Can you identify an opinion that you personally hold dear that is wrong?

"GOD sees everything!" Well, in looking around the 'punishment colony' that passes for life on this planet of late...perhaps there is no god. The 'creator' is perhaps an absentee landlord...and we are in his image. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...ein_tongue.jpg<"God does not play dice with the universe"-meets the Manhattan Project" ATTN: Alex In your case, my sig quote fits perfectly: Galileo (looking through his scope? at the universe)... meets the Inquisition...preferring Copernicus ie human stupidity-usually lethal when chained to religious doctrine.)

Is there anything that is not part of the spatiotemporal world?

One would have to first define and bound what the "spatiotemporal world" is.

DONE! Well since the past creates the present ..it would have to be the future if someone violates the prime directive in the here and now! http://www.animateit.net/data/media/...zahao1_500.gif ATTN :subsim: Do not even attempt this infallible logic :O: unless you have watched StarTrek since the beginning- U may however Live Long http://www.animateit.net/data/media/201/Anim_hand.gif and help Neal prosper;:yeah: however...REMEMBER RULE 1 http://www.animateit.net/data/media/...arkferengi.gif:http://www.animateit.net/data/media/201/Anim_resist.gif http://www.animateit.net/data/media/...4d0a1b16ef.gif https://www.inverse.com/article/19326-space-psychology-nasa-astronauts-mental-health-mars

"God does not play dice with the universe"

However He may by design have allowed the universe to play dice.

Not Much: http://www.techinsider.io/physics-einstein-got-wrong-2015-11 Considering that the Manhattan Project launched with a letter by Einstein to FDR is about to bite us in the ass with Iran and N. Korea acquiring the 'bomb' ...and even E = mc2

If that is truly the bounding definition of Spatiotemporal, then I would imagine that there is a lot of stuff that ain't SpatioTemporal in nature.... my imagination for one. :D

I feel that this definition actually encompasses a rather small set of stuff.....my feelings not being one of them. :D:D

I believe there are more things that exist outside that boundaries....such as my beliefs. :D:D:D

Can there be necessarily existent entities?
