Thank you for that Mm. I would hope however that you might be able to summarize it in language more suitable to the Average Clod (me)

I can’t believe how a Theory of Everything could account for things being the way they are. Thus for instance why is there anything at all

…..and why does it seem the physical constants seem to have been “adjusted” within a fraction of one percent to make possible the evolution of life

It would seem a Theory of Everything ought to answer such

They are the "Faster than Light Neutrino"

Intuitively, it might turn out neutrinos go faster ‘cause they’re lighter


and the "Origin of Gravity."

One might think the effect of matter “pushing space aside” is its cause. Less intuitive is the apparent effect of velocity on the clock, slowing it, increasing its mass, and foreshortening it, easily explained however by considering the velocity of light c to be illusory while actually v >>> c

Hmm, as I see it, discussing the aether’s properties as they are revealed by the objects that reside within it is in fact talking about the nature of aether

Indeed Intuition insists on the materiality of the aether, easily explaining light as a wave and the resistance it offers accounting for the limitation of c


Sgtill as however a purely semantic issue I object to the term”Theory of Everything” on the bases indicated in my post #2

These are really good questions

Why thank you Mm

My best guess is that the Universe along with God has always existed.

Mine also. Skirts a number of contradictions and paradoxes. For much the same reason I see a finite Universe with sequential Big-Bang—Big-crunches forever, separated by a moment of nothingness. To further allay contradiction I assert its duration to be zero

Perhaps the physical Universe was created by God for some divine spiritual purpose.

Eventually it will be shown that because the idea of “nothingness” entails paradox, that matter is the “natural” state of things, doesn’t required to be “created,” that the physical constants assume the values they do because they are interdependent—so in other words things are the way they are because that’s the only way they can be


That doesn’t mean necessarily that there’s no God while I have to concede the fact that these constants seem to have been “adjusted” within a fraction of one percent in some cases—to permit the evolution of life—is pretty compelling

It is my personal belief that the spiritual realm and the physical realm are deeply entangled.

Well put. But entangled in a necessary fashion

The technique I am referring to is using a psychic or what Einstein would call and intuitive approach. …………. through intuition to connect directly to the Source (God). This is a superior way…….

Remarkable you should so assert as I’ve long maintained much to the consternation of our participant colleagues Intuition doesn’t get nearly the credit it deserves


Many people believe in the Multiverse explanations.

Multiverses and infinity unlikely in accordance with the general principle that the simpler concept almost always eventually prevails. For instance by the laws of chance infinity would require the intuitionally unacceptable supposition of an infinite number of identical galaxies at all times. In other words at this very instance there are an infinite number like this one with Dale and Mm chatting; as well as an infinite number differing from this one only in the length of one hair on your head being 0.000000000001 or one quantum unit longer or shorter etc etc etc

I personally go with the old traditional intelligent design theory. No one really knows. It is definitely a good topic to discus in another thread just dedicated for that discussion.

According to another GP nothing is entirely anything while everything is partly something else suggesting no distinct dividing line between the material and the abstract the apodictical existential pantheist equates All with Her. We might be considered Her brain cells

--coupled by the dogmatic thinking that typically goes with it--that is the primary force in the ongoing destruction of the biosphere and the long-term extermination of the human species.

Verily Post and for that very reason if She is listening—and as a pantheist I am sure She is—I herewith grasp the opportunity once more to thank Her for having allowed me to live most of my existence between nuclear wars

my objective assessment is that these things you seek are merely artifacts of your presuppositions.

Of course they are since we’re working in an area where “science and reason” peter out and all we’re left with is Intuition. But Mm’s ideas do indicate a superior Intuition

……..because of course it’s like mine

Not sure about that Nob. Why does leaving bubbles imply mass
