Science Lemmings


   Science Lemmings pretty much follow the philosophy of any other group of lemmings.  Lemming groups are represented by such groups as Religious Lemmings, Political Party Lemmings, Family Lemmings and Patriotic Lemmings.  The members of lemming groups don’t primarily think as individuals.  They follow a respected leader.  Some call it faith.  The Science Lemmings once believed that the sun circled the Earth.  This belief was shared by the Religious Lemmings and pretty much everyone else.  It was a popular belief.  By observing the sun from the Earth each day, there was little reason to question the belief.  Belief changes with time, unless it is religious belief.

   Science Lemmings of today pretty much universally believe in The Big Bang Theory.  My understanding of the theory is that about 35 billion years ago a bit of matter, the size of a pinhead exploded BANG and from this explosion the material universe was created.  It has the feel to me of something from nothing, or nearly nothing to everything in the universe.  My experience when questioning anyone in the Science Lemming group is that they believe in big bang, but they can’t actually explain the transaction.  They cannot produce the mathematical formula behind the theory and if they could I probably wouldn’t understand it.

   Neil deGrasse Tyson did say in a Video that I watched that he did believe in the Big Bang Theory and when asked where it took place, he said here, where the Earth is now.  He further explained that anywhere in the universe where the theory is applied, will be the point of origin of the big bang.  I would guess that Neil has a working understanding of the formula.  So the exact location of the bang was anywhere and everywhere.  That is a problem for me.  How could it be?

   Tyson is a very bright man.  I believe that the Science Lemmings may have one small error in their formula.  I see them as tracking awareness, not matter.  That would say that at the moment that life began anywhere, awareness began and awareness is of the Universe.  I don’t know if not living objects have awareness, but I would guess that they don’t.  The concept that the existence of matter requires awareness is not new to Buddhists, but I don’t know that the Buddhist Lemmings associate their beliefs with the Big Bang Theory.  I would offer this concept to the Buddhists, but they probably have no faith in me.  Ho hum.
