Do we as a species deserve to ever find another planet to live on as we're destroying planet Earth?

In my opinion one might think NOT. Why coz we'd most likely destroy that planet too. We're destroying the planet at a such a great rate now. Why, well maybe it's all to do with greed. Does the western world realise the more we consume the more we are destroying ourselve's.

Is there more than one universe and if so how do YOU know?

What do you think of the string theory & other dimensions of space and time. Would you go there if you could? Maybe we go there when we are re-incarnated for those who believe in that. I saw a TV show on outer body & near death experiences and the fact they may be caused by our brain's. Just maybe our brain is a gateway to another dimension in time & space???????? Thanks in advance with your answers. Is there a right answer to this one??? I'd love to know what professor Stephen Hawking thinks about this one?

Gödel's incompleteness theorem?

Goldstein described it as "In any formal system adequate for number theory there exists an undecidable formula -- that is, a formula that is not provable and whose negation is not provable"

Professor Ichi describes it as: "A retarded waste of time"

Why bother posing absolutely improvable questions: if you can't get to an answer yourself why do people feel like sharing the suffering...

The world of Maths is full of geniuses; but we are almost all completely nuts: its things like this that do our heads in, can everyone stop now with the conjectures and the theorems: what do you think...

How far back in time can theoretically see?

Its not possible to actually see the light from the big bang as this light would already have passed far beyond us into the immensity of space. In fact as the universe expanded it did so slower than the speed of light so any light emitted in the early universe up until a point would also have passed beyond us, even the light emitted from the 'far side' of the universe. But based on the distance we now are from the big bang centre of origin and the time taken for earliest light to reach our current position from what was essentially the far side of the universe when those particular photons of light were emitted - is it possible to estimate this theoretical threshold point when we can see the earliest ever light from the primevil universe? Hope the question makes sense, it was kind of hard to explain my thinking.

Pole shift theory - does anyone know more about this?

Saw a documentary yesterday that briefly mentioned pole shift theory - the north and south poles "swap", causing catastrophic changes on the earth surface. There is evidence that it happens every 200,000 years, at the moment we are 400,000 years overdue! No human has ever witnessed this event. Does anyone out there know more on the subject? By the way - I've already checked Wiki, so please don't use that
