Born too late to explore the earth, and born too early to explore the galaxies. I'm Fucked.
True
Explore yourself. The human psyche is the universe.
Dont worry youre 2 stupid to do anything anw
The human is the universe
@@yangasidziya3245 these kind of foolish religious blabbering isn't going to help us even conquering our own solar system let alone a galaxy😂
People are too busy arguing which race of humans is going to get the most instead of coming together as one group of people to grow. Just imagine what 7.5 billion people could do working together for a common goal of advancing humanity to the next level instead of working against each other.
Thank you
humanity was fighting against each others since the beginning of time but we still evolve and thrived even with all of that. So, don't worry we always find away and we will thrive
yeah but liek 1000 people want to be above everyone so we all gotta suffer.
There will always be some bastards who always act bossy. No matter what race it is. Usually they could manipulate others to join their evil cause. And if all others agreed to just ignore those bastards and move on with advancement and humanity wellbeings,we will thrive 100%
We have to get rid of the terrorists tho because they would rather build tunnels for weapons instead of schools and hospitals.
Imagine we're an experiment from a type 7 civilization 😂
😂😂
We are. That's the messed up part.
I guess there must be a type 8 civilization shaking its head and thinking "when will these upstart type 7's ever learn? I forgive them, for they know not what they do".
@@fred_2021 deadass XD
this comment gave me anxiety 😂
The most important thing is that we become civilization type 2, i.e. that we can use all of the sun's energy. From this point onwards, we can spread throughout the universe at will and apply the same principle to every solar system. In this way, we scale almost boundlessly into the universe, decentralize ourselves and become immortal because no catastrophic event can affect all of humanity. Not even dangers emanating from our own sun. I love the Kardashev Scale. 😅 Keep up the great work and greetings from Cosmic Wisdom!
we will implode before that happens..We have too many uneducated HUMANS ON THIS PLANET INCLUDING HERE IN REDSTATES. ELITES WANT IT THAT WAY...FACTS..
the cancel culture will be the end of us. we will end ourselves by taking offence for the behalf of other s and simply because we value some more equal than others.
great... then they'll cry about the cooling of the sun....
With the current world situations I doubt we could make it to type one without someone getting offeneded
Let's face it we are a pestilence we would corrupt everywhere we go, the first time we visit another planet we would try to conquer it or exploit it
The only way humanity can transition from type 0 to type 1 is eliminating politics and candy corn
Politics I'll agree with you on, but I draw the line at candy corn.
@@robinchesterfield42more like politics and money. I don't understand why to save humanity or advance it, it costs money. "A 300m sized asteroid is heading towards Earth in 10 years!" It'll cost 450 billion to build a laser large enough to destroy it!" Like what the hell??
And Peeps
We've ready achieved a very important step towards type 1. We've eliminated Twinkies.
it's because there are finite resources, so to build that, it costs that much $ (Respective to the cost of resources used)@@AlphaMaleG17
So inspiring and at the same time, these ideas make me feel sad that I'll never know/see much of even type 1 because I'm old already. I wish that humanity will go on and thrive and continue the fantastic journey ahead.
Thing is, we all should find ways to be grateful for the life we have, for the air we breathe, for the green trees and the beautifully blue sky. We should be grateful and happy for all of the days of our lives. We don't need anything more to live our happy lives. Our goal is to live not to achieve some kind of goal.
Things will not change even after 200 years.
Your sadness is unjustified. 500 years ago people would have "died" to see automobiles, airplanes, robots, rockets, medical advancements, modern hospitals, cellphones, satellites, submarines, radio, TV, internet, etc. The bottom line is, people never seem to be happy with the current state of affairs no matter how much progress has been made, demonstrating a lack of historical context of current affairs as compared with the past. So, 500 years from now you would still feel sad not to be able to see how amazing the world will be 10,000 years from now, and so on.
IF it will be amazing. Humans have a tendency to do outlandish and, dare I say, utterly stupid stuff. I am glad, to at least, have the freedom to imagine what the future might look like. @@dpactootle2522

Maybe once you reach the point of type VII, if you get board with nothing more to obtain, you go back to Type 0 to experience it, again. Maybe, we've already done this.

