The Bottle of Marbles Analogy

The Bottle of Marbles Analogy:

Assume you have a bottle containing four marbles, marbles A, B, C, and D, which move with Brownian motion (random motion) within the bottle. When marbles A, B and D collide at the same time a glow occurs and the marbles stick together for 24hrs before the glow ends and the marbles separate. Note that the collision of any marble to another leads to the marbles being stuck together for 24hrs.

If the marbles are left to collide for a while it is noted that at any given time where no marble is paired, the chance of A, B and D colliding simultaneously is 1 in 1000; it is therefore expected that every one thousand days a collision of A, B and D occurs at least once leading to a glow.

If this process is left to run indefinitely non-stop, we can be assured that A, B, and D also collide and glow indefinitely, though not in the same indefinite sense by which the bottle exists. This can be compared to the way there are infinite even numbers in the real number line, but not as many as the infinite real numbers in the real number line.

The bottle can be taken as the universe (That which contains everything, more than just the observable universe), the marbles A, B and D can be taken as the conditions which lead to your conscious experience and the glow as the presence of your consciousness. 

The number of marbles present, the number of marbles needed to collide and the time by which the marbles stay together aren't important; the important properties are: That the nature of the universe as a closed system (Nothing can be created nor destroyed), the collision of the marbles is possible (Observed at least once), and the universe exists indefinitely.

Just a quick post.
