In the search for a unifying theory we could do a lot worse than start here.
I don't get your expectation that the audience at AF would understand what Noether's theorem is (or symmetry as you put it). The fact that you hold up Noether's theorem as a starting point for a GUT is also somewhat bizarre.
Anyone that actually understands Noether's theorem wouldn't just drop it into a sentence as you did. Are you fucking kidding? This isn't a mathematics symposium. Let me be clear on this; undergraduate math majors don't know dick about Noether, yet you act as if her theorem is common knowledge.
