A Two-Time Universe? Physicist Explores How Second Dimension of Time Could Unify Physics Laws

My experience is that when an author references “Einstein’s” theory of relativity in the first couple of sentences then it’s usually junk science.

I bought a highly recommended two-volume text of the math background and saw immediately that there are some gaps in my math education that I am trying to cover. Right now I am working through a presentation of Clifford algebra. I’ll get back to you later. In the meantime, Guth inflation remains only a hypothesis to explain the lack of magnetic monopoles.

Date published was 5/15, not 5/17.

Jon Cary commented on this article that he read it before he hadn't read it.

where the demons live

Pelosi space.

That was Plato’s. Socrates, when he heard Plato’s characterization of him merely shook his head.

Darwinists are not located in the Physics Dept; try two doors down the hall in Social Science.

[Raymann]

How is this related to Darwin?

What? Is any attempt for people to explain the world around them heresy for you?

Personally I’d wait until the new CERN supercollider is online. Then we can see if gravitons actually do exist and then they can solve the GUT problem.

[Jacquerie]

Excellent point!

[Oberon]

the Darwinists keep coming up with outlandish ideas to try to explain their sham theory.

1. I'm a Bible-believing Christian.

2. Darwin has never had anything to do with physics.

3. Nothing in the posted article conflicts with a God-created universe.

Is it all right with you if theorists continue to try to unravel the mysteries of this very complicated universe God made for us?

[LibWhacker]

You’re way ahead of me, my friend. There are unbridgable canyons in my mathematical background that’ll never allow me fully understand this stuff!

[Tribune7]

Perhaps before it was written even.

A Two-Time Universe? I sense a Country and Western song coming on...

LOL, SOK (spit on keyboard!)

[true_blue_texican]

the mathematical proof of that claim

That's the problem with all this crap: it ONLY exists on the blackboard!! The real universe is quite different.

[RightWhale]

It’s a problem for sure. Since math is the language of these people, we must have enough math to understand them or just ignore them altogether. For slow math learners such as myself it means going over matrix algebra and calculus problems again and again while trying to make sense of tensor math and chiral space. Slowly, but there is progress.

Two-time physics removes the original anomaly without the need for an axion, Bars has shown, possibly explaining why it has not been found.

But does the "need" for dark matter still exist? And if so, how does it fit in?

See tagline...

[LibWhacker]

Good for you, RW! I greatly admire anyone who seriously undertakes any course of academic study outside of the classroom. Those are the true scholars, and they are few and far between.

[Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus]

Bars’ math suggests that the familiar world of four dimensions — three of space, one of time — is merely a shadow of a richer six-dimensional reality.

Anyone ever read Man and Time, by J.B. Priestly?

I have come to believe that college is good for collecting a reading list for later. Saves a lot of time if some learned people can at least point to some starting points. Something to think about: all the profs learned their stuff on their own, usually after being given some direction to start with.
