The secret of the universe

[Robert Oz]

(3^3)x3=81


Don't you mean 3^4=81? Why complicate things?

[six7s]

Don't you mean 3^4=81?No, No and thrice No!

It's all about threes!

$$ 3^3^{\frac{3}{3}} = 81 $$

Why complicate things?Cos its a secret of the Universe!

Gligor Makedonska was famous man.
And yet my search engine can't find a single reference to him anywhere on the internet.

[Aitch]

OK, enough already! I'll probably catch hell from the NWO for this but the secret of the universe is... There Is No Secret! It's all there on plain view, if you look closely enough.

Now stop blathering!

This has been a Public Service Announcement on behalf of the Grumpy Old Men Party.

And yet my search engine can't find a single reference to him anywhere on the internet.

He's secretly famous.

Okay, I'm convinced. 3 is the secret.

Now what?

[Whiplash]

Okay, I'm convinced. 3 is the secret.

Now what?


You turn to the Trinity, isn't it obvious? All these three's everywhere show us the truth of God and the Trinity. It's God's way of giving us clues. Ignore everything else that actually doesn't support him. That's all false clues, demons testing us, etc. Be moved by the fact that three is the secret, and use that knowledge to turn to the power of the trinity! That is the way to salvation!

(no I'm not serious, but I am sure that is what the point of this discussion is for those who believe it).

[six7s]

Okay, I'm convinced. 3 is the secret.

Now what?Go outside and find patterns that confirm the secret, and then tell others; that's how such secrets work, right?

The force of 3 creats the universe without 3 their is not no universe. Two is not enougf and four is not needed. Proof is in the big Bang where 3 took Hubble law and made inflaton work.

Gligor Makedonska has proofen this but their is not any book to shoaw you. He died with no book but I learnd form him to tell story. When I learn more english i will rite book about law of 3. Erery body will learn form this.

Ouch, well you just stopped counting too soon. If we add some number one to your number two, what do we get (other then a flush of the proverbial toilet)?

[Ron_Tomkins]

YES I HAVE THE SECERET IT IS 3. THE NUMBER 3 IS THE EVEERYTHING KEY. All things relateedness to this number. Divide and see the 3/3 is one and then 3x3 is nine and so on. there is no mysery here. The earth is the therd planet and the sun is 3/3 is one sun and so is the galaxy. Mind blowing stuff here! It is not coinceense that the trinity is also three. Divide 3/0 and get infinity __ and that is the universe.

I'm sorry, you were close... but you got it wrong by one. It's actually 4

The secret of the universe is 4. 4 sides of a TIMECUBE (http://www.timecube.com/)

I'd say it was a clever anagram, if I had any faith at all in the author's ability to construct clever anagrams.

Nah - I think it's "Gligor" because s/he has a lisp and can't pronounce "Grigor", "Makedon-" because s/he's from FYROM, and "MakendonSKA" because s/he's a hermaphrodite (Grigor is a male name, but -ska is a feminine suffix).

Sorry to contradict you, but...

One is the loneliest number, worse than two. (http://www.threedognight.com/l_one.html)

3 reigns supreme.

Additional evidence: threesomes. :D

[Skamandros]

Three is only number that is summ of last two numbers. 1 + 2 = 3 Their is no other licke this. It is bases of universes begining you can see for youre self. 4 + 5 = 9 not six and so on. Big bang was 1+ 2 = 3 then was that infalton that Guth made us see out of that plazma.

I'm sorry.
Even allowing for your English (which, I presume, is a second language? Congrats on learning something I've never been able to), I cannot figure out what you are trying to say?

Please, try to re-word this, so we can understand the point you are making.



Three is only number that is sum of last two numbers. 1 + 2 = 3 There is no other like this.


Obviously.
If you add 1 to something, it goes up by 1.
Any other sequential combination of two numbers cannot add up to the next number. Because the next number is only 1 away. And you are adding more than one.

[Bob Klase]

Three is only number that is summ of last two numbers. 1 + 2 = 3 Their is no other licke this. It is bases of universes begining you can see for youre self. 4 + 5 = 9 not six and so on. Big bang was 1+ 2 = 3 then was that infalton that Guth made us see out of that plazma.


