Nice weather we are having today!
You look up into the sky, and giant clouds are forming.
This nice weather will create torrential rain, flooding, and maybe even end a few lives.
And that is physics. It is all cyclic. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. And so, whatever you talk about on a forum, someone can argue against, by changing the cycle of the argument. What you need to do is capture a moment in a cycle, and all agree that you are talking about that same moment. And psychologically you need to have a starting point for your mental image of the physical cycle.
Take the Big Bang, it is talked about as though it was ever the first thing to happen, and that there was no time before it. That must make a lot of people happy, and they all have a point of reference to talk about. It's manageable, and the brain likes it. Unfortunately you need to accept a cycle with no beginning, and so you need to be able to cope with a complex idea, and all agree on a starting point in a cycle.
Nice weather we are having today!
Yes... very nice!
