A viable Explanation/specification of Gravity as a Requirement for a TOE

[Stephen]

A fundamental requirement for a TOE would be a viable explanation and specification of the cause of gravity. Abstractionist paradigm (AP) physics does not have a viable explanation or specification of the cause of gravity. Only the materialist paradigm of physics has a viable explanation and specification of the cause of gravity.

Is there really any viable explanation of gravity? It is still very much the "odd man out".

The reason it's different than all other things, has simply to do with "CENTER".

Any EXTENT from center (space, time, matter, energy), forgets one very simple fact.

Any movement off-center is an equal movement towards another center.

The Big Bang is one example. All but gravity, wrapped up in an infinitesimally small and infinitely dense "point", expanding from not one center, but an infinite number of centers, with GR predicting a "gravitational singularity" preceeding this "event".

The entire theory is oxymoronic, but it does point out one thing.

It may "appear" as though the "stuff of the universe" grows from each center, but the fact (gravity) still remains, that it doesn't REALLY leave.
