Why would any sane person consider time to be quantized? Time and space form a continuum meaning one cannot exist without the other. Have you never heard of time dilation or length contraction ? I dont think we can leave Einstein out of it, when discussing special relativity.

not to worry ... I'm quite sure that we will be able to rectify this glitch and return to the matter under discussion.

The dark energy problem is a prime example... space-time is as Minkowski and Einstein told us, a single phenomenon . this is made blindingly obvious when we use the term light-year, or light-second... Ask yourself. Is a light year a temporal distance, or a linear distance? The answer is...

Einsteins relativity already explains why the speed of light is a constant for all observers. I think I will stick with his version.

[The laws of physics and the speed of light must be the same for all uniformly moving observers, regardless of their state of relative motion. For this to be true, space and time can no longer be independent. Rather, they are "converted" into each other in such a way as to keep the speed of...

All the so called laws that relate to space-time and entropy are derived from what happens within the expanding instance of space-time which constitutes our reality, If space-time was instead contracting our reality and all those so called laws would probably need to be re-written. Until a...

Most of us have an opinion of what spacetime is, and a brief summation of my own opinion would be this... Time is not a standalone phenomenon, Einstein and Minkowski made that abundantly clear to us all. they both stated that spacetime, is a single phenomenon, which should not be mistakenly...

I will take a while longer to consider your nexus approach to the singularity problem. I believe with what I consider to be a reasonable degree of certainty, that I have solved the relativistic side of the big bang. Although I wish I had taken notes about what I believe started the original...

As an atheist I have no interest whatsoever in religious mumbo jumbo, and had you read my posts you would see that I did specify which proposed type of singularity I had an issue with. I am also a proponent of relativity and the existence of black holes, so can't help but wonder what made you...

"I most certainly believe that there was a before the erroneously named big bang, as there needs to be an elsewhere/time (...). " -- Curiosity "(...) there is not one shred of evidence to support the existence of these mythical beasts known as singularities." -- Curiosity

I'm pleased that we share some common ground, with our mutual distain of the suggested type of singularity, which supposedly initiated the birth of our universe. It will likely take me a while to digest your postulation, regarding the nexus, as although the brain fogging associated with the...

As the area of knowledge illuminated by science grows, so does the circumference of the darkness which surrounds it. Einstein ??? possibly?

In a contracting instance of spacetime the outermost galaxies must stay within the horizon of a contracting instance of space time and I believe as they are pushed closer together and toward their point of origin they will get hotter ang hotter, once again that sounds very much like negative...
