Please don't think im crazy, I was just bored and my mind was wandering so i wrote this as i thought about it. Keep in mind that i did no post-editing. once i was done, i spellchecked it and posted it here so there are surely a few grammatical errors or poorly worded sentences, bu i did my best. I looked it up on google, im not the first person to have considered this, but these are simply my thoughts with no other input at all. well heres the thing:
Is Heaven the same place as the 4th Dimension?
Human nature makes us fascinated in what we cannot understand. For thousands of years, the concept of an afterlife, or more specifically, a heaven, has both amazed and confused us. How can we believe what we cannot see or scientifically prove? How can something, such as God, be all around, in everything, always, yet we do not see His divine presence. Well, it can all be scientifically proven, in fact, starting with a simple line.
A line is simply a length, a concept known as the first dimension. The first dimension doesn’t have width or depth like our third dimension we know. The second dimension is much like a geometric plane. It has an infinitely small (or nonexistent) depth, but it has length and width. Once you incorporate depth, you have our 3rd dimension we live in every second of every hour of every day. Now, imagine a freeze frame of our 3rd dimension, a “3d picture” of our universe. Now, take many different pictures of this universe, each one just barely different from the last, and out of them, create a movie of our third dimension. This 3d movie is the 4th dimension. The 4th dimension is, simply put, the 3rd dimension at each different moment in time. When you go for a walk through the 3rd dimension, you simply change your position in our universe, and in the 3rd dimension. However, if you were to go for a walk through the 4th dimension, rather than changing your position, you change your place in time.
Nobody likes losing a loved one, but the possibility of an afterlife gives us hope that we may one day reunite with them in heaven. But why, if we believe we will reunite with them, do we get so sad when someone dies? The answer is that we cannot be absolutely 100% sure that there is an afterlife in which we will see them again. If we truly were 100% confident that we would see them again, why would we get sad knowing they’re in heaven, and that it’s not really the end, and that we will defiantly see them again? In fact, we CAN be 100% they are not truly gone. They still exist; you guessed it, in the 4th dimension. Take this example. Say you’re driving down the freeway, when you come to the start of a guardrail on the side of the road. You continue driving for a few minutes, and eventually, you reach the end of the guardrail, and continue driving on. Now that the guardrail has passed, would you say it no longer exists? Of course not! While it may be back behind you now, if you really wanted to see it again, you could simply turn around and head back to it. Now apply this to the 4th dimension, with the guardrail representing life. Just because you are now living in a point in the 4th dimension that is beyond the life of your loved one doesn’t mean they no longer exist, they just exist “back behind you” in the 4th dimension. If you were able to turn around and head the other direction in the 4th dimension (which, indeed, is traveling back in time), you could obviously meet up with your lost loved one. How does this apply to heaven? Well, heaven is a place for souls who no longer walk the earth, who have moved on. Technically, the 4th dimension holds EVERY SINGLE PERSON who has ever died. Ever. And they will ALWAYS exist in the 4th dimension. That sounds like a near word for word definition of heaven if you ask me. When you die, you will still physically exist, just in a different dimension exist. Not only that, but since you are now just a part of the 4th dimension, you will exist in some strange, unknown form that isn’t human, much like is believed to be the case with spirits in heaven.
Another part of heaven that can be explained by the 4th dimension is the concept of deities; passed souls with superior abilities to us as humans, and an apparent ability to watch over their living descendents, as well as the rest of the world. Think about if YOU existed in the 4th dimension. You could indeed visit any when and where you wanted to. Walk one way and you’ll be heading into our future, walk the other and you can observe our ancient past. If heaven really is the 4th dimension, the spirits that reside there would indeed have full control over time and also be able to watch their sons, daughters, and grandchildren fulfill their lives, much like the person in the past example was fully capable of stepping out of the car and going to any point on the guard rail behind them that they felt like.
One major problem with a belief in an afterlife and a heaven, however, is the lack of proof. “If there is a heaven, why haven’t we seen it yet?” you may be asking. Well, the lack of proof in and of itself is not only proof that it exists, but proof that heaven and the 4th dimension are the same place. We cannot see the 4th dimension, but we are indeed living in it. If we weren’t, nothing would happen. Nothing is capable of moving or doing anything at all without time (the 4th dimension) to allow it to happen over a period of time. So, much like we are told in church about God, the 4th dimension is always present and part of everything, everywhere, every time.
While we can’t be sure, it’s hard to deny that there are some seriously close similarities between the heaven we are told about and the 4th dimension we know exists. I hope all of you who read this didn’t get too bored, death is always a topic that scares me, and applying a little science to it makes the afterlife seem a little more real in my opinion and in a strange way I get comfort from thinking that maybe, just maybe, Heaven is in fact the 4th dimension.
