Perhaps part of the problem is a lack of clarity over the meaning of 'random'. Traditionally, it is supposed to mean that an outcome or next in sequen...
Banno Despite your appeals to the moderators, and being told what you had to do to both disprove the alternate theory, and demonstrate the proof to su...
Hi Niki Despite people's preference for emphasising entropy instead of recognising assembly/accumulation when it arises, something had to create the o...
The expansion of space, rather than the expansion of the physical universe, is commonly referred-to as inflation theory - and the invite is still ther...
Hi Possibility If entropy is based on the notion of energy flowing away from an aggregation of energy, I do not see why you should label the accumulat...
Exactly - although the point in that thread was about the speed of expansion being faster than the current speed of light, rather than the size of the...
Hi Manuel Anyone who is not working within a specialist field has to trust the findings being described by the experts, and rely on peer reviews to po...
Hi Banno That's a great video - thanks for pointing it out. The maths is largely beyond me, but I listened to the entire thing, to try and get the mos...
Hi Wayfarer I totally agree that Stevenson's work was brilliant, even if it couldn't be held as conclusive. I also agree that the Wikipedia article is...
Banno - I think you have to be careful with sweeping statements. I agree with Manuel when he said... There is nothing wrong in trying to simplify the ...
Hi Possibility To clarify a couple of background points before we get onto the proper discussion - I was categorizing entropy as negative, and assembl...
I don't think that's correct. The whole underlying philosophy of physics is that the size of the universal pot never alters. Nothing is ever lost, it ...
Hi Apollodorus I don't understand your question. What is there to philosophise about? It either exists or it doesn't. The only thing that can determin...
If the dimensional lines (labelled x y and z for height width and depth) can conceptually extend for ever, then even if the universe hasn't expanded t...
Sorry but I think that is nonsense. You don't require understanding to know you exist. The very fact that you can 'think and do' means you exist. Unde...
The Double Slit experiment for one. Dark Energy and the accelerating expansion of the universe as another. What about particle entanglement? What abou...
No they don't. The Laws of physics merely build-in an assumption. They don't prove that the speed of light is fixed.... and the evidence would seem to...
To say that Life is part of entropy because it consumes (disassembles) its food/nutrients ignores the incredible amount of assembly that it does in cr...
Hi Banno An interesting reply - thank you. As I understand it, Maxwell's equations only demonstrate how we consistently perceive light. The size of th...
Hi ghostlycutter The author, Christophe Finipolscie came up with a great phrase when discussing the principle of entropy and the 2nd Law of Thermodyna...
Hi MondoR & Enrique We differentiate things because they display fundamentally different characteristics or effects. If Mater/Energy can't do somethin...
Hi jgill The trouble with Feynman was that his deterministic approach, based on the traditional maths that underpins all of the scientific Laws of Phy...
Thanks for that "MU". The maths is quite simple.... The age of the universe is now agreed at approx 13.7 billion years. An explosion at the speed of l...
Hi Banno I don't think there are inconsistencies.. The Laws concerning movement won't be affected by the possibility that travel faster than light is ...
In relation to your latest bit of nonsense... why don't your read the previous posts? Tim - your credibility is shot, and you don't understand what re...
Hi Enrique There is a difference between determinism and dualism. In fact, a 2nd type of stuff underpinning reality is the prime way to preserve deter...
I did answer the points, and my evidence is far beyond just claims. They are accepted basic science. None of the others who advocate inflation could p...
Hi Enrique True - single particle experiments can only be done with modern equipment, but I don't see why there is a need to imagine a different mecha...
Tim - if you're going to resort to blatant lies, there's no point in continuing. Your credibiilty is shot - and others who can read can verify what I ...
Hi Enrique Sorry - I missed your post on 9th April, due to all the other comments. The reason why I don't think that an electromagnetic field generate...
What a load of rubbish. I have stated my evidence many times, as this thread easily shows, and quite clearly - the size of the universe compared to th...
Try to be mature about this Tim. If you have a reason why you feel that my suggestion is wrong then say so, but saying that it is wrong simply because...
Hi Enrique I think a basic problem with your idea is that the first experiments were conducted with light, and therefore an electric field wouldn't ap...
Denis / All As I have mentioned on my thread in the Philosophy of Science forum, probabilities are an acknowledgment of no known cause for a range of ...
Tim If you don't believe in the application of logic to evidence, then you have no basis for any opinion. The evidence and logic I presented are perfe...
Hi Pop There is clearly information and logic within the totality of existence, as we all know that we use this as part of our conscious lives. That d...
Hi Enrique May the force be with you too! I have tried to re-read your initial post, and to some degree, I think you're suggesting that the electrical...
If you inflate a balloon, the objects you draw on it inflate too. In reality, objects in space stay the same size. Why you persist in the nonsense of ...
Hi Aryamoy Mitra I am saying, very clearly, that Inflationary Cosmology was specifically proposed to preserve the notion of a fixed speed for light. I...
Hi Aryamoy Mitra You are again resorting to relative measures, which can be subject to many unknown influences - including your supposition that your ...
As T Clark suggests, we should acknowledge proven undisputed evidence, and then distinguish it from theory and speculation. All are fine so long as we...
As I said - CERN believes that it has uncovered proof of a new (5th ) force in nature. I first heard about it on the BBC - but here's another article ...
Hi Aryamoy Mitra There is a place for relativity, and it is a good place, but it is a toolset like any other and it must always be compared to absolut...
Hi Pop I think there is a misunderstanding about Dualism here. If the 2 main monist views are either that :- a) there is only physical Matter/Energy (...
Pop As you will have gathered from my other posts, I do believe that various effects in nature, (beyond any man-made influence), point towards some ba...
Hi All Your examples are based on relative positions rather than absolute ones - and as a result are subject to various potential distortions. That is...
