But yes, Eldritch abominations exist, with varying degrees of power. Not in the sense of Cthulhu or anything, but more akin to Molech.

If you read the bible, God himself has a lot of the symptoms of an eldritch abomination.

Umm I'm trying to hold back my laughter.
How come MAGA is an echo chamber?

Anyway about Eldritch abominations - I believe that they exist, but I guess it's not scientifically proven yet?

There could be, but there could also be peaceful, good beings with the same amount of power or more as the abominations.

Considering we're a population of great apes whose entire history is a fraction of a second in geologic terms and whose knowledge of the universe is limited to a tiny fraction of that time and is still utterly incomplete...in the words of the Book of Bokonon, "'Pay no attention to Caesar. Caesar doesn't have the slightest idea what's really going on." There's a lot out there that we don't understand and probably never will understand.

"Restraint? Why are you so concerned with saving their lives? The whole idea is to kill the bastards. At the end of the war if there are two Americans and one Russian left alive, we win!" ~ Thomas S. Power

I find it humorous that this man not only said the above, but then insisted on continuing to target civilian population centers as part of MAD despite arguments saying that they should restrict themselves to military targets. AND Openly revealed just how potentially fucked the Russians were by intentionally leaking information.

And still kept his job.

Life in both higher dimensions and lower dimensions is unlikely, higher because gravity does not cause rings to form around gravitational centers (and thus doesn’t allow planets to form around stars), and lower because there’s so much less relative space.
