When I say that we're viewing the universe as a singularity I mean as a whole unit that can't be broken down into seperate pieces. I may have to change the term to something else if the way I am using it is contradictory to its commonly understood definition. Perhaps "single point"? |
The wrong thing about this "point of view" which is out of the universe (I understand) and sees the universe as dimensionless, is that dimensionlessity includes timelessity, so, the observer could never observe.
