Funny Dream

I had a bit of a funny dream last night. I dreamt that the universe was folding in on itself and we were stuck inside trapped in one moment of time which was to go on forever, like some science fiction vision of hell. It wasn't nice. I remember waking up distraught and thinking this is the most frightening dream I've ever had.
Two stories may have prompted this. The first about a study which showed that people who believed in free will acted less selfishly even though free will probably doesn't exist:

The second, the lastest in a long line of breakthrough that are helping unravel the secrets of our existence. Where will it end?
