But yeah, if something infinite expands, it will expand from infinity to double-infinity (yeah, no sense at all).
I understand a little now.

How can you say it's infinite if your theory says it's sphere-like.

Take word "Space" as an example. If you start your journey from S and end it in E, that would mean it has a start and end. You would just start the circle again from S and end it again into E.
In this case, it's not infinite. It's just doing circles.
WRONG! It's not like that. The sphere is not a 2D object. You confused the surface of the sphere (Earth - like thing) with the sphere.
Of course there are other dimensions which force you to do a circle.
Remember that you CAN'T GO in a STRAIGHT LINE in the universe.

Now I have completely no idea what to go for. I do understand and all that, but the confusion (like in post #143) is killing me.

Don't think it as a normal sphere because in that case you can't make circles in an infinite surface.(09-28-2012, 07:51 PM)BAndrew Wrote: Suppose that the universe is infinite.That's where the confusion starts for me.

Umm... what's the difference between "sphere" and "sphere"?

Sphere and sphere is the same.
RE: Time? - BAndrew - 09-28-2012
The word "sphere" was used in order to explain how an open or closed universe might look like (you make circles in any case) please don't confuse it and try to imagine universe as a sphere. It clearly doesn't make sense that way.
RE: Time? - Robby - 09-28-2012
All of this is a mystery if you ask me.

Sphere and sphere is the same.
2 Dimension = Surface
3 Dimension = Volume
4 Dimension = Time
5 Dimension = ???
x Dimension = ???
To help you a bit. The universe has at least 10 dimensions and you can only sense the 4 of them and you don't understand any of them.
