      IN THE INTEREST OF FINDING THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING:
      SOME THINGS MODERN SCIENCE DOES NOT APPARENTLY KNOW:
      Consider the following:
      a. Numbers: Modern science does not even know how numbers and certain mathematical constants exist for math to do what math does. Surely the very nature of reality has to allow numbers and mathematical constants to actually exist for math to do what math does in this existence. (And nobody as of yet has been able to show me how numbers and certain mathematical constants can come from the Standard Model Of Particle Physics).
      b. Space: Modern science does not even know what 'space' actually is nor how it could actually warp and expand.
      c. Time: Modern science does not even know what 'time' actually is nor how it could actually warp and vary.
      d. Gravity: Modern science does not even know what 'gravity' actually is nor how gravity actually does what it appears to do. And for those who claim that 'gravity' is matter warping the fabric of spacetime, see 'b' and 'c' above.
      e. Speed of Light: 'Speed', distance divided by time, distance being two points in space with space between those two points. But yet, here again, modern science does not even know what space and time actually are that makes up 'speed' and they also claim that space can warp and expand and time can warp and vary, so how could they truly know even what the speed of light actually is that they utilize in many of the formulas? Speed of light should also warp, expand and vary depending upon what space and time it was in. And if the speed of light can warp, expand and vary in space and time, how then do far away astronomical observations actually work that are based upon light and the speed of light that could warp, expand and vary in actual reality?
      f. Photons: A photon swirls with the 'e' and 'm' energy fields 90 degrees to each other. A photon is also considered massless. What keeps the 'e' and 'm' energy fields together across the vast universe for billions of light years? And why doesn't the momentum of the 'e' and 'm' energy fields as they swirl about not fling them away from the central area of the photon? And why aren't photons that go across the vast universe torn apart by other photons, including photons with the exact same energy frequency, and/or by matter, matter being made up of quarks, electrons and interacting energy, quarks and electrons being considered charged particles, each with their respective magnetic field with them?
      Electricity is electricity and magnetism is magnetism varying possibly only in energy modality, energy density and energy frequency. So why doesn't the 'e' and 'm' of other photons and of matter basically tear apart a photon going across the vast universe?
      Also, 'if' a photon actually red shifts, where does the red shifted energy go and why does the photon red shift? And for those who claim space expanding causes a photon to red shift, see 'b' above.
      Why does radio 'em' (large 'em' waves) have low energy and gamma 'em' (small 'em' waves) have high energy? And for those who say E = hf; see also 'b' and 'c' above. (f = frequency, cycles per second. But modern science claims space can warp and expand and time can warp and vary. If 'space' warps and expands and/or 'time' warps and varies, what does that do to 'E'? And why doesn't 'E' keep space from expanding and time from varying?).
      g. Energy: Modern science claims that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it's one of the foundations of physics. Hence, energy is either truly a finite amount and eternally existent, or modern science is wrong. First Law Of Thermodynamics: "Energy can neither be created nor destroyed." How exactly is 'energy' eternally existent?
      h. Existence and Non-Existence side by side throughout all of eternity. How?
      * ADDED NOTE: My current TOE idea can potentially answer all of these above items, and more, in a logical, coherent and inter-related manner. And wouldn't one expect the true TOE of existence itself to be able to do that? What other TOE idea in known existence can currently do that? Surely not the General or Special Relativity Models nor even the Standard Model of Particle Physics.
      TOE IDEA: (Short version): [currently dependent upon the results of my gravity test]:
      The 'gem' photon is the eternally existent energy unit of this universe.
      The strong and weak nuclear forces are derivatives of the electromagnetic ('em') interactions between quarks and electrons. The nucleus is a magnetic field boundary. 'Gravity' is a part of electromagnetic radiation, gravity acting 90 degrees to the 'em' modalities, which of course act 90 degrees to each other. 'Gravity' is not matter warping the fabric of spacetime, 'gravity' is a part of spacetime that helps to make up matter. The gravity and 'em' modalities of matter interact with the gravity and 'em' modalities of spacetime and the gravity and 'em' modalities of spacetime interact with the gravity and 'em' modalities of matter.
      I am open to any and all theory of everything ideas that can potentially answer all those above items in a logical, coherent and inter-related manner. Currently, as far as I am currently aware of, there are no others but my own.
      GRAVITY TEST: (Short Version):
      Direct a high powered laser 90 degrees through an electric field and magnetic field polarized as such to nullify the 'em' of the laser. "IF" my current TOE idea is correct, a gravitational black hole would become evident. (The 'gem' photon being the energy unit of this universe that makes up everything else in existence in this existence.)

