| Re: Matter is everything in a void: Ok, Dave, that seems to be much clearer and more plausible a standpoint than what I originally thought was an entire universe existing within a non-existent void. We can have differentiable densities forming matter separated by an electromagnetic field infinitely, if I'm not misreading you.
Some say that a galaxy wouldn't exist if there were not a black hole at the center, or the universe wouldn't exist if there were not a singular origin. Whether or not my abstract observations or your real observations are accurate is irrelevant, because the effects must be due to variable quanta - I would think always. There must be causes to create various effects of particular magnitudes, and my question is are the causes cumulative.
If we consider that it had been inferred that atoms were indivisible whereas now they are deemed composite, we might want to ask where the finish line is. If macroscopic causes are now deemed the result of microscopic effects, which in turn are the result of quantum causes, what exactly is causing processionary effects?
I know why scientists justify limitations based on empirical evidence. And I have nothing against scientists, outside of playing with dangerous things without fully knowing the consequences, but to indirectly influence people's sense of reality based on those limitations is another matter. Intrinsic properties, particular quanta, planck units, renormalization, etc., are based upon uncertainties due to instrumentation that render the starting points of measurements non-zero. There can be no such thing as an accurate measurement in science, and therefore depictions of what is called reality must be just that, less-than-accurate. Conversely, the logic of the mind knows no bounds, and is the basis for making yesteryear's science fiction the science that you know today.
Ultimately, I would ask if a quark can be rendered comparable in size to the entire universe, if we account for infinitesimal quanta (defined as quanta infinitely less than quarks)? I would think that with all the evidence of fractal geometry found in nature, and knowing that the laws required to produce such phenomena must follow throughout unobservable scales which are the basis of observable fractals, it is fairly probable if not certain.
We can know absolute reality and relative reality by knowing what is required for infinitesimal particles to function as movable spatial densities, which is the motionless and pointless origin of motion and point measurements (momentum and position). |
