That, of course, is stuff and nonsense. Learn a little science before you make such silly statements. There is no theoretical limit to the possible size of black holes and given enough mass a black hole could contain a universe worth of normal matter at normal temperatures and densities. Of course that mass would have to be far far far more than even the biggest ones we've detected so far, but that is beside the point. There is nothing in physics to prevent the existence of a black hole with the mass of our universe. However it would contain a singularity in the middle. Since we don't observe an unhidden singularity in our universe it is reasonable to conclude that it is not, therefore, a black hole. But maybe someone will observe such a thing tomorrow, you never know for certain. Ed Seedhouse "Seedhouse" on ICC CFC Rating: 2050
