isPermaLink="false">http://calitreview.com/?p=790#comment-98240</guid> <description>Thanks to ten solid years of study, and a theory: &quot;The Genesis of Relativity&quot;(@ freeornottobe.org), here are some answers:
Q1:“Why does mathematics work?”, “Why does logic work?”
A1:&#039;Math and logic are like building blocks, you can imagine then as geometric forms, they fit together in certain ways which can be continuously added onto. It is because of the consistency of the laws of space and time (which give us properties like distance and length, area and volume), that these maths and logics continue to work the same way. These laws of physics remain consistent (relatively -even light speed is increases with increased gravity), because they are forms of energy (spherical=particles, spirals=magnetism, circular spin/paddle effect of spinning magnetic field=Electro-motive force), which are all mutually inductive. Mutually inductive means that all forces are fundamentally patterns of motion, and can relay momentum from one to another. Energies change form at 90-degrees, so an electron moving creates a spiral magnetic pole at 90-degrees (tangent) to it direction, that pole spins, and an EMF is created at 90 degrees to that pole. This EMF is how electrons fortify one-anothers orbits in atoms, and it is how all atoms relay momentum back and forth, and &#039;Homogenize&#039; the geometries of the three forms of energy which make up our three visible dimensions, Magnetism, Electro-Motive Force, and Momentum (or Motion). That is basically Faraday&#039;s or Lenz’s law.
“What is the purpose of the universe?”  If you don&#039;t believe in God or a creator, then there simply is no purpose to existence or life. If you believe in God, then it is for God to grow, and have more experience, and also for us to grow and mature as souls to become companions to God. These are two parts of the same agenda. God never does anything for only one reason because everything is connected by God.
“What is the connection between mind and matter?”
The mind is the combination of all EM fields of all Neurons, which when as complex as the Human Mind, create a certain geometry (discussed in &quot;Genesis of Relativity) which causes reactions in a new, fifth dimension. This extra dimension of freedom of movement can account for the unique creative free-will of humans, and the confusing disconnection between matter and mind. It is important to understand that magnetic, electric, and motion forces always exist together. The magnetic pulses generated by Neurons all interact with one-another and therefore all Neurons communicate at light speed with all other Neurons. It is this combined energy pattern that forms the complex mind. It is a large dipole, toroid, with many tiny details.
&quot;It is very improbable, although not impossible, that someone sitting at home reading articles on the internet or watching documentaries can out-do their best efforts.&quot;
Maybe after many years of research, but a college education is not necessary, and sometimes debilitating actually.
&quot;My point is simple: there is no consistent theory describing black holes.&quot;
The Genesis of Relativity does:
When a star explodes, and there is enough matter, Neutrons can remain (due to there exceptional magnetic strength and gravity), and form a Neutron Rich mass. The expanding force of the nova super expands and cools the Neutron mass creating a &quot;Bose Einstein Condensate&quot; where particles can now occupy the same space (partially). Just like cannon balling in a pool, the force comes rushing back quickly and now it super compresses this super magnetic and gravitational COUPLED Neutron mass (magnetically coupled in pairs) into a smaller volume, creating an unusually strong magnetic field, much faster spin, and gravity. When an amount of uncoupled matter equal to the center mass exists on all six sides of the black hole (like in the MIT experiments), it can collapse the black hole. This is how galaxies multiply like cells (which has been observed).
When High Energy photons manage to contact a couple neutron pair (and not be absorbed into another uncoupled outer atom, formed into a new Neutron, or radiated during a &quot;Jet&quot;) then sometimes the Neutrons can uncouple, like the photons which could break down the Bose Einstein Condensate experiments.
&quot;There is no ’singularity’ there is no ‘infinite density’ (infinite anything does not and cannot exist) energy and mass are interchangable. What IS happening is that the visible dimensions of space are being folded in on itself.&quot;
I agree, except that the &#039;Folding&#039;, is the forming of more complexity in less space (Volume) by compressing more curvatures (particles) into less area (volume). Black holes are not point singularities (like Electrons may be) and there is not necessarily any connection to other universes or times, but the idea of traveling through energy channels between planets, stars and galaxies (their central black holes) is as valid as Quantum Tunneling. There definitely are magnetic waves coming from our sun. These make the channel. These channels could be used to guide propulsion technologies.

