I think any theory that opens up the possibility for Time Travel is a Toe by definition; because it allows you to bend the laws of Physics allowing you to describe more than any other normal human will or will not.

5589,What do you suggest,I agree views need to be adjusted,can we find a way through
i wonderI am willing to go along with any agreed plan of action.

Fact is what we measure and have numbers to support it. What the numbers mean is the theory or opinion. Science philosophy is the paradigm we use to obtain the numbers and guess what they mean. Our current philosophy has wandered into the twilight zone and needs to be dragged back to the classical reality of existence before a real TOE can be achieved.
Is that what you are proposing Dave,four catagories to choose from?Lets try then and
draw away from the twilight zone,into the full daylight?

Theories can be placed in pre-existing categories or the person submitting their TOE could create a new category for it.

It would be limiting to just have a few categories where your TOE must go.

I think the contest should be one of proof, not of popularity. The voting could be on those theories that offer the most proof for X (as judged by the community). X = several things, each voted on in a different round.

For example: "Which of the following theories offers the most compelling explanation of what gravity is?"

(Also, obviously, prize money could not go to theories where the person submitting it did not come up with it.)

Regarding what a TOE is we should be most open-minded. Truth is we simply don't know what it should/could be.

Re: Does String Theory have any value as a TOE? - 02-02-2007, 02:53 AM

The theory of everything will show that the laws of thermodynamics are reversible and that time will eventually be reversed. The complete reversal of the laws of thermodynamics will happen when two points, seperated by slightly less than a planck distance, begin expanding away from eachother at greater than lightspeed. This is the progression that dark energy is pulling us towards, and distant galaxies are already expanding away at greater than lightspeed. Eventually, spacetime is going to rip.

The key to understanding this is 1/0. You hit the nail on the head Bottomlander when you said "Sometimes, keys are re-definitions of items people overlooked!" Hey, I like you're attitue! As fate would have it, the great item we (mathematicians) have overlooked is the one we didn't define at all - 1/0. 1/0 scares people because it's so easily confused with nothing, but it's easy to think about when you just look at the LITERAL ENGLISH TRANSLATION. ONE THING DIVIDED BY NOTHING! That's what everything is for the love of God - the unified field - one thing divided by nothing! That is what the whole human race is supposed to be as well you know. Unity through diversty! We can be A million billion people all divided by nothing (1,000000000000/0), serving as one great undivided consciousness (1/0), and we can do it in diverse style as well! There is 1/0 different ways to be 1/0, because 1/0 is all ways!

Everything is made out of magnetism I say, just like Ed Leedskalnin who built coral castle said. Magetism is so PERFECT because magnetism is the combination of the two sides of the "force" - positive and negative. Yes, it's just like starwars, only instead of the dark side and the light sight binding everything together you have the north pole and the south pole! And it all relates to good and evil you know - basic morality! Any dichotomy exists. Yin and Yang. Evil and good. There are REAL forces at work in the universe. For example right now humans are being evil with all their wars and pollution. But we are supposed to make a choice to be good. Aha, The Axiom of Choice! We are the force of freedom. By being evil, we're not even making a choice to be free. We're trashing our opportunity for free will and for piece, and for universal understanding and for (techno)logical harmony. We have an opportunity for acceptance in the universe amongst all the other races who have ALREADY MADE IT and who HAVE BEEN THIS WAY BEFORE! Millions of habitable planets I'm telling you in the universe and Millions of intelligent races who are watching us and wondering if we'll make it. "Will we make it?" You think that so-called crop circles are ALL hoaxes! Man, i's time for us to wake up and look around at everything. Everything is defined by the light!

Everything is made out of magnetism at the most fundamental level. Little magnets spinning around eachother and this creates photons, electrons, protons, etc. etc. You can model it by building a machine. You can prove it! A PERPETULA MOTION machine! That is what the universe is based on - PERPETUAL MOTION. You can tap into the secrets of the universe and there will be no more pollution, no more war, no more strife, and no more division. Man can live in peace and use limitless energy wisely to travel the stars, even time. Man can appreciate nature and know the meaning of it. There is so many things you can do once you know everything that magnetism has to offer, and you know the principles behind it, and the principles of right and wrong, north and south, male and female, flotsam and jetsam, contradiction and consistece. It will absolutely blow your mind and make you thankful that it is so wonderful. The irony of truth will amaze and dazzle you!

