Ok....I'll lead...

I was wrong a couple of years ago.

@*HooooeyVagina asked me where I believed surveys of Presidential scholars would rank the Biden presidency.

I suggested he would be ranked in the low to mid 20s.

@*HooooeyVagina was right to scoff at my prediction.

I was wrong.

An example of something being "right".

Scientists basically agree on a couple of universal truths.
1) Big Bang Theory - 13 billion years ago the universe was a speck of unimaginable energy. Hence, the origin of The Bang.
2) Observable Universe - We can only "see" as far 13 billion light years because light further out than that hasn't had time enough to reach us yet. As such we don't know how much further any limit to the universe actually is.

So, the Big Bang, 13 billion years ago, is predicated on running the "movie" of the universe in reverse and projecting its age.
How do we know this would ever end if we don't know the actual limit?
The "movie" running in reverse may never stop if there isn't any limit to the universe. We haven't seen that limit.

The best we can say is the universe is at least 13 billion years old. It may have no age at all.
What is right when you only "know" just so much...?

Admitting you may have learned something because a post got you thinking is not a sign of weakness.
I PG'd a couple of your posts because you can't seem to grasp the slightest hint of that notion.
