I've never been entirely clear on why c is a barrier, honestly. I know there's math behind the notion, but the physical reality of it seems rather mysterious.
Keeping with the mysterious theme, I'll give you a religious reason for C. If you were God and you didn't want neighboring star systems affecting - and polluting - each other, you might make a universe where C is an absolute barrier. It would eliminate species like the Borg, organizations like the Romulan Star Empire or those sickeningly cheerful and very meddlesome folks, the United Federation of Planets.

The existence of C as a barrier is one of those scientific facts that help me believe there is a God.


Yeaaaah.

And the sky is blue specifically because puce is an ugly color.
 
:lol: Nice one. :thumbsup:

Hey, it works for me. I also feel a solar eclipse is evidence there is a God. But that's going too far a field to go into here. This is not a science and religion thread.
