Cosmology and Delusional Grandiosity

>I understand the entire history of the universe from the very start, I know everything, I can also predict the future of the universe until the end of time
If someone were to tell you this, would you believe them or would you expect that they are suffering from delusional grandiosity?
According to what limited research has been done on grandiose delusions, the odds are at least 800,000,000:1 that you're listening to an insane person.
Those odds make the big presumption that there is one person who has it all thought out correctly, if there isn't then the odds get even worse.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandiose_delusions
>Grandiose delusions (GD), also known as delusions of grandeur or expansive delusions, are a subtype of delusion that occur in patients with a wide range of psychiatric diseases, including two-thirds of patients in a manic state of bipolar disorder, half of those with schizophrenia, patients with the grandiose subtype of delusional disorder, frequently in narcissistic personality disorder, and a substantial portion of those with substance abuse disorders.
>GDs are characterized by fantastical beliefs that one is famous, omnipotent, wealthy, super intelligent, or otherwise very powerful.
>The delusions are generally fantastic and typically have a religious, science fictional, or supernatural theme.
>There is a relative lack of research into GD, in contrast to persecutory delusions and auditory hallucinations. >Around 10% of healthy people experience grandiose thoughts at some point in their lives but do not meet full criteria for a diagnosis of GD.

Who is saying this though? Are you saying this is what all cosmologists think or something? Because saying you know something and you have a theory about something are quite different

Most popsci fans treat the current predictions as dogma, including dark matter
If you think you know how old the universe is you're a retard

That's ok, but the theory just puts an artificial start date on when they think the big bang happened. It's not meant to signify an actual creation date, the theory doesn't talk about any kind of creation. The theory just states the universe was extremely dense and then suddenly started expanding, and the date that happened is said to be the start for convenience purposes, but it's not declared the start of reality. Some articles will say that's when time started but I think that gets mixed up with just when anything meaningful started, or restarted. Then other theories like cyclic theories and m theory and virtual particle fluctuations and things like that talk about various possibilities before that point. So far the theory with the highest likelihood is the big bang theory which gives us a start date kind of like the start of A.D.from B.C./A.D.

I wonder why scientists don't spend more money studying the phenomenon of grandiose delusions.

Martin is nearly the perfect caricature of the average cosmology expert, he needs to be a lot more four eyed though

needs a bigger nose too, the pseudoscience known as "cosmology" is dominated by jews

I propose a new cosmological model General Order Dynamics or GOD for short.
It postulates that there is are entity from higher dimensions that can affect our universe. Their interactions cannot be detected except through how they order matter over time.
My model matches observed reality 100%. Much better than standard model or MOND.
Bullet cluster? GOD did it.
Bar galaxies? GOD did it.
GOD makes the universe expand.

gosh, why would science neglect investigating this one little facet of reality? are they avoiding it intentionally because the inevitable results of any research would be too hurtful and embarrassing for them to deal with?

They aren't different for most people. For the vast majority of people in the sciences, once they have a pet theory they make it part of their system of belief and it become as true as any other religious fact and then they automatically reject any and every shred of evidence which contradicts the pet theory.

This. And when they have tenure they quash all other ideas as hard as possible.

cosmology isn't science, the people involved aren't scientists
