no... not you.... talking bo**ocks.... its the English way of saying bs.....

The easiest way to kick that one over is to try and count the number of UNinhabited worlds instead, as we know only a finite number of THEM exist as well. Therefore by the same logic, there are no uninhabited worlds.

As most leading philosophers would say, it was a load of dingo's kidneys...

This is a simple argument that has been finalized quite some time ago - the shape of the universe.

The density of the universe also determines its geometry. If the density of the universe exceeds the critical density, then the geometry of space is closed and positively curved like the surface of a sphere. This implies that initially parallel photon paths converge slowly, eventually cross, and return back to their starting point (if the universe lasts long enough). If the density of the universe is less than the critical density, then the geometry of space is open, negatively curved like the surface of a saddle. If the density of the universe exactly equals the critical density, then the geometry of the universe is flat like a sheet of paper. Thus, there is a direct link between the geometry of the universe and its fate.

i understand NO single word of what you have just said 🙁
translation plz?

I'm just talking about the shape of the universe - people are blabbling on about how it is infinite - it IS infinitie IN A SENSE, but not fully.

How do you divide by something that isn't a number?

I'll let you tell them the universe's biggest imports and exports....

I shall:

Imports: None: It is impossible to import things imto an infinite area, there being no outside to import things in from.

Exports: None: See Imports

You tell 'em aboot sex.

the universe is NOT infinite.

What comes after universe?

my sister is doing a-level phisics at skewl and she throughs stuff like this at me all the time it makes my head hurt 🙁

universe group.
then omniverse
then multiverse
then megaverse

well...your first two statements are not proven.
if one was to assume the universe is infinite, why would there not be an infinite number of inhabitated worlds?
or the exact opposite.

and...even if for the sake of argument we would consider the universe infinite and the inhabitated worlds not infinite in number.
by dividing the two..you'd only get the size of the enhabitated worlds compared to the size of the univarse.....a weird form of percentage...
solved by mathematical limits. it goes for 0....which is logical

no finite things of unequal length can exist within an infinite amount of that thing.

Goddammit, this is a joke. Its from a book, a good one too.

Thank you Bardock!!! At least someone got it.... although it is funny watching all these guys argue about it....

well it's the philosophy forum
