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

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

It all begins on a blackboard, and gets tested eventually, and either demonstrated or disproved through astronomical observation, or particle accelerators.

Unfortunately with the cancelation of the SSC, there's a gap where theory has gotten well ahead of the ability to test it, while we wait for the new CERN supercollider to come on line. It's possible there may be experimental evidence of other dimensions.

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

Evolution has nothing in particular to do with Social Science; try three doors down at the Paleontologists, four doors down with the geologists, and five doors down with the evolutionary biologists.

Heidegger is the man. Sein und Zeit.

[RightWhale]

Wasn’t even thinking of Evolution. Just Darwinism.

[ANGGAPO]

My mind is now boggled.

[Strategerist]

I don’t consider Darwinism a term that describes anything, really. It’s more of a projection.

[mutley]

Pelosi space.

Indeed, and agreed.. But, on to speculative nonsense...I have long thought that the unification of relativity and quantum theory can be found in the understanding of time, as well as, the explanation of wave-particle duality. But I'm just a dumbass, so what do I know?

whoa, I’m here again ?

No, it does not ALL get tested by either. And especially the astronomical observation scenario is particularly suspect. I observe a certain velocity in a galactic arm. I don't see enough mass to cause that velocity. I posit that there is unseen mass: dark matter. I look at another galaxy and note that it too has an unexplainable velocity. That proves that Dark Matter exists. I bet that the next time I look at a galactic arm's velocity I will discover more Dark Matter.

And, thus Dark Matter is proven through astronomical observation.

[null and void]

If you have multiple dimensions of time it would be nearly impossible to prove whether events are synchronous, which would really screw up the meaning of the word "is".

Mr. Clinton? Izzat you?

That's a very good way to put it, and I agree, to a large extent.

LOL.

Multiverse?

[newguy357]

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

Physics has nothing to do with Darwinism. By the way, the computer which you used to post your reply only works because of the sham theories of physicists.

[Bullish]

Well, that clears that up.

“You been two-timin’ me, Moe!”
“Dang, Maude, I was afraid you dimension that!”

[R. Scott]

Plato credited it to Socrates, so I assume he originated it.

[Hardastarboard]

You know, we mathematicians have got to learn to promise crap we can’t deliver.

Physicists and biologists have been doing it for decades.

The problem mathematicians have is that you can't postulate about stuff that can't be seen or proved. You have to have numbers to back it up. Those are pretty undeniable. Theories about the origin of species can be anything I like because I don't have to "prove" it.