Two is the only number that is the sum of the previous number added to itself. 1 + 1 = 2. There is no other like this. Therefore 2 is the basis of the universe's beginning as you can clearly see. 3 + 3 = 6, not four and so on.

But one is the only number which is the product of multiplying by itself. 1 * 1 = 1. There is no other like this. Therefore 1 is the basis of the universe. 3 * 3 = 9, not three and so on.

And since one, two and three have unique properties in all of numberdom, then there must be 3 universes- one of each. Or perhaps 6 universes because the sum of 1 + 2 + 3 = 6.

But the magic number must also be six. Six is the only number which can be obtained by both adding and multiplying 3 consecutive numbers. 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 AND 1 * 2 * 3 = 6. There is no other like this. 2 + 3 + 4 = 9, but 2 * 3 * 4 = 24, not 9! Even more important, six is the only number which is the sum of all the prime numbers which come before it and also the product of all the prime numbers which come before!!!!

I think it is better if you just sing “Three me Skamandros” to the tune of Rock Me Amadeus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Me_Amadeus) in your head while you read his posts.



“He was the third punk ever to set foot on this earth.
He was a genius the third day after his birth.
He could play the numbers like ringing three bells
And ev'rybody screamed:
Come on, three me Skamandros.
He was a superstar, he was Trinamite and however he did (it)
Seemed three, be right.
As he wrangles the math (and) the physics, all third rate,
But then the posters would shout:
Three me Skamandros,
Skamandros, Skamandros, Skamandros
Skamandros, Skamandros, Skamandros
Skamandros, Skamandros, oh oh oh Skamandros”

It is certainly no coincidence that “Rock Me Amadeus” was off the 1985 (1+9+8+5 = 23) album “Falco 3” that peaked at number 3 in the Billboard 200 album charts.

In afrikaans Amadeus rhymes with "I'm a doos."

"doos" in afrikaans translates to vagina or rather the crude version.

OK, now here is proves of the 3:

"The fabric of possibility on the anti-matter could also be considered the 27th dimension when considering scenario of squaring 5 layers to be encased by the super dimensions of the fabric of possibility and the fabric of anti-possibility."

These is form good quantum physisc thinking. See this here.

http://www.haightbeat.com/?p=2120

And think people 27 is 3x3x3 = 27. So now no more funny things the tree is provved!

[Hokulele]

What about the 5 layers?

[aggle-rithm]

I've noticed that the Earth seems to still be in the same, dull old orbit it's always been in.

I figured something would have changed after this great discovery.

[bickerer]

First off, I'm amazed and happy happy happy (3 times happy) that this thread is still going. But how is 3 the "secret" to the universe?? 3 isn't a secret, it's a well known and much loved number. Wouldn't the secret to the universe have to be something that is...um..well...secret? Hidden? Confidential? Wouldn't it?? (I've promised myself not to come back here again...........sigh...........but I probably will.)

[Freethinker]

What about the 5 layers?


Easy: 5=3+3-30 It's got more threeness than three!

[arthwollipot]

No no, it's because the equation 2 + 3 = 5 contains three numerical components!!! Three numerical components plus two symbolic components equals five (5) components in total!!

More proof: How many exclamation marks in that paragraph?

People were completely flabergasted. It took someone from the outside, not restricted by all their theroies and ideas, to see a simple solution they had overlooked.

I went on to great acclaim, media attention and noteriety. I was even on Oprah. Cover of Time. And soooo many groupies.

Did I have a look of "why the hell am I dreaming about you winning again? Who the hell are you, and what the hell are you doing in my dreams?" ?

If so, ya, that was me.

You know, if we can just find one more person who had shared dreaming with us, we'll have three of us. Then we are onto something for sure.

ETA: and have discovered it on page 9. I'm getting shivers.

Actually you were snoring quite loud and an usher had to wake you up.

[Whiplash]

Oh that's right, and I got angry and tried to kick him, but ended up kicking the wall in my bedroom instead. Hard.

The other night I had one of those dreams where an alarm is going off and you can't find it and shut it off. You keep thinking you found it, but it doesn't turn off. You try another. Still nothing. You can't quite tell where it's coming from...

Then you wake up, and find it's your alarm clock. Usually it wakes me quickly. But I must have been really sawing logs that morning.