@@robinchesterfield42 I really enjoyed this quote. Very interesting! Thank you for your reply!
I might believe that, but then again we will never become a type 3 in my brain.
The more we know, the more we know we don't know. I believe at that point we'll have a much wider horizons than we have now.
What if we can’t progress to multiuniversal level because we are just a universe created by a type 7 civilisation
Things wont change for humans even if they learn to colonize the entire universe. We would still be looking for more.
We're such babies
@@Chic_Kenwe are weak we are not smart we are not even TYPE 1 in 3B years of geting better
And still stupidly Tribal!
People have forgot what being human is. Human nature is loving and caring. Our leaders have lied to us for thousands of years. The problem isn't wanting more. The problem is we believe our leaders. Human nature comes to the surface in survival situations. In groups, someone always offers their life to feed the group.

Agree with this comment I must
@@perilousturtle2171 interesting
You are already
The idea of a monkey understanding magic is the equivalent of me understanding how they got a Dyson sphere to handle the gravitational pull of the sun while being so close to it
Let alone how it wouldn't melt from such heat, or solar flares destroying something like a Dyson sphere
A Dyson sphere is really a Dyson swarm of billions of energy collecting satellites orbiting the sun.
@@TheDarkLasombrathat would probably span around mercury around the sun
Well Dyson sphere would have an equal push to counter the gravity which is very possible with the proper energy source. As for melting well there are metals that can with stand extreme temperatures sure we'd need another metal source which we could find out there or create gravitational force fields that create a protection around the structure and help with the heat and other objects.
Orbit is falling. If gravity is too strong, fall faster! lol The gravitational influence of the other planets would probably mean either A the sphere would have to be built to encompass the entire solar system. Or we would need to mine the other planets out of existence. The temperature of space is absolute 0. Anything built outside of our goldilocks zone wouldn’t get warm enough to melt ice cream let alone whatever alloy we possess by then
I don't know if I'm the only one who thinks this way, but humans are probably going to go extinct with our own wrong choices. So far, we've developed with human curiosity and the ability to imagine the invisible, but that's it. Even a single mistake leads to nuclear war, and humans are over. These emotions, such as human greed, selfishness, jealousy, and anger, become more and more deadly to ourselves as technology advances. The reason is that the destructive power of weapons is incomparable to the present.
Man, type V and type VI are god-like powers 🔥🔥🔥
There are much higher types 🪐👽

There is not higher power than God !!!
@@skyterror77postman47Heard that. I believe when we die we will eventually make it to a higher consciousness eventually and be able to experience these higher beings lives and their tech. We are baby souls in a sense, come to Earth to learn and shape the soul with pain.
using natural disasters as energy producers in type 1 alone is already a crazy plan like... there is a huge, i mean... MASSIVE advantage for that if used with right and sturdy huge devices/equiptments for it not to mention using tectonic collision or an active volcano for engineering is already an insane idea which just basically means that type 1 is where energy is as essential as oxygen
We must live. O
I thought about that, what I've we constantly caused hurricanes or never ending hurricanes to harness power. That would be insane.
I’m a Christian and I still think all this fits and works with my faith. Just getting closer to the source.
Me too. I just don't believe we progress to these higher stages of civilization without God's power. We'll get an upgrade in civilization when Christ returns.
I believe that civilisation won’t even exist when Jesus comes back because all good people go to heaven & all bad go to hell. God’s Kingdom that I believe would be leaded by Jesus and that is the only civilisation. We’ll probably go back to the past but in a good way, we would be perfect with Jesus. Our civilisation would be in the past, but bad things removed and death will no longer exist. And I’m Christian
@ALL Please check my assumptions, formulae, and calculations Formula for the area of a sphere = 4πr^2. Assume Dyson Sphere with radius of Earth’s orbit = 150,000,000 km (93,000,000 miles) Area of that sphere = 2.82743×10^17 km^2 (square kilometers) Assume sphere is 1km thick = 2.82743×10^17 km^3 (cubic kilometers) For general reference the volume of Jupiter = 1.431281x10^15km^3 Just guessing that the volume of all the rest of the planets and all other asteroids/comet/dwarf planets, including Oort Cloud (out to 3.2 light years), is less than that of Jupiter (and certainly not more than 200 times as great). With those estimates, there is not enough material by volume to even make a Dyson Sphere using all the non-solar matter in the entire solar system.
Type 4 and up is where we transfer our souls into a super computer and control everything around us. We would be able to live forever creating our reality around us.

