Some interesting points are there in this thread in the past posts.

@General relativity : I read it says that things get attracted towards mass not because of some force but because the mass curves the spacetime itself. Something like if F = m* (change in space)/(square of change in time) doesnt mean that some force caused the change in spacetime, but it means that the change in spacetime itself created an illusion of a force.

The above explanation may be slightly off because equations of general relativity are complex anyway to be explained here. Even small parts take around 1 page. Occam's razor will choke after seeing those equations.

@Black holes: There is no proof that they exist. All we have is indirect evidence and for direct evidence people are building gravitation wave detectors. These detectors need to be very sensitive to the order of 10 ^ -31, etc.

Also its said that when something goes inside the black hole then to an outside observer it seems that the time has slowed-stopped for the thing falling inside. So how does it look like ftom the perspective of someone falling in a black hole? (assuming if that entity is not dead already) It could be like time speeding up. If this is true then black hole might contain all the information with them in a fast forward manner.

However, many things about black holes are theoretical and after we have gravitation waves detectors then we will start to know more about them.

It appears so. And it's very frustrating. Some people believe in something blindly. I can't do that. My reasoning doesn't allow me to do so. So I am kinda stuck. If I go toe-to-toe at the snail's pace at which Science seems to be moving, I might never know the answer. Let's see how it goes in the next couple of _____.

God is unfalsifiable. So is a multiverse as of now.

We often think in terms of Gods creating us; but in truth it is we who create our gods! Sensing our purest qualities -but unable to accept this vision as self-we project them onto a 'god' or goal outside. Anthropomorphism-personalizing or humanizing abstract qualities (to better understand them) - is the basis of mythology. The abstract is given life -the intangible is made tangible thru name, form history- enabling mankind to use these symbols to better understand what is beyond words.

The physicality of us (even the universe for that matter) is insignificant. I am evaluating, as we speak, (๐Ÿ˜Š) how significant (or insignificant) the concept behind this physicality is.

There has to be some significance for such an elaborate design ๐Ÿ˜Š
