Is there the edge of the page out there?
But whats beyond the edge of the page, or on the next page, or outside the box? These questions are so far beyond my comprehension it drives me nuts. (OK, its not a drive, its a short put).
Billions of unmatched socks and car keys.
Actually, I sympathise. I wonder about stuff like this, too. If the representation of an expanding universe is true that likens it to dots on the surface of an expanding balloon, what does one find when one travels away from the center, beyond the 'surface' of the balloon? Blank space?
These questions drive me nuts, too. I always like to throw them out to athiests. They can't comprehend a God, but they can't answer these questions...and the only answer has to be a God.
Philosophers have been asking the SAME questions since there have been sapient beings. The question won't be answered but it IS a topic which scifi OFTEN asks.
Talk about imagination. THAT question, the GOD QUESTION, is always a source of unending exploration.