    The thing about alchemy is that, yes, it was literal in the sense that they were trying to turn base metals into gold, which would have undermined the ‘system’ but it is also metaphorical: if we are able to learn the secrets of life and reality, that would also undermine the system, in a much more fundamental way. I would argue that mysticism is much more dangerous to the ‘system’ than any quantity of physical gold. Part of the reason for witch trials and persecution of unorthodox ideas over history.

      This was my understanding of alchemy too.

The different elements, the syntax of their concoctions and other general terms had a mystical translation.

      His brain it's not on a different level. Stop lying. He removed all other distractions from life so that he can just sit and think without judgement. Sacrifices were made. The fool tried hard to find immortality through alchemy but realized it was impossible at some point. I will say, who knows what he would have found with the chemistry and biology like we know today. It was because he was secretive and did his own experiments in private that nobody interrupted his thoughts.

    A quart mug is a type of drinking vessel that has a capacity of one quart, or 32 fluid ounces, which is equivalent to four cups or two pints. This unit of measurement is commonly used in the United States and is sometimes used to serve beer or other beverages in pubs or restaurants. The size of a quart mug can vary depending on the specific design, but it typically has a wide, rounded shape with a handle for easy drinking. In fact, Isaac Newton's mother famously claimed that his head could fit inside a quart mug.

    • @Pisti846
      @Pisti846 Рік тому +6

      That makes sense since the English System of measure is the system we currently use in the US and was the system used in England during Newton's life time. The US continued to use the English System after Great Britain and Canada switched over to the British Imperial System in the 19th century. When I was in elementary school in the 1960s we still called it the English System. Nowadays it is called the US Customary System. I am surprised Thoughty didn't know what a quart is.

    Hey Thoughty2, I have spent a considerable amount of energy on genealogy. Sir Issac was a cousin of my late wife. It appears he has had some number of nieces and nephews, but never had a girl friend. He was childless. He may have had Asperger's Syndrome. I am almost positive he had Alpha 1 Anti Tripsin Deficiency, as it ran through the family. I will speculate that there is a good chance Sir Issac's Cause of Death (COD) was some form of Parkinson's Disease. A1A Disease (short name), is a host carrier for at least 20 other well known diseases, like Parkinson's. Many people with A1A will do cutting edge almost crazy things. So his drinking metals hardly seems odd, given his genetic code. Finally, many of Issac's cousins, to this day, have had genius level IQ.

His 2nd great grandfather John Clark Newton (1520-1563) had two sons - Richard (1575-1641) whos son was Isaac Newton (1606-1642) who was the father of Sir Isaac Newton. For the other son George Newton (1554-1600), he had a son called Christopher Newton (1584-1645) who had a son called Isaac Newton (1608-1650) who likewise had a son called Captain Isaac Newton (born 1632) who was my direct 9th great grandfather and also the 3rd cousin of Sir Isaac Newton. I hope that's of interest.

    I've found it fascinating that some folks can have such divergent interests and careers and do both well. Newton and the Mint, for example, but also novelist Anthony Trollope and his postal service innovations. Peter Ackroyd's NEWTON (part of the "Brief Lives" series) is a good overview of the man's life and work.

      I am one of those people, but I can't say that I do the things I do pretty well, only other people can tell if I did good on a certain things. I'm an electronics engineer and an author of some novels I've written throughout the years. Never have published anything though, only the people closest to me are able to access my archives. All the feedbacks have been good so far.
      I don't know how to describe it, but having multiple interests makes me less productive on other areas since I often get invested into something that I find fascinating such as studying engineering when I was at university. Ultimately I had to take a step down on writing novels when this interest spiked. It's like a dormant hobby that takes over me when triggered. But with time, I often find myself writing again for some reason. Man I'm really bad at explaining, you might find this confusing as hell. Lmao
