Boy, now I've had duality on the brain all day and I've pretty much convinced myself that there really aren't any dualities except life and death. There probably can't be life without death, although this might not be true. There definately can't be death without life.

Light and dark I'm not sure about. If the universe keeps expanding forever, will there be a point trillions of years from now when all the stars have gone out and electromagnetism has petered into nothingness and there is this "something" which we call the universe and it's totally dark?

As to the wave/particle duality of matter is that an actual duality or is it just that that's the only way we can describe matter? Matter isn't a wave and it isn't a particle it's something else which we approximate by invoking a wave/particle duality.

Anyway--I know I'm pushing the point too far and I won't blather on about it. This is not the Bad Duality Bulletin Board after all. What I was trying to say in the earlier post was that most things are not obvious (except The Byrds are obviously not very good [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] ), and if we walk around thinking that science dudes are obviously close-minded or (as our beloved governor of Minnesota, Jesse the Body, once said) religion is a crutch for the weak-minded than we probably haven't taken a moment to think things through.
