Hopefully none. I do hold some that you could call a-scientific, or something, because existing science has no impact either way. Like what kinds of foods are good or bad. Or morality.

The universe was created. Not suggesting any particular creation account, just mathematically it makes more sense that it wasn't random. And anyone who believes in things like a cyclic universe or infinite universes to explain it is just afraid of being associated with religion (as we have no real evidence to support those theories).

I personally think there has to be a loop of some kind. It exists because it was made, and its creation results in the creation of its makers.

Like it's all just a strange paradox.

That there is an as of yet undiscovered loophole to either the no cloning theorem or the more general no broadcast theorem. I can understand the problems that are generated by either being true, but FTL communication and dataships are just so darn cool.
