So does that prove the Big Bang theory or does it just make it more likely?

They proved that it is possible to create extreme amounts of energy and matter from a single point.

No, they made a place really hot.
If they recreated the fake "Big Bang" stuff then nobody would be here.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but the experiment was controlled so that it would not kill us.

Big deal.

They recreated the big bang.

One of the griefers got tired and left, the other one, who seems slightly handicapped, is still richarding around

It may be the fact that I am dead tired, and just watched roughly 10 disturbing videos on youtube, but "richarding around" sounds like something a small bird might do. :l

This game needs more types of stone.

Agreed.  10 surface biomes, and only one type of stone, very boring when mining.

This game also needs more plant life, perhaps a vine plant that grows in rainforests, (or anywhere hot and wet) which can grow onto any block and connect like redstone dust does to itself, which can overgrow onto your buildings after a long time.  It could be broken into either a vine seed or usable vine, which does not grow, but can be used to make ladders.

As an agnostic, I honestly don't care where the universe came from. Just that it's here and it will be for a long time.

This isn't about the origin of the universe, just about how it can be infinite, yet still expand, and why there is nothing outside of it.

I understood what he said, also.

I'm really into the wonders of space and time.

I'm glad some people understood it, most people I explain this to have no idea what I'm talking about. :P

This is the biggest verbal-based mess I have ever seen in my entire life.
You can't just use periods and comma's and expect a coherent text experience, you need to use paragraphs and better structuring in general.


You have disgraced yourself, now go to your room and think about what you have done[.]

Also, I see nothing wrong with my use of punctuation, but I might just be too tired to notice where I went wrong.

So, this is partly from a physics lesson at school, and partly from documentaries and my own knowledge, I will attempt to illustrate in a simple way, how the universe can be infinite, yet be expanding.

First off, the universe is not exactly infinite.  What scientists mean by "infinite", is that you can keep going in a straight line, and never hit a solid end of the universe.

So, think of the universe as a wheel, a flat surfaced, but round wheel.  Now, if we were to go much faster than the speed of light, we could imagine this wheel is a 2d version of the universe.  The 2d metaphor works, because you are only traveling in one direction at any one time.  If you were to be going forward, but angled up at 20°, you could just imagine the next millimeter of the wheel is at 20°.  Now, if you are going straight in any direction in the universe, you will end up back where you started.  (If you don't run into an object or die.)  So, imagine going in one direction as going around the wheel.  You will eventually end up where you started, but never ran into an edge or teleported.  You have gone the entire length of the universe.  Now, if the universe is expanding, let's have the wheel expand as well.  Now that the wheel has expanded, it will take longer to do one full rotation of the wheel, just as it now takes longer to traverse the entire length of the universe.  In a 3d world (like our own), pretend that the direction you are going is forward on the wheel, you never change angles, but you end up going in a loop (pretend the wheel is turning instead, like a treadmill).

Lol this is wrong :3

I don't think Minecraft was intended to be "Christan".

It is either a very elaborate troll attempt, or somebody is obsessed with Christianity enough to find any resemblance between a survival-sandbox game and the bible.  Also, "alpha" refers to the current state of completion it is in.