Humans are incredible. We appeared approximately 100,000 years ago. From hunter gatherers to farmers took us 90,000 years. From farmers to industrialists: 10,000 years To achieve atomic power: 200 years To advance to Information Age (computers): 50 years This compound model means we will reach type 1 in 100 years, and type 2 in 1000 years
Hahah same theory from 3 body problem 👀

Thank you so much for sharing such fascinating videos about the mysteries of the universe! I'm always in awe of the wonders that exist beyond our planet.
estoy de acuerdo contigo.
Our speed to becoming Type-1 will exponentially increase the day we build our first robust quantum computer and hook it up to an advanced AI system.
I totally agree with you on this.
Or it will destroy us completely, because people fear changes und unpredictable things. We just don't know for sure, what will happen then. It ranges from "Skynet will sent terminators after us" to "it helps us to overcome all our differences and lift us up". And sincecwe don't know, people will fight over the simple "should we do this?". Maybe we, as a species, will thrive after that war to come.
😂😂😂
oh no
You base this conjecture upon what? We have no idea how an AI would even think much less what they would do. The one thing we can take comfort in is that they would not think like us. Most of the qualities that humans posses that are considered negative are remnants of a system designed to survive scarcity at all cost. Hence greed, avarice, thievery, deception, etc. all become baked into our genome because no matter how much it has cost us in the past, those action will have helped survival. An AI would not have that basis to work on. It would not even necessarily prioritize it's personal survival and would certainly display no need for excess. Most of our fears about AI presume they will be like us but better at it, including the negative parts. A true AI is a fascinating prospect but even the learning algorithms of today are a long way from it. Simply adding more processing power will allow it to learn defined tasks with ever greater efficiency but it won't give them the spark of sapience.

