- If the universe is finite, what exists beyond the confines of it? Would it just be like hitting a wall? Or would time and space itself cease to exist if you went past it?
- If time travel was possible, and you went back in time and burnt someone’s house down, how would the house appear to change in the present time?
- If we have no memory of our time before birth, would it be correct to assume life after death would be impossible?
- Why can’t we daydream as easily as we can dream normally? The brain can give almost a life-like illusion of consciousness. Does this mean our own consciousness is merely a more realistic projection, and could be “hijacked” with a replacement?
- If humans evolved from primates, why do we still have primates? Shouldn’t all primates evolved into humans or human-like species? Why have some species of animals such as tadpole shrimp have existed 220 million years without evolving?
- If matter cannot be created nor destroyed, does this mean the universe never “began” out of nothingness and consequently could never “end”?
- If Christians believe in “free will”, why would they also say something is part of “God’s plan” as one belief would not support the other?
- With the prevalence of deep fakes, Photoshop, CGI, and AI, will there reach a point where we will no longer be able to verify how genuine a photo of something concerning the paranormal is?
- We have memories, but why are they completely unobservable or accessible outside of the brain in a cellular, molecular or atomic scale?
- On a similar note, we are pre-programmed with certain memories, otherwise we would be born not knowing how to breathe, cry, etc. However, why are some animals such as cattle able to stand and walk within an hour of birth, yet humans take 10-18 months despite being a much more advance species?