You will know all! Just consider the true definition of 1/0! One Thing Divided by Nothing! That is all everything means. The combination of positive and negative (infinity), north and south poles. The reciprocal of zero. There is no such thing as an opinion that serves to divide. There is only one true thing and that is Love and Harmony and pure loving living consciousness! The laws of thermodynamics are reversible my friends. It's a fact! Think about it and you'll see why. Diametric symmetry. The balance of unbalance. You can even become highly intuitive if you choose to. Think about the circle my friends, think about the circle. Everything is already spelled out for you in the Axiom of Choice and the (In)completeness Theorem! It's proof by consistent contradiction. It's the funny things that make us laugh. It's the constancy of change. Wave/particle duality. Something so valuable, it's priceless. Something so amazing and profound, it is known, but unrealized - incredible, but true. It's all positive and negative (infinity), north and south poles. That's everything at the most basic level. + and -. Everything (1/0) and nothing (0) else. Thank you.

Re: Does String Theory have any value as a TOE? - 02-02-2007, 04:25 AM

Actually I shouldn't say man "being" evil. Really it's just mankind "acting" evil. People cannot "be" evil because "evil" does not be. Evil is the imaginary nothing in the dichotomy between everything (1/0) and nothing (0) else. Evil is merely an illusion which we draw into and act out. When we realize the illusion, when we see our free will, we can set ourselves free, and exist in true good. True good is the paramount possible outcome where all is diverse but equal, in contradictory consistence eternal. Evil is the worst outcome and will continue to be imagined untill good is set free and reality made true. Nature is great by demonstration. THank you

Purveyor,
String theory is like that - most of the theories have been scribbled down and crumpled up because most of the authors are too embarrassed to reveal they were slightly drunk when they wrote them; what we are left with is a polished version which makes no claims at any definite result, this way they can get totally smashed on whatever substance they like so long as at the end of the day String Theory remains as a black box whose inner workings are not defined at all.

Its high time we abandon string theory and look at other alternatives. Can string theory explain entropy?? I doubt..

Prehaps it has served its purpose?Has it indicated a direction of where we should next
drop anchor!

It doesn't matter if you are high on alcohol or marijuana or entheogenic mushrooms, as long as you realize the truth, that man is all one united consciousness, and that perpetual energy is the basis for everything. If someone were to come up here and tell everyone that reality is all one unified whole and that perpetual energy is the basis for it all you all would have to agree with him. It's not hard to see the truth, and when you do, it should leave no doubt. What do you want to know?

Light does not travel in a crosshair like the pictures say. Light has the same form as DNA! That is no mystery and no coincidence. Light travels in a helix - two individual magnetic components caught in a dance that makes light out of pure time. Every single photon contains a mirror image of our universe, but like the mandelbrot set, every one is slightly different. And within these offshoots are a million more photons, and it splinters more from there, teeming in infinite profusion. That is how all possible events are imagined and realized. Our entire universe is just one photon within another universe. The higher up you go, the more aware you become and the faster light travels. Eventually you reach a state of pure consciousness where the speed of light is 1/0 - the absolute greatest value and the highest density of time! In this realm, all things are happening all at once.

The theory of everything that's correct is the one that defines everything. The theory of everything that's correct is the one that reminds us of the meaning of life and the spirit of truth. The theory of everything that's correct is the one that brings peace on earth and (techno)logical harmony. If the theory of everything does not do that, then it is not the right theory of everything. If the theory of everything does not show us how to go faster than the speed of light, then it is not the right theory of everything. The theory of everything is not a theory, it is everything! Think about how one thing is divided by nothing. Think about positive and negative infinity. Think about a magnet. When we all know a magnet and what it does, how it keeps peace and how it causes time to propel, we will all be at the next step in our evolution