In some previous year we used to think creating ai is also impossible, which is now reality, i think in some year ai will develop so much that this is really possible.
We will of not the robots will
We will of not the robots will
just Getting to a Type 1 would be unreal
to us of this day and age yes, but just like the way our society functions and the tech we have today is normal to us yet unreal to those 1000 years ago, so it will be once we are a type 1 civilization. That will be normal at that time, as it was a gradual progression to reach that point. this is why going back in time is not a good idea. Even the lowest and most beginner of scientists and doctors of today would be seen as devils and witches and slaughtered for their knowledge if they were able to skip to a thousand years in the past or even a few hundred years. Our societies can only advance as much as the general population will accept. This is such a tradgity, as progression is held back in this way and brilliant people are murdered for their abilities to progress by leaps and bounds as superstition and the disruption of the "norm" is viewed as intolerable and evil.
It would be so interesting if the supposed aliens that are visiting us are much more intelligent scientifically but much less humanly. What if they are studying us to learn how to have emotions and love.
If they are MUCH more intelligent it will be the same as men vs monkeys. Is there any aspect of monkey's existence that you take as an example for how to live your life?! NO, you don't. Cause you're MUCH more intelligent. If those aliens will eventually arrive, we will never be more then pets for them. It's simple logic
Never thought it that way around. Great point 😊
It's so refreshing to see another who sees emotions this way. I think that's why we're here, to feel these emotions and learn. Plenty of love in the presence of God but there must be balance. Earth is where people hurt each other. Earth is pain. Earth is Hell.
The poor guys would be baffled because we forgot how to love... at least most of us and the only emotions we experience every day are the bad ones.
I am currently reading a book where a person channeling (deep meditation) an alien in the Orion constellation. This book exists, I'm not kidding. They live on the mothership (not only) above their planet on a invisible plane to us. They know everything about us, and they don't show themselves to us on purpose, because they have a simulation of our planet with all the human emotions and reactions and when two such differently advanced species get together they said we will go crazy. Therefore, they deliberately stay away, as our consciousness is not capable of receiving/processing such information. They know we're looking for them and don't answer on purpose. The book answers many, many questions about us and our evolution.
The idea of terraforming all asteroids, moons and planets seems delulu & AWESOME and i like it😃
Imagine earth was actually created by someone in a type IV civilisation doing a KZhead video 💀 “creating a planet with life and seeing what happens”
I haven’t heard the words ‘could’, ‘might’ and ‘possibly’ this many times since l drunkenly watched an episode of ‘Ancient Aliens.’
Those words r what keep this from being a prophecy. If that's what you want try the bible.
Kardashev scale is based on a total utopic concept. There are many stages between our actual state and type 1. About the rest stages...are quite impossible to attain.
How are they impossible? Type-2 and 3 is very possible.
I'm almost 30 years old and people talk about how by 2040 the world will be like Cyberpunk, I'll wait another 17 years to see if this world will become Cyberpunk or if it will return to an era like WWII with WWIII. Nowadays, not only children but also adults are too dreamy about the future instead of taking care of themselves in the present.
because its a utopia. @@voidtempering8700
the only impossible is the limits you place on yourself. You absolutely can NOT place such limitations on others. What may be impossible to YOU may be easily achievable to another.
Not impossible, currently humans are so primitive. We can't even detect or fully understand a type 3 , 4 , 5 civilization yet .
The thing that matters the most is being able to control our bodies and evolution. Curing all diseases, genetic engineering, and immortality are the whole grail because without it nobody can feel powerful knowing you can get sick or die of old age while losing your strength, youthful appearance, and beauty (whatever that means to you).
Yeah except this technology wouldn’t be available to normal people. Look at what’s going on in the world today, it wouldn’t be for the benefit of humanity.
immortality is a very bad idea. although we all would want it, death is the ultimate fail-safe. can you imagine an immortal hitler or something like that? ppl always see the utopia of it, not the uglyness, so hell no. besides, if whole universes die, a punny human will to.
You are an idiot. Imagine Albert Einstein living forever, Beethoven, Mozart, Leonardo Davinci, or Isaac Newton. Why do morons only think about the negatives like Hitler and bullshit like that?

There’s a ton of energy in all matter I believe that when we figure out how to use it we won’t be using solar and wind anymore. It’s fun to imagine but I don’t think it’s a very accurate way of scaling.
If your house gets dark in the winter to absorb heat from the Sun and shiny white in the Summer to reflect heat, you already uses 25% of the energy your house requires. Solar and wind can be used in so many ways, not only the ways someone can make money out of those ways. There's cooling effect of air drift used the proper way. Whatever turbine you need to buy to produce electricity from air drifts, then convert that electricity to cooling your house, it's just a waste of energy.
I feel like “magic” could be real if humans are somehow able to utilize energy and actually manipulate it. Kinda like telekinesis in a sense. Although I might be way off
You know when I watch or play sci fi series like Ben 10 or Warhammer 40k I always wonder what type of civilization some of the alien species that are in those franchises are

Thanks Paul!
Please read the whole thing if you wanna clearly understand why a type 2 civilisation is impossible. I think it is impossible to go beyond a type 1 civilization. I don't think building a Dyson sphere is possible because it would have to be much bigger than the sun and should cover the whole sun and that much material is not at all available on Earth and if we were to use other planets' resources, we still would need to build a Dyson sphere. So if I simply put it together, we would need a our sun to be covered in a Dyson sphere even to get the materials for Dyson sphere. And also another thing to note: We can't extract resources from Neptune, Uranus, Jupiter and Saturn and even if these planets had the ability to be exploited they would still not provide enough resource to provide for a Dyson Sphere the size of Jupiter. And we would have to get it from other planets but to go to other planets, you need the sun's energy and how do you get that? A Dyson Sphere! And even if you were to consider building a Dyson sphere in other solar systems with much more planets and resources the star holding them in orbit would also be bigger. So technically speaking, whichever galaxy or whichever solar system you take it is impossible to build a Dyson Sphere so a Type 2 Civilisation is impossible as far as we have seen in the observable universe and laws of physics unless we discover another universe with physical laws and dimensions.
So basically we will never reach level 2 , it is impossible to build Dyson sphere due to lack of materials … even if we spend all raw materials of every single planet on our solar system we won’t have enough materials to create so large sphere to collect the entire sun energy …
Oh you know, we use make impossibly thin and impossibly strong materials using all the energy we accumulated from the earth. And why do we need that much energy for what?
I don't think it's impossible we can probably mine astrieods in the ort cloud to construct it
If we have a machine that can put us to sleep for 100 years, then we could probably enjoy the life of type 1 civilization
Thank you for this awe-inspiring and informative video! Will definitely watch again (and probably, again!) 🤩

