It may sound like the outlandish plot of a poorly conceived science-fiction flick.
But some scientists now claim that humanity, the Earth, and everything else in the universe are really part of a giant holographic projection.
While this might sound all too familiar to fans of The Matrix, this bold idea could solve some of physics' most challenging questions.

I’d say 3-D.
How many millions of tax dollars did it take to come up with this pile of speculation I wonder.
Hindus believe we are in a dream of Vishnu...............
The Lord created the universe in many dimensions. The Bible even alludes to this.
John 14:2-6 (King James Version)
2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
In the beginning, GOD ------
One either accepts some form of creation story, and this hologram BS is just "some scientists" claiming -- claiming -- that "God / cosmos / no thing and nothing but maybe some hologram-maker" they "claim" is the new "in the beginning."
It is assured that along with this BS will come 1) demands for more money, and 2) demands for greater control of whole populations.
Because of "some scientists." The BS-ologists.
On the other hand, just because some retard calls himself a scientist doesn't make anything he says valid.
1D....................
Same here. Their explanation for gravity in 2D was lacking.

Dream of Vishnu
The concept of the universe being a dream of Vishnu is a significant idea in Hindu mythology and philosophy. According to Vaishnava traditions, Vishnu, in his form as Maha-Vishnu, experiences a creative sleep during which tiny universes manifest and are destroyed from the pores of his skin with each breath, reflecting the total universal time.
In Hindu scriptures, Vishnu is often depicted as reclining on the serpent Ananta-Shesha, floating on the cosmic ocean, in a state of yoga-nidra, or deep sleep. During this dream-like state, Vishnu sustains the universe, maintaining it through his imagination.
The idea of the universe as Vishnu’s dream is not exclusive to any particular sect but is a well-accepted truth among Vaishnavas of various groups who are versed in scripture.
This concept is also reflected in the Vedas, where Vishnu’s wide stride and his role in creation are mentioned.
Artistic representations, such as ancient carvings and modern interpretations, often depict Vishnu in a serene slumber, symbolizing the creation and sustenance of the universe through his dreams.
Dreams in Hindu philosophy are not seen as mere escapes from reality but as fertile grounds where reality is conceptualized and birthed. Vishnu’s dreams serve as a metaphysical canvas where the universe is painted into being, reflecting the profound wisdom of ancient civilizations.
Maybe Vishnu was having a fever-dream then.
Oh well, if scientists say it, it must be so... who are we to dissagree?
uh oh... why do my spidey senses tell there is another wave of comparable Flat Earthers that are going to emerge over this...
So, are there really 8 billion of us, or do YOU not exist? Because I exist. And the never ending question is “Why?”
Are we all part of some greater consciousness? Probably. But I don’t know. And by the time I find out, I won’t be able to tell anyone.
It’s a fun thought exercise, but don’t spend a ton of time “worrying” about it.
For the record, the “consensus of scientists” (which really is no co senses at all, but facts don’t matter to agendists), man is 99% responsible for global warming (even though global warming has ALWAYS hzppend in the past without any help from mankind at all)
Maybe Vishnu was having a nightmare...................
—uh oh... why do my spidey senses tell there is another wave of comparable Flat Earthers that are going to emerge over this...—
That’s a fair prediction. There are all sorts of foolishness out there.
Awwww jeez.... Not THIS again?!
