Hi Tomrod and Clay,
I wasn't aware that I was using philosophy. I thought I was using logic. But now that I'm aware this sort of discussion is philosophy I will try to refrain from using it. O.K. sorry again. Oh and Clay I wasn't even aware that you had a news section. I guess I didn't look. Now that I've seen it I'll go have a look regularly. It looks really good.
The following though is a discussion I'm having on four different forums. It shows where I'm up to on this theory and if anyone would like to add a comment to it I would appreciate it.
Hi again FreeAction and Mike,
You have stated the funny thing I've found out about my theory (which I have posted on various forums). The fact that my experience is extremely limited was by no means unannounced (by myself). I even made up my own terms like "burnout" because I was unaware of actual terms (which I now no to be where a star exhausts it's nuclear energy - which I have just read that atoms also have this nuclear countdown - is this right? I called it a "burnout" -
so sue me - generic cola).
But in the last month I have found a half-hearted attempt, to a complete lack of attempt, of people, who know better, to interpret my immature explanations. Mike was one of two who couldn't read between the lines at all, but don't worry, one forum wouldn't even lower themselves to even comment despite my repeated attempts (which I found rather strange because, from what I saw, their enjoyment with trashing the ignorant was overwhelming. My stubbourn nature would have been a prime candidate I thought). There were a few people who humored my rantings though.
All that aside, perhaps I was getting a little upset and taking things too far. My frustration can be forgiven though given the treatment, I feel at least, I recieved. There isn't an answer to everything experience I'm feeling (like that movie 'pi', have you seen it, where he looks at the sun and goes mad over the number pi). My theory I feel brings up numerous new questions, in my mind, that are even harder to explain than the answers it may or may not produce.
From what I've seen spacetime curves at a black hole. (BTW Mike I never stated that spacetime curves back on itself. In my knowledge this would produce a negative number, correct? Few would see this to be an acceptable reasoning, would they? A zero result to the question of spacetime curvature, of black holes, is equally unreasonable isn't it?)
So if I can deduce the possibilities that remain: Either spacetime curves infinitely or spacetime is curved to an amount that is so small (or large?) it almost appears infinite.
Well I guess it has to be infinity otherwise light couldn't redshift infinitely (right?).
In my professors opinion (*see note), if I could hit the singularity at v=c time would be going so slowly but it would still be a value you could calculate. Perhaps 1 second acording to *me* would be equal to 1 billion^n years at the singularity.
He thinks that beyond the EH is either nothing or it's not anything of particular importance. I gather he means it doesn't go anywhere spectaular (like a wormhole or lead to a magical path of gold).
It's not unrealistic for him to have this opinion because what the hell does infinite spacetime mean? Well this is the point I would like to study. My theory is really basically my opinion. It details my immature theoretic description of what infinite spacetime is.
I can work it out with the following reasoning:
I'm sure that matter cannot exist there (at least in the same sense we experience it). The matter is converted to energy (i think..). I've just read that gravity is not a force. Rather the 'pull', we experience by gravity if we fall down, is due to spacetime curvature. So the fact that, at the singularity, there is no matter is irrelevant (this was hard for me to understand). Matter density relates to spacetime curvature. So if you squeeze matter into a point where you have maximum possible density, a black hole, spacetime curves to infinity (or a maximum spacetime curvature).
Therefore you have infinite gravity, infinite spacetime and infinite energy (or the most energy you can have). But still no 'matter'.
Time and space, at this point, does not 'disappear', it's just that the point of refence is infinity. Anything that may, or may not, happen is relavant to infinity so relative viewpoints aren't controlled in the same way they are in this finite spacetime.
I don't know guys, which ever way I look at it, with my limited mathematical skills I keep coming up with the same answer.
What do you think?
Josephine
