A Harvard scientist has an interesting theory as to how our universe was formed: in a laboratory by higher “class” of lifeform.
Avi Loeb, bestselling author and the former chair of Harvard’s astronomy department, penned an op-ed in Scientific American this week positing that the universe could have been formed in a lab by an “advanced technological civilization.” If true, he said the origin story would unify the religious idea of a creator with the secular idea of quantum gravity.
“Since our universe has a flat geometry with a zero net energy, an advanced civilization could have developed a technology that created a baby universe out of nothing through quantum tunneling,” Loeb wrote.
Class A Civilization
One of the more interesting ideas posited in an article chock full of them is the civilization classification system. Loeb said that as a low-level technological civilization, humans are class C (or a civilization dependent on its host star).
If and when our technology progresses to the point where we can become independent of the Sun, we’d be class B. If we can create our own baby universes in a laboratory (like our theoretical creators) we’d be class A.
Of course, there’s a wide number of things in our way — the biggest hurdle being our inability to create a “large enough density of dark energy within a small region,” said Loeb. However, if and when we do ever get there, we’d be able to join our theoretical creators in class A!
In any case, the theory is compelling, humbling, and a little bit frightening as well. If Loeb’s past theories are also to be believed, we’re likely not the only ones out there gunning for class A status either.

When does this tale come to Netflix?
I really don’t think God would allow you to be God!
What a stupid ass. That’s a good one moron and this is what your future will be with these pukes who are too stupid for their own rear ends. Good luck people – Nothing from nothing gets nothing and all things were created from the beginning by God in His own wisdom and majesty- Pfft a laboratory like the big Frankenstein in the sky. moron
Who made the lab?
Who made the scientist?
Who made anything and everything possible?
Exactly what you asked. Indeed God made the scientist. For a reason. And you have placed yourself above God by denigrating His creation with slurs and jibes like “moron,” stupid ass,” and “pukes.” Your judgements have been noted.
You enjoy the benefits of science, which in my estimation is the study of how everything works. I believe God made everything. Scientists had to try and figure out how God made a heart function. I bet you would want a heart transplant if you needed one. And you just might.
What an idiot!!!!
