Too true.
An all powerful being would not have a form since it would not need one so how are we in 'his' image? Does this being walk around the universe?
Snicker.

You know what they say............................
Some god created us in its image, and we returned the favor.
Very vain and arrogant on our part - as usual.


Does "Amen" sound too religious?
This solar system is not even relevant.
Our galaxy might be the laughing stock of the rest.
Who knows for sure?
Not us.

How did you feel when string theory morphed into brane / M theory ?
Will this lead to revelation of the singularity ?

As you well know, a theory is just that until it is proved.
String theory is a bit loopy (pun intended), and Brane/M is too new to have much thought behind it yet. Which singularity and in which of the dimensions that we have no knowledge of?
I find it egotistical that scientists assume the universe is 14.7 billion years old based on the fact that we can only detect light that far in any direction, placing us at the middle of the known universe.
How did those galaxies 14.7 billion light years just happen to exist right at the time of the mythical 'Big Bang'?
See where I am going with this?
WE can't know.
There is no brick wall beyond which there may not be more universes or it may just go on for quadrillions of light years with no end.
If you travel ten quadrillion light years in any direction will you cease to exist or will you still be surrounded by stars?
Gravity exists and is pulling on us from the most distant point imaginable, yet we can't grab a piece and analyze it. If a black hole poofs into another time/space/dimension and it's gravity disappears how long until we feel the effect? Does gravity travel at the speed of light? How does gravity exist in a vacuum, which is, in essence, not measurable by human instruments? That makes an argument for another dimension in which gravity can be seen and analyzed.
Need I go on?

THE singularity would be the beginning of the universe WE know.
It doesn't wash. We only think we know because our telescopes can see out to an 'estimated' 14 billion light years and measure the red/blue shift. Due to our inherent arrogance we assume that we are making a valid measurement. That puts us at the center of the 'known' universe.
Wouldn't the church just love that?
Our laws of physics probably don't apply except in our area of knowledge.
True. If 'we' can't see it then it must not exist.
Black holes are only collapsed star matter. Their density leads to their
own eventual destruction. We wouldn't "feel" the effect of such a
disappearance.
Just as the earth could be collapsed into a mini black hole by a major blunder of our scientists messing with things like CERN. Satellites would still orbit the remaining tiny black hole and the moon would care less and would still orbit the gravity center. Alien visitors would just comment on the science getting ahead of the checks that a truly intelligent species would have done before making the fatal experiment.
Then they would move on looking for true intelligent life forms.
We aren't. Only 0.0001% are intelligent enough to even begin to understand that kind of thing. Does a kid understand the workings of a cell phone? Hardly. Can he fix it? No. Just go to the store and get a new one.
Brane theory moves us..............finally ..................into the exploration
of parallel universes, and may expose our understanding of time to be
very limited and inaccurate.

No shit!

You ask if gravity travels at light speed.
How do you imagine gravity travels ?

It is a push in reverse time. That is something we are not prepared to handle.
