My fascination with equal.

Equal is the solution to every mathematical equation or problem, every single one. An equation is only true when it is equal. And it was a mathematical solution, hello, to unify the universe that Einstein was looking for. Whilst he ventured down the road of complex mathematics, getting lost on the way, the solution was more simple than thought; the truth was the other way. Equal works not only mathematically but more importantly empirically, or more simply stated: the equality of experience is the self-evident truth. The search is over, time to unite or equate the universe. Equal is the natural solution to everything.

I'm afraid you are incorrect. "Equal" is not the solution to every mathematical problem. Since you insist on talking about mathematical equations, then the equals sign simply says that the left hand side of the equation is the same as the right hand side of the equation. So, since you want to use this stupid analogy, what does the theory of everything "equal"? Note that, it cannot be equal to "equal," before you even say it.

In your final line, you say "time to equate the universe".. equate it to what? In the equation y=x^2 I equate y to x^2; but what do you intend to equate the universe to? It is, by definition, everything.
