Steinhardt’s Boundary: Where Cosmology Ends and Metaphysics Begins
Follows Chapter 3’s ‘Introduction to Cosmological Metaphysics‘—laying the M.E.T.A. Physics foundation before this applied case study in cosmic-existential synthesis.
When does cosmic science become metaphysics? Dr. Hakeem Alexander decodes Paul Steinhardt’s testability threshold—and how dark matter, infinite universes, and cosmic endings force us to choose: empirical silence or philosophical audacity.
Listen to “When Science Becomes Metaphysics: Paul Steinhardt's Cosmic Boundary” on Spreaker.đź” Paul Steinhardt declared: ‘Untestable theories cross from science into metaphysics.’
In my new Eternal Echoes chapter, I prove cosmology FORCES this leap:
• Dark energy’s expansion → time’s illusion
• Infinite space → human meaning crisis
• Big Bang’s ‘nothingness’ → causality paradoxes
Science gives data. Metaphysics gives meaning.
We need both.