If light travels in a straight line and gravity can curve spacetime sufficiently (gravitational lensing) that if strong enough &#039;space&#039; folds in on itself - then of coarse light can&#039;t &#039;escape&#039;.
This does not require &#039;infinite&#039; density it does not require a point &#039;infinitely small&#039; it does not require that the laws of physics &#039;break down&#039; it simply requires a sufficient focus of energy/mass in one place to manipulate dimensions.
I&#039;m saying that spacetime itself is a medium through which atoms can exist.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is no &#8216;singularity&#8217; there is no &#8216;infinite density&#8217; (infinite anything does not and cannot exist) energy and mass are interchangable.

isPermaLink="false">http://calitreview.com/?p=790#comment-41176</guid> <description>Hello.  I am currently reading &quot;The Black Hole War&quot;, and there are a a couple of questions I have, if anyone can help me in simple language.  I understand a black hole to be basically spherical in space/time.  From this, I would have thought that the horizon was a &#039;larger sphere&#039; (obviously not in a physical sense, but only as a mathematical shape) surrounding the black hole. I think I understand that the information lost into a black hole is stored in the horizon, but the area in which the information is stored is only a quarter of the area of the &#039;spherical&#039; horizon, which is exactly the area of a flat circle with the same radius as the horizon &#039;sphere&#039;.  Am I correct in this idea?
Secondly, I understand that if anything entering the region of a black hole actually passes the horizon, there is no way out.  What then is Hawking radiation?  Is this coming only from outside the horizon&#039;s radius? If not, and there actually is radiation coming from inside the horizon&#039;s radius, how does it escape?
Thanks.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello.  I am currently reading &#8220;The Black Hole War&#8221;, and there are a a couple of questions I have, if anyone can help me in simple language.  I understand a black hole to be basically spherical in space/time.  From this, I would have thought that the horizon was a &#8216;larger sphere&#8217; (obviously not in a physical sense, but only as a mathematical shape) surrounding the black hole. I think I understand that the information lost into a black hole is stored in the horizon, but the area in which the information is stored is only a quarter of the area of the &#8216;spherical&#8217; horizon, which is exactly the area of a flat circle with the same radius as the horizon &#8216;sphere&#8217;.  Am I correct in this idea?<br
/> Secondly, I understand that if anything entering the region of a black hole actually passes the horizon, there is no way out.  What then is Hawking radiation?  Is this coming only from outside the horizon&#8217;s radius? If not, and there actually is radiation coming from inside the horizon&#8217;s radius, how does it escape?<br
/> Thanks.</p> ]]></content:encoded> </item> <item><title>By: John Dunford</title><link>http://calitreview.com/790/comment-page-1#comment-33603</link> <dc:creator>John Dunford</dc:creator> <pubDate>Sun, 19 Oct 2008 18:46:15 +0000</pubDate> <guid

Moreover, the Universe expanded not because of cosmic inflation &amp; dark energy, e.g. Friedmann models expand without inflation or dark energy. All of this is described in General Relativity (Hawking, Ellis - The Large Scale Structure of Space-Time; Misner, Thorne, Wheeler - Gravitation):-)
My point is simple: there is no consistent theory describing black holes. GR predicts singularities; therefore black hole is not a real solution. We believe it is very close to the “real” solution, but without Quantum Gravity we are not 100% sure.
Agreed with your last point.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>@Kent: According to Hawking &amp; Penrose there is no much difference between Black Hole and Big Bang singularities.

isPermaLink="false">http://calitreview.com/?p=790#comment-23995</guid> <description>@Hech Baan: You don&#039;t fully make sense but it might be wise at this stage to point out that there are big differences between the singularity at the Big Bang and the singularity of a black-hole. For example, the former has a much higher energy (in fact all the energy of the universe) and it expanded thanks to cosmic inflation &amp; dark energy. All of this is described in General Relativity.
@Dan Pasternak: In string theory, another universe only has an effect on our universe via. some very weak force(s)/coupling(s). I think two reasonable criteria that object A &amp; B exist in the same universe are: 1) object A must have the possibility of interacting with object B via. the four known fundamental forces, and 2) there must exist a possible path for which object A can reach object B. Both of these are not satisfied if object A &amp; object B exist in different universes of a multiverse described by string theory.
I would like to add one further comment to both. Although lively discussion on matters of particle physics &amp; cosmology is most welcomed, I remind you that the most intelligent men &amp; women in the past 100 years have analysed these problems thoroughly as a full-time occupation. It is very improbable, although not impossible, that someone sitting at home reading articles on the internet or watching documentaries can out-do their best efforts.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>@Hech Baan: You don&#8217;t fully make sense but it might be wise at this stage to point out that there are big differences between the singularity at the Big Bang and the singularity of a black-hole.

If the other universes have not any impact on our universes than from our logical point of view they are not exit.
String theory is ridiculous theory. If the vibration is the practices and the energy than the stings themselves what they are? Mass?  Energy? They must be something. If so you must to develop theory that explain them and the processes that occur inside them .If so you receive two kinds of mass, energy. The one is result of their vibrations and the second the sting themselves .from the logical stance we have logical failure.
In my point view unit theory must be totally mathematical abstract and not image, like the sting ( theory), of some things that exit in our surrounding world.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Multi universe is ridiculous, from the logical stance.

This is what Einstein’s gravity theory tells us. But it means that the theory is not consistent, for it predicts black hole and Big Bang  “singularities”. Therefore, we don’t have a consistent theory predicting black holes.
