If a graph approaches a value we are unable to attain, but simply gets closer and closer to it, can we assume that the graph continues infinitely without touching the graph? By definition, isn't infinity simply something that never ends and continues forever?
English
-
Burnished Infinity achievable? Can our minds comrahend it if it was?
-
Why wouldn't it be? Can anything truly end or begin?
-
But isn't every end a beginning? Doesn't the end of a republic lead to the founding of an empire? Doesn't the end of a tyranny lead to a the founding of a country? Doesn't the end of a large war bring on peace? A quite simple euphemism: Isn't the bursting of one light bulb the birth of a new one?
-
Isn't that where we stray from science and travel into philosophy? Does my wording mean I agree to an extent?
-
Isn't it often that simple philosophies apply in science?
-
Isn't it true that science can be proven, but many deep philosophical ideas cannot?
-
Isn't philosophy less of fact but more of a moral Code, comparable to Buddhism?
-
Doesn't it depend on what kind of philosophy and philosophical ideas we are talking about?
-
Well, what philosophy are we talking about? There is more than one?
-
Isn't there philosophy about morals, and philosophies that work to explain what science does?
-
Are you admitting that philosophies can explain concepts of science?
-
Aren't I saying philosophies attempt to explain those concepts, and some may be more plausible than others? Why do you say admitting, as if I were arguing something else against this idea?
-
[quote]Isn't it true that science can be proven, but many deep philosophical ideas cannot?[/quote] But weren't you saying that philosophy could not be proven?
-
Aren't I still maintaining that it cannot be proven? Doesn't religion attempt to explain the world around us, though it can never be proven? Don't some people believe that certain religions are more plausible than others, hence their faith in that religion?

Edited by shell: 9/27/2015 4:24:09 PMBut can scientific theories be proven? Do we have telescopes strong enough to look at the Big Bang, if it Exist?
-
Doesn't it depend on the theory? Can telescopes ever see the Big Bang if it allegedly happened billions and billions of years ago?
-
Don't you know of Einsteins theories? That if a telescope on Pluto was pointed at Earth, we would see about 30 minutes into the past? (assuming the telescope could see earth)
-
Isn't this the first I have heard of this theory?
-
How would I know?
-
Can't you infer based off of my statement that this is the first I have heard of this theory?
-
Can't [u]you infer[/u] that I can't on account of my asking?
-
What if I thought you were just trying to continue the conversation on, and so asked a question regarding the validity of my question? Do you prescribe to the theory of the Big Bang, are you religious, or do you blend them together?
-
Can't they both be true to some extent? Isn't it a universal law that matter can't be created or destroyed? Then what caused the Big Bang? In the end, doesn't belief in the Big Bang take as much blind faith as religion?
-
Is there such a thing as "blind" faith?
-
Isn't all faith blindly following without full evidence?
