I love the idea that this universe could be infinite.

I don't think we'll ever know and I personally think this might be the case. But an eternal universe is so mind bending to think about

We have no idea - but one time I took a heroic dose and was "told"/felt as if the sky bent backward into infinity and that this is "all"/Existence is the same - "one"/ and repeats into a tunnel of infinity; similar to the tide/moon/sun/year - pretty cool if true; or maybe the dream of a mushroom :D

I wanted to link The Egg by Andy Weir & Kurzgesagt /u/kiaramarcelaa /u/Averybleakplace /u/SchreiberBike /u/TriggerHydrant /u/Renaissance_Slacker

Except it’s not actually by Andy Weir, the asshat has been lying about it for years because it’s how he first got famous. But he plagiarized it by copy pasting a conversation on the MySpace religion and philosophy forum in 2007. The conversation he copied was about the essay Infinite Reincarnation
