So im really into thoerys mythed things to be discovered y so i did som research on the butterfly effect here is the bases: So ive research this a bunch when im bored it is called “The butterfly effect” that is the title of a movie but it is also something which was studied and also the moral of that movie i will explain do you realize every decision and action you make does not only effect you but effects the world…even dropping a pen…even the smallest action impacts the world…ya see ther are always two ways for a scenario to go…for example the pen…if you where not have dropped the pen the world would have continued in the path it was going since you dropped the pen a part of lifes script will change a better example would be a man is going to slab a women but some one grabs the mans hand and stops him…if he perso did not grab the mans hand the women would be hit hurt and crying the cops would be called effecting not only the mans life but the officers life the womqns life the neighborhoods sleep…by that one hit lifes script changed this whole phenomenon goes deeper then just what i have explained the basic of it is basically
t The scientific theory that a single occurence, no matter how small, can change the course of the universe forever

Well, the butterfly effect is all about “cause and effect.” It emphasizes the notion that even miniscule causes can cascade into very significant and potentially large effects.
But i don’t think it’s all that profound to say that “one single event can change the course of the universe forever.”
Everything that occurs is “forever.” Time only moves forward. Everything that happens is “permanent,” even if a particular situation, circumstance or scenario, ends. Time is quite linear, and so anything that occurs along the always-forward path of time, is “permanent,” as time cannot reverse, and we cannot go back and change things. You can change a scenario by altering it in the present, causing a different result in the future, but the span of time occupied by the existence of that scenario, prior to it being altered, will always be the same in history (and i mean actual history, not the stories of history written by the winners).
But then again… who’s to say that committing any action “alters the course” of the universe? Perhaps the course of the universe was already developing to include a seeming intervention action/response? One could argue that arriving in the right place and time, being prepared to act, and acting, is actually part of “the course of the universe,” and so by doing what that individual does in that moment, that person has actually stayed the course of the universe through an intervention, rather than altering it by remaining passive, instead of intervening.
We can’t really know what “the course of the universe” even means… except by observing things we don’t control, and reasoning our own functions in our alterable environment, and considering which things seem to “go with the natural flow,” and which seem to deviate from or alter it.
I think that sentient beings with free will, are less, if at all, attached to and governed by any “universal course,” except on a purely primitive level. We are free to act… but in the universal scale, the actions of humans don’t even matter. Compared to the whole of the universe, we are utterly insignificant.
Its a thoery not proven but suspected 🙂 just as all your other suggestions i just choose to go with this one Thanks for your input 😀
Well… “cause and effect” is certainly true, it’s just that we don’t always see every piece of the cause, or every result of the effect.
Can a butterfly flapping its wings /really/ “change the world?” Maybe. But maybe that butterfly is there because it’s supposed to be there, and maybe the world was already going to be the way resulting from the flapping of the wings. Perhaps not flapping its wings that amount, in that location, at that particular time, is what would “change” the world.
Maybe “the way of the world” includes even the flapping wings of a butterfly. I would struggle to accept any argument claiming that it should be excluded… but i’m sure that other things have a much larger effect than any butterfly.
Either way, all events have a cause, whether or not we see and understand them.
Valid point (: i agree