We have to simply take it this way. If an alien civilization comes to visit us, we should simply pray that they do not look at us as what we will be to them : mere insects.
If a alien race is advanced enough to reach us it’s probably bc they are a well behaved species so unlikely will attack us

13:57 being this advanced I want to believe we’d find away to recycle every bit of energy we use.
The only quicker way I see things happening is in the realm of bodily transformation of intelligent creatures to be able to infiltrate and travel through the space and time. Use of energy at larger scale with the infrastructure based on current technologies is simply Mega Sizing ( Sizing things up). For the efficient use new creatures may benefit directly from radiations and infact, intelligently be able to consume and generate matter and logical structures based on new matter such as DNAs, Molecular Nanochips, Unique Atomic Matter States that can resonate and connect with any scale of energies to harvest it. For instance fission is just producing heat energy and photons, but what if a extreme cold matter state can be unravelled in a controlled manner to provide condensates with serious results that can be harvested to generate flying space carpets for transportation. Ofcourse anything is possible but only if we try!
Dyson spheres are nosense if you build a megastructure around a star what happens to it's light? You won;t have light because the megastructure will surround the star so no sunlight
The Dyson is build to utilize the energy coming from stars. It's not stopping anything its just utilizing what is already shining. You can put your hands around the sun but you can't block the light of the sun that's how Dyson spheres are. Sun glows from within not from outside.
That structure will provide you now controlled power...
Good comment. Yeah, the issue of photosynthesis would have to be mitigated, for one. I wonder if most people take this into account.
When talking about a Type-II xivilization, we are usually referring to a dyson swarm. Trillions of orbital habitats that revolve around the star. This theoretical swarm could hold quadrillions of people.
In future, this might be a necessity

Missing from all the definitions is the notion of minimising system entropy through various forms of high-yield resource regeneration/reuse where the system boundary would relate to the region of maintainable control, and the scale of the civilisation would relate to the log volume of that region.