[Hokulele]

ETA: This was not, in any way, meant to attack the man with the new theories. In fact, it was the whole "surfer dude" does big thing that caught my attention, and reminded me that in my youth, I fantasized about that scenario. Just me, not him, in the lead role! ;)


Heh, I have actually gone surfing and mountain biking with that guy. I have no idea whether or not there is anything to his theories (he explained it to me once, I think I understood maybe 3% of it, hehehehe), but I found it interesting that new theories that may sound wacky at first can gain media exposure, but it requires some substantial backing other than just goofy posts on random internet fora.

So that was you, wow was that usher POed when you kicked him, good thing you woke up.

I haven't used an alarm clock for over a decade myself, I just wake up. Towards the end when I was using one I would usually wake and wait for it to go off. Of course there were a couple of times I thought I woke up but was actually still asleep. Good thing they were on my days off. Funny though, when I was young I couldn’t wake up on time even with the alarm some days and never without it.

I can't even parse that.

Well who can’t resist a “Cosmology” that doesn’t actually involve, well, cosmology? Sounds right up Skamandros’ alley. All parse unto the 3 (or at least 3 of those parses).

Jesus roze in tree days, ...


I know this has been addressed before, but Friday evening to Sunday morning is less than two days. The wording is that Jesus rose "on the third day" makes it sound like three days, but that's counting Friday as the first (calendar) day.

By contrast, if you take a package to UPS on Friday afternoon, and they tell you it will be delivered in three days, don't conclude it will arrive Sunday morning. Actually, it won't even go out until Monday, because you've already missed Friday's pickup. That makes Monday the first day -- oops, no it doesn't, Monday is actually day zero. Your package will be delivered (if you're lucky) three days after that, that is, on Thursday.

The lessons from this are:

1. If you want a package delivered promptly, give it to Jesus.

2. The way UPS counts delivery days is sacrilegious, and the Pope should really think about ordering an excommunication.

3. UPS has three initials in its name. That makes it more powerful than the Pope, which has four letters. That explains why there has been no excommunication, but it does not explain why a three day delivery takes a week if there's a holiday weekend in between.

3. Thursday was named after The Mighty ThorTM. Thor has 4 letters in his name (6 if you count the TM), 2 wings on his helmet, a hammer with a square (4-sided) cross section, 6 strange metallic dots on his torso, and 1 cape. This makes Thor less mighty than UPS, though more mighty than the Pope (hammer breaks crozier, crozier pokes hole in Jell-OTM, Jell-OTM tastes better than hammer).

3. There are 3 objects in the classic game of hammer-crozier-Jell-OTM.

3. There are 3 weeks in a 3-week period. This is very powerful. So powerful that we do not dare have a specific name for such a period. (Unlike "fortnight", "month", "billing cycle" and so forth.) Such a name would, if uttered, or even typed, rock the 3 foundations of the universe.

3. The 3 foundations of the universe are time, money, wire, porn, and vast reaches of space filled with hundreds of billions of galaxies that are so big and so far away as to be absolutely useless.

3. I've decided to name a three-week period a "minimunth."

3. I will soon start a new thread titled "Our Useless Universe" where we discuss ways of adequately expressing how incredibly awesomely mind-bogglingly useless the vast reaches of space and hundreds of billions of distant galaxies that make up our universe are.

OK here is more proofs. It is deep secret of qauntum thery that partickles are from
SU(3) symmettry group. That is majic group of the unvers is three, see that? Poeple do, not see the trees and the threes bause they see only forest. Now what do the funny poeple say? One can not dispiut this fact!

Fair point. I should clarify and show that I can.

I dispiut this fact.

There we go.

Last time I checked, the gauge symmetry group of the Standard Model of Particle physics was SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1).

But I guess 1+2+3 = 6 = 3(3-3/3), so Skamandros must be right!

Yes! But why so much diffiicutness with that thery of 3? When that univers was created with three thing space, time and energy. Tree was the pricniple of creativness evry thing else is detail aspects of the three. 3 gave berth to that univers and guides all thing. SU(3) and all threeness gives space time energy and resultings life.

3:woo

No, the important number is 1

But 1 is the LONELIEST number.....1 is the loneliest number.....

