Space: does it exist? Are you an Atheists of space or do you have faith?

One dimension is a dot. It goes nowhere. Two dimensions is lines that go in directions on a single plane but have no depth. Three dimensions has depth. They can be described as objects or even beings. I believe that fourth dimension is space. It has no restrictions. We know very little about space and do not know how it works or how to manipulate it. We just accept that it is. Shalom~Adoniah

Hi Urban, I'm trying to get my head around whether there is a philosophical issue here or whether actually the apparent problem is just the result of inadequate semantics. I may have to sleep on this one. ATB, Isis

It's all relative, isn't it? A space on earth is always moving, with the turning of the planet, the orbit around the sun, the sun around the center of the Milky Way, and whatever movement the Milky Way is doing. Space is useful. Think of a bowl. How do you use it? You put food (or what have you) in the space provided. Same with a box, and a drawer. If that space was not provided and contained, it would be useless. Bottles, cans, bags; anything that can be used as a container. The wheel has at least one hole, which is a space, that is used to connect it to the axle. Otherwise it is useless. And everything physical takes up a space. A rock by itself may not be useful by itself (unless you keep it for its beauty,) but a whole bunch of them uses their individual spaces to help level a road, build a wall, knock some sense into an enemy's head. Now why shouldn't we say that this space is different from that space? It may contain different stuff, but take the stuff out and what do you have?

In my opinion, every thing above surface of earth is nothing but space, that extends to infinity, the atmosphere is there up to certain distance only.. the space above UK at any instant is certainly different from that above bhutan at the same instant..
