A really big question
#1
Maybe the biggest

A question I have pondered unknowing if others have ever done the same.
Does size matter? Time and space being relative, I assume by the movement
of celestial objects thru the vast void of empty space is what ultimately would
govern time by distance traversed. So it might seem silly but what if someone
or something were the same size as the universe? Or even bigger living outside
of the capture? What would happen to time if I were so big that I was everywhere
all at once? I would already be anywhere I could go in the universe so it would take
no time to get there.  And why does George Costanza keep popping in n out right now?

Anyway it it doesn't matter

Yet also about all the proportions sizes and shapes of everything in the universe? Are
they not products of decision making? If not then size doesn't matter when it seems
like pretty important stuff to be left up to just some random guy. Then sizes of everything
would be all over the map. And dare for I mention that looking at maps driving truck
sticks this kind of crap in my head. So just wondering how way off coarse my brain often
takes me ladies and gentlemn of Ignorance, any thoughts?

As Einstein said, "t's all relative", so, that probably means you should ask your cousin, or something?

Ha ha, my cousin Mike was older than me. He used to tell me, " Hell I knew
your Mama and Papa when they were still brother and sister"  But not much
goin on philosophically.

Interesting. And I live the pun in the title towards your query.

Ive pondered this from a different angle.

It goes in my simple mind as “with enough force and speed, anything is possible”. Keeping in mind some things in life require a delicate and precise touch to unlock or maneuver. But I’m sure mass comes into play without getting into the weeds over physics.

Like many things, not my strong suit.

If something were as big as the universe, the idea of distance and travel would get weird because there would be nowhere else to go.

You'd already be there.

That doesn't necessarily mean time stops.

But our normal way of thinking about movement wouldn't apply.

If you were literally everywhere in the universe at once.

There would be no position you could move to that you weren't already occupying.
 
As for size, well, that clearly matters in how the universe works.

The stars, planets, atoms, and galaxies all behave differently because of their size.

Whether that's by design, or just how nature settled out, is the big question...

So far you guys are nailing it. Just what I was hoping for and thank you
 Andy for the relative links that I can try and slightly understand.

No bother, Randyvine.

As far as i understand it, the universal constants pretty much define the rules of the game.

At least where our reality/universe is concerned.

They're hard to comprehend because they operate at extreme scales.

And the top scientists don't have an answer.

You ask: "Are they not products of decision making?"

I say, "who's decision making?"

I just watched top scientists, some atheists, discuss origins of life and science and most cannot dismiss an intelligent mind at work.

I watched this video/discussion about the origins of life/science and I'm back to square one when it comes to not having the big questions answered.




"In the beginning, God created the heavens and Earth." - keywords: in the beginning, so there was a beginning of our heavens and Earth?

The more I try to understand it all, the more I question everything.

Well at least you had to come back to square one. Try using an education that only
saw the twelfth grade in public school. It's like being super glued to square one. lol
But I find it so fascinating I just keep go'n. I already know the vid you propped
will be. So gonna watch that not now but right now and thanks.
DI has the floor.

Oh James Tour! Now I know it's gonna be good. Cool

Let me know what you think after watching it because I found it cemented certain beliefs which I kept tossing around my forever questioning what is reality mind.