[Richard Masters]

There are no mushrooms. Mars had 3 moons {one fell down people dont now this} There are tree greate citys in Republic of Macedonia the greatest is number three.How is there three braches of US goverment? Take the three gratest galaxies for example -- is there no meaning?
The most bigest mysery is the 3 forces of phisics gravity is not a force it is a negative 3 repulsion that behayves like asn attraction. Learn the mystery of nature.

That's right! 3 x 3 = 9 and if you divide by 11 that's 0.818181818... .

If you think about it further 0.818181818... = 9 / 11 or 9/11 .

There were also 3 twin towers (most people don't know this!)

The number 3 is prime, which means it can be used in encryption!

Also, computers are based on a trinary system! Coincidence!?

Also the Bible is made up an Old Testament, a New Testament, and a Newer Testament (currently in press).

Also, triangles are made up of threes!

Three stooges?

Oh, and 2 + 1 = 3

Sweet. Now, how do I use this knowledge which is the key to the universe?

[Richard Masters]

Three Stooges! ...

Damn! you beat me by more than 3 months!

OK, let's say we accept your theory of 3, what does it do for us? What predictions can be made from it? Does it lead to a car with better fuel-efficiency? Does it tell us how to build a wormhole transporter to take us to different stars? Does it help us feed starving Africans? Does it help us cure AIDS?

Apparently, it leads us to Christianity.

No, I am not making that up, Skamandros made this claim some time back.

What makes Einstein thery gives us? So is the same for 3. univers is oganized by three. it is the deep secret of evrithing. Christianity is maybee result of three or is by mens minds of the three power in the univers. no body knows this but is conection. Gligor Makedonska did study of the powrer of tree and stayed that deep formula of physics is of three. So we have ansewrs when we study this. the univers is results of power of 3!

I refiut that. 3! doesn't mean what you think it means.

[catbasket]

Skamandros, you have now made 33 posts here! Spooky ...

[Evilgiraffe]

Does he have the stamina to make it to 333?
Do we have the stamina to put up with it?

[arthwollipot]

I keep trying to convince people that it's 5, but they don't believe me.

[RoboTimbo]

I keep trying to convince people that it's 5, but they don't believe me.

I believe you, arth. I even credit you with it's discovery. FYROM was a dead giveaway, wasn't it?

[Aitch]

An interesting point (well, I think so ;)) is the fact that people making post titles that are lists tend to have three items in the list; for example (and no doubt there are some that don't):

Marriage, Medical Bills, and Bankruptcy
Contraception, abortion, infanticide
Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters
Bacon/ham/processed meats...

But then, the number three has always had mystical attributes attached to it (see here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three#In_religion_and_mythology)).

Granted, it's an interesting number (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three#In_mathematics), but then again, so is 2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two).

Sorry for resurrecting this thread, but I'm just wasting time before I go shopping. Just realised, I will be visiting the bank (http://www.lloydstsb.com/), Waitrose (http://www.waitrose.com/index.aspx) and WH Smith (http://www.whsmith.co.uk/) - that's three establishments. Coincidence or ... :eek:

[arthwollipot]

Granted, it's an interesting number (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three#In_mathematics), but then again, so is 2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two).And 5 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_(number)#Mathematics) is generated from them both.

[fallout]

it´s 3

[Aitch]

And 5 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_(number)#Mathematics) is generated from them both.

Thanks for that AW - it links to an article on Complete Graphs, which I have been interested in, but didn't know the name of, for some time. I foresee a good few hours reading up on the subject. Mmmm, a prediction - where's my $1M?

[arthwollipot]

Interesting. I've been called Arth, Art, Arf, Wolli, and various misspellings of Arthwollipot, but I think that's the first time anyone's called me AW.

[Aitch]

You mean you're not Arthur, 4th Earl Wolli-Pot; of the Berkshire Wolli-Pots? I do apologize! ;)

[arthwollipot]

That depends - is there a large unclaimed inheritance in that name?

[Aitch]

Well, I believe that the death duties, overdraft and mortgages add up to quite a lot. :)

[arthwollipot]

Then no, that's not me.
:scarper:

[Skamandros]

First was singularaty then, came that big bang. Three was infaltion which is the secret of that univirse. So again we have proove of the three. That was triagel of creation.

[Hokulele]

The Big Bang is the inflation. You are down to two.

[arthwollipot]

And three plus two is five! Like I've been saying all along!
