The difference being, that the 6d spacetime with 3d Planck spheres offers more explanations. It's no torus, by the way...

Yes, I can taste the sweet candy you offer here, but I have experienced a lot of times that the musings of de rechter are based on custom and pre-esta...

Like I said, for the bulk motion only one component matters, like the 3 for tiny Planck spheres. The rotation degree of freedom has only implications ...

Yes, but some things are obviously just math, without a counterpart in reality. Such a thing is string theory. Just consider its early incarnation 5d ...

No. You said undetectable means not real. Which is the question. What the math in qft describes are litterally particles rotating in spacetime with an...

But it's the motion in the large dimension that counts. The circle might rotate around the cylinder and that can be interpreted as spin in the 3d case...

Well, that's probably my deeply hidden fruitfly brain part talking then. The part beneath the olfactory lizzard part. I smell powerful tendencies here...

Can't you imagine a thin cylinder? We can't see a Calabi-Yau manifold either. Or even a 26d variation of it. Or branes. Or vibrating strings.

Which doesn't mean that particles are no 3d Planck volumes, looking pointlike from 3 directions. If you're a rigid 1d circle, a circle, on a thin cyli...

Yes. The standard view. How then can they couple to a field of virtual gauge particles?

Yes. But if the circle is wrapped around the cylinder it can only move along the cylinder axis. Which means one dimension.

If a "Mindless Spark" created the universe and the creatures in it in it's own image, then the atheist is the living proof!

What else than gods can be concluded after the gaps are closed (if you wanna use God as a god of the gaps, which isn't necessarily the case)?

Not yet. I only see it now! But all things involving QM are interesting. As a physicist I've aways questioned the standard offer in the two fat Cohen-...

If my model offers an observable and adequate prediction the model is justified. The model can't go deeper than the only thing to conclude is that div...

In the standard interpretation it is the conscious observer who collapses the wavefunction. Only hidden variables offer objective collapse.

We, or me at least, have solved the mystery of the universe and life in it they created.

Indeed! Why not just acknowledging that the supernatural is just as valid as the natural? :up:

About 2145.

My dear gracious good god... Where did you grow up? Ah, of course...you're a philosopher!

:chin:

Not everyone agrees on that...

Then what's the story? Objects following imaginary mathematical patterns, no where to be seen in the real world? Apart from highly artificial, unnatur...

Arguments are fucking boring! Who likes to argue? Instead, the reader likes juicy real-life examples and weird abstractions, presented in page-turning...

Well, I asked if modern day law is not based on habit and custom just as well. You replied it's based on case law, codyfied law, treatise, and legal p...

So the law accepts objective measures of moral, independent of human interest?

On the contrary! I have much to contribute! At t1 the baby is still a part of mamma. At t2 the baby is free. The baby has self caused freedom. So set ...

Take your reader by the hand and imagine her/him to be a friend. Once in a while address him/her as "dear reader". Make them part of the story, let th...

It happens continuously around you.

I confirm what you state! Time 1, no X, time 2, X. Simultaneously causation. X causes and effects itself. But what's the relevance?

Your argument is CORRECT! t1, nothing...t2, X. Now what?

Your OP has been addressed a 1000 times. What more is there to say? It can happen. As simple as that! Jesus!

Like I said, in the imagination everything can happen. Nothing....FLASH...something. Not so difficult. What point you want to make? X can appear where...

Very informative is the dialog. It explicates the process of idea development and emphasizes the critique.

Do you favor circular causality, feminine, almost, vaginac?

:lol: AS seems the undertaker of philosophy while burying the undertaker at the same time. A strange ying and yang Ouroboros, committing philosophical...

You consider them holey books? Anyhow, if they try to tell the story of what happens in the world you can better read a newspaper.

The sun is also made of electrons. It would be a huge proton! Imagine that! Who says dark matter is not made of them too? Condensed in small black hol...

Is there left and right philosophy? Absolutism vs. Relativism? One objective reality vs. many? Sustainable economy vs. economical growth? The scientif...

Sorry for intruding between you and 180Proof, but why you mention dark matter? It's just matter. Same as what the Sun is made of.

What kind of resolution you look for? You look for the nature of existence?

Without reason life is meaningless. It has to have evolved for some intelligible reason. Only if eternal heavenly intelligences have created the unive...

What then is the reason people exist? Or any other creatures? To spread genes or memes? What's the reason for that? If the reason fir life is to procr...

Yes. How can non-intelligent things, like elementary particles, and life evolving from them, exist without a reason for their existence, without intel...

I like your answers. I just want to understand how the reason of existence can be found without gods.

I'm not addressing your problems, how could I? I address the general problem of meaning and reason of existence.

Okay, I'll give it a try. A constructive critique, I hope. "1) Dark matter has an effect on the universe - This statement implies that both dark matte...

You mean the previous comment?

If you don't fear the gods (you absolutely don't have to fear them) then why you still hide from them?

Man requiring meaning in a meaningless world is a man to pity. The hopeless search to fill the meaningless void with self-invented meaning broadens th...
