Aristotle: ?Time cannot be divided in undividable moments. Time can be divided infinitely?
(which is accepted by science today)

Not true. Physicists say the smallest amount of time possible is 0.000000000000000000000000000000000135125 seconds.
No, really.
That, of course, is the time would take light to travel the smallest possible distance. "Planck Length." Zeno's arrow can -not- go 1/2 of a planck length. Once it gets that close to the target it just has a 50% chance of going all the way or not going at all.

If you think about it, that means if you zoom in on our universe close enough, you see it's pixellated and it has a framerate.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

Thats very interesting Xibalba. However, that theory assumes that relativity accurately describes the universe, which it does very well, BUT it has been known to have its shortcomings (especially on such extreme scales). I think that you are referring to what is currently called "quantum foam". That basically means that space takes on a foam-like charecteristic on sub-atomic scales.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

we are just artificial life/intelligence in virtual environments created on a super-biocomputer. the data, that is stored on a kind of self-regenerating network of fibers (equivalent to our hard disk), is our collective unconscious. the awareness of everyone right now is loaded on the (equivalent of) RAM, while our archetypes are stored on ROM. the maximum speed in our world (i.e. light speed) is just a limitation because of access/loading time, but on particular instances the use of cache, speeds things up a little bit (Gain-Assisted Superluminal Light Propagation).

the beings that created us, where themselves created by others, while we are on our way preparing the next generation. this whole recursion thing has its embryonic case recursively defined, meaning that by tracing back the creators we will find ourselves. this can be easily explained by the circular nature of time. we think of time as linear but that?s just because we are able to perceive only a tiny fraction.

now, i don?t want to get into more detail right now, but you ?re probably wondering how is it possible to know all that. well, it is all because of some onions i ate yesterday that disrupted the activity in my complex artificial neural networks. these onions were infected by a genetic algorithm, made by a young hacker, who recently abandoned the programming team of the creators. in religious terms, i am the chosen one to? naaah, i shouldn?t have pressed reply in the first place?
