Is reality Real?

[Traveler]

Everything, time space and matter was created at one moment in time known as "The Big Bang."

Now you cannot ask what happened before The Big Bang because time was created at that very moment, so there was no "before" The Big Bang. And you sure can't say

Have to disagree, there was Time before the Big Bang, just no way to measure it.

Define "time".

They did make it into a movie.  My imagination, while reading, was better than the movie.  I'm sure that I'm not alone.

The Infocom game was fun too.

I know they made a movie but a movie can represent perhaps 2% of the books. And 90% of that wrong.

Could be on to something cause apparently the moon is just a hologram too!

There are are a lot of thing wrong in the OP - facts, history and physics. Too many to type.

Once philosophy is brought into the discussion you immediately know that this is going to be pseudo-physics BS. Philosophy was cast out of science about 200 (?) years ago for a reason. Universities now keep their professors of philosophy in a building sufficiently removed from the science and engineering departments so the scientist will not have to use the same cafeteria with the philosophers.

The world we see is just the shell of a turtle.  So what's the turtle standing on?  Another turtle.  You see, its turtles all the way down.

Well I never really studied this stuff. Everything except the first introduction and the "Now you're saying, Kippy, how does that even make sense?" Was pulled from an article. I just wanted to see input from you guys and see if you all had ideas.

Well, That hasn't done me too much good as this threat has derailed a bit into hilarity, but I suppose the hilarious results are better than the ones I wanted.

Um, it's an increasingly ill-named trilogy of 5 books.

Increasingly?
