Does reality comprise only 5% of the Universe?

[AV1611VET]

It shouldn't. (Psuedo) Peter didn't know anything about the composition of the Universe, so he couldn't write about it. You might as well claim this passage was about cryptocurrency blockchains. It would make just as much sense.

You just don't get it, do you?

Why you keep trying to tie anonymous religious writers to modern science, no, and I probably never will. That level grasping for things that could not be in the old text is just odd.

You have heard that Job mentioned electronic communications, have you not?

Obviously you are not aware one of the greatest minds of the 20th century Erich Von Daniken states in the Bible the Ark Of the Covenant was built by the Israelites under instructions from astronaut gods as a communications device.

PS. My post like others is indicative how far off the rails this thread has gone.

And if I remember the book correctly, he said the Ark was a giant battery, and that's why it killed Uzzah, when he touched it.

Yeah something like that from what I can recall including other classics such as Sodom and Gomorrah being wiped out by a nuclear explosion.

Ya -- I forgot about that one.

Electronic communications jobs are not relevant to this thread.

I took his post as saying 68% of the 5% of the physical universe.



Why?

To avoid digging yourself into a hole you'll have trouble getting out of.

Okay.

The book of Numbers in the Bible isn't about how to use a calculator.

Is this an attempt at a scientific justification for taking LSD?

Consciousness is limited to only 5% of the brain.

That sounds a bit like matter is limited to only 5% of the universe.

 

[Hans Blaster]

The book of Numbers in the Bible isn't about how to use a calculator.

Of course not, calculators didn't exist in 600 BCE. Just like physical cosmology didn't exist in 150 CE or so when "2 Peter" was forged.

 

[AV1611VET]

Of course not,

And so the book of Job in the Bible wouldn't be about job applications, would it?

That's how I'm understanding the title of this thread.

 

[BeyondET]

That sounds a bit like matter is limited to only 5% of the universe.

If your brain matter was the universe your conscience is only responsible for 5% of its thoughts and actions, meaning your reality.

I don't think humans have even reached knowing 5% of the universe.

It may be that as consciousness increases, as we become more aware that this is what is expanding the universe at increasing speeds.

But they figured that out many years ago. It's not consciousness making the universe expand it is time. Einstein said you can't separate time and space. Supposedly, they have tested this and found that the universe is expanding at the same rate that time flows...
