Many have worried about the work being done at some of the linear accelerators around the world, especially recently at CERN, some are worried that by simulating a black hole, which is a theory, with particles, that we might open up a self-perpetuating a growing object that might swallow us up. Well, scientists and researchers tell us to hold our conspiracy theory, paranormal, and anti-research rhetoric, as they say it will not happen.

Can they guarantee that? Well, their answers are usually no, but they say based on the theories and understanding of such, it's not possible, or so improbable that it is not a concern at CERN. Well, no matter how improbable it might be, if there is the slightest chance, you can see why people are a bit concerned about such things.

Not long ago an acquaintance said to me; "[Humans] are infants in the world of physics [and] until this species understands the basic language of the universe, and doesn't mess things up, we won't be allowed into that playground."

This maybe so, but it postulates two things. One, that there is a greater intelligence out there, that is keeping an eye on the human race and our evolutionary and science developments. And two, that the human species is naive when it comes to physics and what is known.

Now then, we need to be very careful what we call "this species" as there is a lot of separation between the members of this species in intelligence and reasoning ability. Human science is making headway. Further, human pursuit of knowledge will never stop. Messing things up, is a concern, yes, but that should not stop the flow or pursuit of truth.

None of this bothers me to consider, but others get so upset because it interferes with their belief system, which is too bad. We must not stop research, we must press on, and we ought to minimize risk, but we must move forward. Please consider all this.
