HOLY shit thats a lot of fancy book learnin words

no pun intended....i think youre making up bullshit............lol

I think you're kidding, but it's all listed in the link provided as a fairly solid explanation of what I'm talking about. If not, the dictionary is always your friend.

It is not illogical to exist outside of the natural universe because it is not self contridicting.

You're assuming there are no natural laws for "outside" the Universe, or that the outside of the Universe even exists. Then you make up rules (or lack thereof) for this realm, and declare it non-contradicting. In the words of Richard Dawkins, "That's just too easy, isn't it?".

If that is the case, how can we tell the difference between this supernatural realm and the nonexistent?

Ok well im going to ask a question that one of you probably has the answer too. If there technically was no outside of the universe, then what could the universe possibly be expanding further into? There must be some sort of spacy thing that allows the universe to expand at the rate it is, so I wouldn't doubt that there is in fact an outside of the universe. Im only in 11th grade so forgive me for not knowing the answer to this.

The "universe" is really just the total area with stuff in it. Most of the universe is empty space. Outside of the universe, there is nothing, so the stuff in the universe can spread out into the nothing around it.

I didn't know the universe was expanding, is that a fact? I always thought of it as the available space and that only the matter/energy/whatever inside of it moved.
If there is an outside of the universe, there must be some kind of border to it. However, if there is no outside, I can only imagine that it's kind of like a circle and that you ended up at your starting position if you moved forever in the same direction. Don't take this example too seriously, I just don't know what to compare it to :D

I obviously don't know anything about physics, this is just what I can imagine myself.

edit:

The "universe" is really just the total area with stuff in it. Most of the universe is empty space. Outside of the universe, there is nothing, so the stuff in the universe can spread out into the nothing around it.

Do you make a difference between empty space and nothing? This sounds like you're saying that the empty space spreads into the nothing around it.
