Question:
Why does man's imagination so outreach his grasp?

The things we can imagine are amazing

Interplanetary Space Travel
Time Travel
Using our Irrelativity drive to jump universes and go to the restaurant at the end of the universe
Shrink things
Live on other planets

But those things are impossible. I mean think of it, if time travel were possible, Hitler would be no more than a footnote in history about a crazy Austrian Corporal who tried a beer haul Putcsh....because someone would have come back and taken him out

And yet our reality is so much more different

We have a junk pile in space that we can't even fly to anymore (we have to hitch a ride with Putin) and we send rc cars to mars.

We can't even get back to the moon

and yet we have all these starry eyed dreamers telling us what is 'Out there"

the imagination of man transcends the natural ability of man......would that be defined as supernatural?

Man is supernatural...he reaches beyond what he can grasp

*And please warn me before you answer with "someday we will...." because I might be drinking coffee and the laughter might make me spew it all over my screen

Living on other planets isn't impossible, and we are capable of returning to the moon. You may want to revise your question, if you can even call it that.

Yet your imagination is limited to magic poofs and talking snakes.



Destroyed again.

I get what you are asking, unlike these clowns........



We were meant to be one with God, I can't fathom the things we would be capable of if we were one with God. But man has become dependent on his own works, and set its imagination on the physical.......which is not real

It's funny that you handicap your own imagination while extolling the fantastic unlimitedness of others'.



Theoretically nothing is impossible. Which is the specific reason the imagination outreaches the physicality of man's mind/ability. Without the theory, nothing would ever progress.

Because without our dreams we are less than human. Because we can imagine, we can learn to explore the possibilities and find solutions. Some things might never be possible, but humans will never stop trying, never stop dreaming, never stop attempting to do the impossible. We have accomplished things our ancestors would have considered miraculous, but we know it was simply hard work and science. I think that is the way it will always be.

You forgot "gods" on your list of imaginary things.

All of which just shows YOUR limited grasp, chanceless one.

Imagination doesn't have to provide working blueprints of anything. Duh.

Hey no joke...Someday we will live on Mars.



"Mars One will establish a permanent human settlement on Mars. Crews of four will depart every two years, starting in 2024. Our first unmanned mission will be launched in 2018. Join the Global Mars One Community and participate in our mission to Mars."

these are things man will be able to do in the next life..................if we are so grateful to our God and obey his laws...all these things will be possible..as of now they are merely a possible
