OmegaOm - You are confusing reality with human perception.


Black holes have the ability to bend space and time around them. These two items do very strange things (in our perception) when they are stretched to infinity.

The black holes can merge, but as humans, we don't have the instrumentation to observe or measure this yet.

You are not understanding this paradox, because no one has been able to understand this yet. We simply don't have enough tools to fix this problem.

Things do, in fact, enter black holes. This is observable in looking at disks of superheated gases and debris being sucked into the event horizon. close(-)
