Have any of you pondered eternal recurrence? What are your thoughts? By Eternal Recurrence, I mean either: (A) The Universe is simply repeating the same events over and over (You and I have live this life unfathomable times before) or (B) the Universe repeats over and over but each time is a random and the outcomes/situations may be different

I wouldn't be that harsh. Simply because we cannot test a hypothesis doesn't mean we should exclude it from consideration (this is a conspiracy forum after all). From our extremely limited understanding the idea seems far fetched, but given we have no definitive understanding of the universe, or what lies beyond, who knows
I guess I am just bitter as it would never ever provide anything slightly tangible with any input one can provide in the current world.
I personally see it as another scapegoat based on the big bang line of thinking. Another ridiculous hypothesis that has led to decades of bad work producing no valid results just more bad guesswork.
All of it is a logical fallacy, the more likely reality is plasma cosmology if we want to push any borderline thinking, here at least we can test our theories produce results and backing for the claims made.
I haven't heard of plasma cosmology. I enjoy considering these "more.exotic" theories but I concede that a lack of understanding doesn't mean ANY theory is possible. Scapegoat thinking is an interesting point. I often think these theories should be paired with the philosophical impact upon humanity
I am nearly offended you are digging into a hypothesis such a recurrence when plasma cosmology (electric universe) exists as a much more sound alternative to the big bang theory.
Especially with respect to a philosophical impact. For me I think it would be easy to be unhappy with the results of the money spent searching for dark matter and black holes, never mind the profound impact of such belief systems forced upon society by leading figures.
If nothing else this topic introduced me to plasma cosmology. I watched a short 10min video on it and plan to explore the topic further.
What do you think about reincarnation?
