    Angry Reality Demands Justice!

    Hey guys,

    The Theory Of Everything is a finite solution with infinite applications. What people don't seem to get is that it's not a T.O.M.E., theory of mostly everything, but a T.O.E., period. Metaphysics, physics, biology, astronomy, cosmology, religion, philosophy, and all other 'branches of thought' hold a piece to the puzzle. No matter how obscure and jagged that piece may be there's a place where it fits perfectly. I realize I'm being very general but that's not the point. People refute facts about the unexplained and unexplored because it's not mainstream. Yet, there was a time when intelligent men and women laughed at the notion that the earth was round! How can we be so arrogant! It's ironic that the very same people seeking a theory of everything will turn their noses at something. Everything rejects nothing! Well, I say we need to come together and put our egos aside. A theory of everything requires everyone. United we stand but divided we can't stand each other. At the same time we need the skeptics and devils advocates, don't get me wrong, I love challenging ideas. I keep an open mind but I'm not stupid. Anyways, theory of everything. Don't be stupid, but challenge the orthodox; be open minded, but keep that screen of skepticism;
    be confident, but not arrogant; be optimistic, but use your common sense. Finally go with your gut and be intuitive. Come together.

    United we stand but divided we can't stand each other.

    Thanks,

    Tesla

    I could'nt agree more. However, please help me with a small doubt.

    Have you tried solving a jigsaw puzzle with a few pieces missing? Each added piece tells where the others go, and if a few are missing many others can't find their places in the schema. In short, to be able to fit in all the pieces in a giant pattern we need to have all pieces.
    Stepping out of the metaphor, it seems to me that we need to have everything before we try to explain everything and come up with a comprehensive Theory of everything.
    Now since we are obviously nowhere close to knowing everything, just exactly where does that leave us in our quest for TOE?
    Im lost, could you help me out?

    we are very fortunate to have access to so much information today.

    Re: Reality Demands Justice!

    Rather than thinking of beginning with "everything" (yes, that is absurd), think of beginning with ONE THING.

    Put it all under the heading of "SOMETHING ABSOLUTE or ABSOLUTELY NOTHING" and ask the same question of each of them.

    "What would there be if you EXISTED?"

    You'll find that one of them is impossible and the other one isn't. Now you'll have one thing that you can begin with.

    You'll have one thing that is INDEPENDENT and NOT RELATIVE, which will give you two implications you can work with.
    "Just looking for an absolute and trying to understand the relatives,
    and if your relatives are anything like mine...!"

    Are you aware that jigsaw puzzle are one piece of a bigger picture before they are being cut into jigsaw pieces? The TOE is perhaps referring to the bigger picture instead of the smaller pieces of jigsaw puzzle. But then you might argue...the bigger picture is only one picture, there are many more pictures!!! So what is TOE? Yes, this is the difficult part. To find a picture that represent every picture.

    Dear David:
    I'm not sure what you mean by 'spam pop-ups', the only thing I can think of that you may be alluding to is an ensemble of alternative titles at the commencement of the issued faction (fiction based on fact) post; which exemplifies many messages and object lessons at many levels of metaphorical fiction as well as documented fact. Is that what you are referring to?
