anomaly" appear, it would instantly and irreversibly crash the simulation as the storage space of the simulation would instantly fill to capacity the moment "Pi" appeared.

LOL That!!! LMAO!!!

Ding Ding! I'd think that would be correct SR! Good to see You again BTW!

That's a new one to me. Interesting, but where is all that new matter coming from?And what about all the ocean water?

My favorite theory, in terms of how interesting it is, has to be the hollow earth theory. I just find it fun to think about, but I don't believe it. The most ridiculous theory of all those is the concave earth, which I had never heard of either, to be honest. Flat earth... ok, I can *almost* understand that, but to tell me that we're on the inside of a big ball when we can look up and see the sun and the moon and stars and other planets... that's just downright impossible! Somebody grab me a telescope, I want to see China! ... Wait a minute...

Good to see you too, work has been incredibly busy, which is when I usually post.

The fact that with the current technology we cannot see the whole of the decimal number does not mean that is infinite. Pi is not an infinite number, is has a value less than four or to be exact less than 3.15 at which moment will stop being Pi.

It has a value that cannot be measured with the current technology. As soon as a pattern shows up it will stop being an irrational number. Same thing with the Golden ratio (1.6180....).

Just thinking.
