If I am thinking what you are thinking, open.
------------------
Hey, some people say I'm closed minded, but I like to consider myself open to new ideas, new forms of life, that sorta thing.
Please, about me getting bigger, my weight is a serious subject...

You are expanding yet you gain no mass.

Alex
well...isn't this interesting.
looks like we got ourselves a little pet parade going on here.
ok, i'll play alone...er, i mean, along.
the original intent of this thread was to understand what one believes about the current state of the universe in regards to the controversy: open or closed.
open means that the universe is expanding infinitely, and therefore, capable of having 'x' mass.
closed means that the universe has periods of expanding and contracting movements. (thank you, mr. hawking)
the current trend is for an open universe.
i am more for the latter.
naturally, this controversy alternates depending upon newly discovered areas of evidence...this has yet to be brought up. maybe later.
so, i ask again, what do you think? http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif

I think the universe is like my anus, only giant sized. Sometimes it contracts, but that's only to cut off the shit that's overflowing http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif

As miserable as life may be I hold it pretty precious...
If I lose the light of the sun, I will write by candlelight, moonlight, no light. If I lose paper and ink, I wil write in blood on forgotten walls. I will write always, I will capture nights all over the world and bring them to you.

Alex, I'm good like that. You wish you were this smooth. I'm every womans dream man, cuz I've got lots of muscle mass, and I'm every womans dream cuz I gain mass but weigh nothing http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
------------------
I think the universe is open, always expanding. I've never personally read anything by Steven Hawkings so I really don't know what he has to say about the universe contracting, however, I would be interested in finding out about it.
If anyone could briefly *note use of Briefly* enlighten me to as the main jist of it.

We can't decide how or when we'll die, but we can decide how we live.

um....are you implying your anus is even bigger than the universe's...????

Alex
Apparently, it's expanding while staying the same size.

That is a pretty big hole Hannibal. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
If the universe is closed, then we will never know because it is expanding more rapidly than we can see. For example, we are just now seeing the light from the stars that were moving away from us several billion or so years ago. If they are continuing to move away they are probably still moving faster.
Also, if the universe is closed, what would be the boundry? What is the difference from the vaccum of the universe and nothing outside. Also, how could one determine if they had left the universe? Take one more step and look back?

No... i meant, the universe is like my anus *or any anus* , only giant sized, meaning the universe is a giant anus itself, not that mines big.