I never cease to be amazed at how people, with enviable stubbornness and unshakable confidence, bordering only on religious faith, continue to talk about hypothetical theories as something taken for granted. As if it had been proven and confirmed by something other than beautiful generated pictures and someone’s, again, hypothetical fantasies. Honestly! The whole video tells me that I need to do this, do that, in order to advance along the path of hypothetical development, in, to put it mildly, an unconfirmed theory, which, without even confirming its basics, is already constructing derivatives on derivatives of itself! Moreover, the very fact that this theory does not imply any deviations from the general line makes one doubt its scientific nature.And the confidence with which not only the existence of all civilizations (starting somewhere with the third) is affirmed in one form and not any another, and strictly following the straight line of a given development - borders on religious insanity! Give me back my 24 minutes of life.
This doesn’t sound as realistic as I hoped, it sounds more like a sci-fi video. How can you control a planet in all resources as power but not understand that you can transfer energy, so anything after the first civilization is sci-if instead of theoretical science, because the first world should be able to recycle compounds and mixture, therefore never running out of resources. Intern, after they’ve maximize their recyclability of all these compounds and mixtures they move on “ bigger brighter things”.
Air/space travel was also sci-fi for people in 15th century..not too back..
All science is fiction until it is eventually realized or made possible.
Just wandering if dyson star would make orbiting planets gone cold if their star was completely covered up.
A civilization that is creating a Dyson Sphere would probably disassemble the planets in their solar system as raw materials. All asteroids, comets, dust, etcetera would be needed to create the Dyson Sphere. They might need the materials from neighboring stars as well.
Remember the phx lights? The big alien spacecraft im sure was advanced civilization that came to visit us in 1997
I’m tryna put myself in cryo sleep for the next 400 years
With such barbaric wars still happening, I highly doubt we’d go anywhere at this point. There’s a large portion of the planet that loves the “stability” of the dark ages 🙄
You mean a bunch of barbarians, led by tyrant, Monarchs, that staked a claim on EVERY portion of the world, and their preemptive rights to claim ALL of the known land, and even the unknown land held by those other people, that look, and sound a little different, yet for you to have ANY chance at continuing to exist, you are required to put that very existence on the line, in Service to a king and Country, where if victorious the kings fortune and territory will grow, and if you are bestowed a corner to live, its at the kindness of a generous Monarch, who has already, assessed the taxes you will contribute, including the title to the land, and ANY improvements, or. the production you can cultivate from it! And depending on the sphere of your king's influence or the weight of his ego, you may be 1 in 100, or 1 in 10,000, ready to fight and die on command or kill as many of them who are just like you, seeking a corner to exist, in peace, and even if different in appearance, or belief, if they were your neighbor you would not go out to kill them, because they are NOT like you, but would naturally help your neighbor prosper, because cooperation is universal and the more prosperity you can place between you and disparity, doesn't require plundering and murder, just a place that is your own. At least in the Dark Ages, the King Rode into battle, If one wanted the current Tyrant to take a hike you could send him out for Ice Cream and forget to tie his shoes! Or just tell him he didn't actually win the last election he won't remember anyway, I just wonder if he would consider Kamala one of the well spoken clean ones?
One of the key components that videos like this overlook is the value of conscious and spiritual evolution. Which is what your comment is ultimately identifying a lack of conscious and spiritual evolution Most humans on this planet are taught to separate technological evolution from conscious evolution and this is a mistake. For example if you give gunpowder/TNT to a cave man he will most likely have a similar approach as the world has had towards nuclear fission, a world where everyone is on the brink of annihilation due to an adolescent need to practice hyper individualism fear and arrogance. At this stage humans are on a low frequency where they only see that everyone is connected and equal in the eyes of death but not in the eyes of life. Imagine if humans were to combine fear arrogance and hyper individualism with say Gravity technology or concepts of Dimensional physics, humans would be in a position to initiate a star holocaust and destroy the whole solar system as opposed to just destroying the earth as is the case today. Technology advancement without the wisdom of spiritual and conscious advancement can lead to major global and solar disasters. Pride and ego keeps quite a few people ftom accepting this and if you attempt to teach them, they are resdy to crucify you just like what happened to Jesus.
Tell that to the warmongers in Washington.
Man would destroy the universe if he had this much power as far as the types of civilization go we can't even respect Gaia yet let alone live together as one civilization?
15:45 battery at 1%... totally worth it - must evolve ...
'Some, but not all of our planets energy' I'd be surprised if we harvest even 0.001% of the energy of this planet. Truly harvesting Earths energy would entail control over the oceans and the atmosphere to a degree that we effectively had full control of the weather.
For us to do ANY of this we as a species need to get our heads out of our own asses and and stop putting up these imaginary boarders and lines dividing everyone and work together as a common species rather than killing eachother over obtaining most resources.
