Aki Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 I was just thinking about how could we get out of a closed loop, if we are in one, or if it is even possible. Just wondering if travelling to an extra-dimension would do any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aki Posted October 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2004 well what I mean is living in a circle, where things are going to happen again and again, just like a closed loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 picture e.g. a circle drawn on a sheet of paper and put your finger somewhere on the circle. As long as you are confined on the circle, you can't leave it; never. however; movement on a circle is 1 dimensional, and the sheet of paper is 2D. So we -being able to see 3 (spacial) dimensions- can move our finger to the left or right; and thus get off the circle. So: getting out of a closed loop requires an extra dimension; Bo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
