String theory is highly theoretical, however, time isn't used as a dimension in just string theory.

Your point being?

All science is theoretical.

Also string theory was more or less validated in recent yeas thanks to Edward Witten and his M theory.

My point is simply that people call time a dimension with little consideration for what that means and poorly draw distinctions between that and spatial dimensions. Furthermore, dimensions past the 3rd act as little more than calculational tools and really aren't particularly relevant. It's buzz word Physics.

I was hoping to learn something if one of you feels otherwise.



That is not true. Theorizing is a very important step in the scientific process but does little more than create primarily weak ideas.

Yes, I suppose all science involves theory, but at a certain point there isn't enough experiment to differentiate between science and faith. This is what the conspiracy nutters mean when they call us gravity priests.

Because of the nature of the univer and our owrception of it, nothing is cwrtain thus everything is theoretical.

Holy cow, sleep time typos ftl.

no, one thread for each subject is much much better
gonna watch these videos

Ty, ive seen something like that before.

More of Edward. I want this mans brain put into a robot.
BTW part of this video debunks flat/stationary earth.