Love what if videos🥰🥰🥰
Fascinating, Intriguing and full. Of curiosity. Being a layman on physics I still enjoy Universe evolution and what's beyond. Considering human civilization. Is 200 k years old where would we be in the next two hundred thousand years. That's something mind blowing. We will be the Gods of everything. I wish somehow science comes up with a way to preserve me while I am alive and bring me back to life as type 5 civilization.
39:50 amen , words are keys. Interstellar. Love faith joy❤❤❤
Who else is from the planet earth still here?
😂
we were born too early to experience immortality, I have no regrets because the person I love is with me in the same age of time
I dont know what love is.
do they have a brother? asking for a friend (i'm that friend)
Comparing energy to the necessity of having oxygen is wild.
i cant wait to see the type 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 civilization
Imagine being in a civilization without repetitive annoying videos.
Or comments
Michio Kaku in town.
I was thinking about what if all people instead of being territorial , worked together to achieve a lots of goal out of earth , like colonize planets gather resourses to create a mini dyson sphere or something like that. But to think about it , we technically progressed being at wars, when humanity had crisis we progress so much further. Then I thought realistically human being will be unified against something out of earth, and what if aliens know about it , so they are hiding from us to prevent us to unify against them , and if they know our nature being territorial having so much experience in battles , they could be different , they could not have any wars, so what if they are afraid what we will be capable of , if we develope rapidly
We currently have the capacity to send out such signals and have since the '50s. If there is extraterrestrial life within 70 light years of Earth with the capacity to pick up such signals, they could be enjoying reruns of "I Love Lucy" as we speak.
The only hope is AI and something like neurolink, Imagine if all children at the age of 7 years, have all the knowledge downloaded into their brains. Civilization can change completely in a lifetime
Are you serious!! You are not very bright there, Mr Wizard!
Bro children aren't made to be that smart there brains would not be able to handle all the information
@@KingsPieceYT then you are not aware of children's cerebral capacity
living forever, a luxury of a type 3 civilization, it is said that type 5 civilizations would be like gods, and that if we found a piece of their tech we would not know how to operate it or even study it to see how it works as it would be so far beyond anything we have. Its funny that we can see how beings could evolve so far that they would literally become like gods, and some people have taken the Kardashev scale to 12.9 where those beings are "plains walkers" and able to access and control all of the energy of the multiverse being able to traverse the multiverse at will even creating new universes. People will go that far but then Reject outright the God of the bible and mock saying things like a flying spaghetti monster, they will go beyond the God of the bible in evolved civilizations with power so far above us we are like bacteria to them, but they will reject the God of the bible now to me that is some serious irony.
All these civilizations are currently the figments of human imagination and farthest they can contemplate on, if this is so, from your logic itself, why can't the God of Bible can't be the figment of imagination of some hallucinating dude.
what does a god have to do with this video?
@@letsplaywar Did you even watch the whole video, or pay attention? 13:35 almost infinite energy Supply we wouldn't need resource management at 13:40 this point we'd be Godlike with enough biotech to make us Immortal and nearly 13:47 indestructible if anything stood in our way well we could snap our fingers and 13:53 call it a day over time we would eventually exhaust our our entire Galaxy's yet type 5 civilization similar to a type four 21:57 civilization a a type five civilization would be dealing with problems and obstacles that we can't even 22:05 comprehend but what we do know is that this civilization would be able to do 22:10 virtually anything the people or whatever they would evolve to at this 22:16 point would essentially become gods they could instantly create new universes 22:22 with specific conditions that they could use to experiment with new life they 22:28 could effectively create their own simulations ones that are even more 22:33 complex than the world we live in today and the key difference would be that a type five civilization would have 22:41 access to and control of multiple universes yeah instead of being limited 22:47 to just one puny Universe we would now become a multiversal 22:53 civilization this means everything we could do in one Universe our control of 22:58 energy and our access to resources would now be multiplied across the entire 23:05 Multiverse now what happens after that is almost incomprehensible a type six or seven So let me get this straight, we can conceptualize evolving to become gods ourselves with god like abilities and control of the entire multiverse, but sit here and deny the one true God that created everything that exists.
@@letsplaywar Watch the whole video, you will find that it says we evolve into godlike beings and have godlike abilities, even becoming almost indestructible. Godlike is mentioned twice, gods once, God once, if with millions of years of evolution as they are claiming we could become godlike, or gods, why on earth would you claim there is no God? If it is possible that in the far-off distant future we could evolve into gods, able to create multiple universes and control them, what makes anyone think it has not already been done?
Now rather than converting energy we are still creating more waste by about 10or more time the amount of energy conversion so dont even think about doing anything about the energy and focus on how to decrease the waste we produce
I seriously read this as Kardashian scale. LOL
