physics / maths
There any real evidence that infinity exists such as
a mathematical proof for example : and if there is not
then is it not therefore presumptuous and unscientific for
a mathematician or physicist to automatically assume it does

According to Einsteins Special Theory Of Relativity nothing
can travel faster than light : galaxies however are accelerating
from each other beyond that speed : this does not violate Relativity
but since we are part of one such galaxy it follows that any movement
within it must also be beyond light speed : if moving in the same direction
So as I sit here typing this out I must be moving at beyond light speed too : in
the same way that I am also moving at 67 000 mph as that is the rotational axis
speed of Earth : if this reasoning however is not logical then where exactly is the flaw

Has time always been linear and if not why
And why cannot it have existed before the Big Bang
What is the difference between a Theory a Law and a Principle
Why is it that infinity minus infinity should equal infinity instead of zero
If time can exist in a Universe that is devoid of matter how can it be measured
Why cannot the Theory Of Gravity be referenced in the equation of the Standard Model
If only four elementary particles are needed to create a Universe what purpose do the rest serve

How can one infinity which is quantitatively less than another infinity still be infinitive :
such as for example the infinity of positive numbers compared to the infinity of all numbers

This letter has appeared in Psychology Now : Is it true as it infers Einstein is wrong :
I think Professor Tallis is right to be suspicious in Issue 87 of the mathematicians habit of
treating their tools as though they were real : A good example is Special Relativity, accounts of
which give the impression that time slows or speeds up according to your relative velocity : it doesn t
What we experience is due to atoms exchanging messenger particles the most familiar of which are photons :
That particles of light travel at the speed of light is a tautology but if the recipient is travelling at the speed of light
a message will never arrive : With out an exchange of particles nothing happens : atomic clocks for instance don t tick







A MIND IS LIKE A PARACHUTE : IT DOES NOT WORK UNLESS IT IS OPEN
