Philosophy Wire: Universe. Early universe. Fuzzy universe…

Scientists have found that the early universe, and the very first galaxies, would have looked very different depending on the nature of dark matter. For the first time, the team has simulated what early galaxy formation would have looked like if dark matter were ''fuzzy,'' rather than cold or warm. [1] Was the universe fuzzy in the beginning? Was it crystal clear? No, I am not talking about its physical properties. In a conscious world who cares about them anyway? I am talking about its philosophical ones! A universe existing cannot start from any other point than clear existence. A cosmos being, cannot be based on anything else than being itself. Everything is simple at the end. We complicate them because of our inability to admit the obvious. There is nothing fuzzy about an existing cosmos. Except for us. Because we don’t like this cosmos. We want to destroy it. And what better way to do that, than to try to explain why an existing cosmos exists? Ask. But be aware. Those who ask are sometime the questions themselves… (Do you exist?)
