Thus, you cannot derive anything from this point of view.
As to the fate of the universe: I was going to write something, but figured I'll just link to this article, since John Baez says it a lot clearer than I can!
Finally, is this in the place you intended to post it now? I can't see if it's been moved since you added that comment or not! |
