Moving Dimensions Theory--Not String Theory--Satisfies Einstein's Requirements for a Physical Theory
"Bill Hobba" wrote in message ... Moving Dimensions Theory accounts for and unifies general relativity and quantum mechanics by postulating that the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions in units of the Planck length at the rate of c. Moving dimensions theory is utter nonsense as has been pointed out to you time and time again. It is semantic gibberish that results from the fact you do not understand what move means. Rest of junk maliciously cross posted to multiple groups snipped. Bill If the universe is expanding, the physical universe then I can imagine that our mental construct, dimensions are expanding, in a sense, and the idea is interesting and helps remove artificial fixed points or grids in space as absolutes. Now, I'm kind of blown away by the idea of expanding dimensions but it is trivial compared to man's soul and finding if there is a true personal entity that could rightfully be called God, or Holy Spirit, or Great Spirit.

Sometimes a specific coordinate is referred to as a dimension eg the time dimension. One can probably imagine a coordinate as expanding or contracting or even moving but such is always relative to another coordinate system - absolute expansion or movement does not exist - at least as far as any experiment that has ever been done to detect it is concerned (caveat - QM does define an intrinsic length scale but that is another issue). What you may be thinking of is the distance between points expanding. If that is what you mean then it is best to express it that way. and the idea is interesting and helps remove artificial fixed points or grids in space as absolutes. In GR coordinate systems (or grids in space as you call it) are not absolutes. In fact it is based on the principle of general covariance which says the exact opposite. Now, I'm kind of blown away by the idea of expanding dimensions You would be even more blown away by the actual science. but it is trivial compared to man's soul and finding if there is a true personal entity that could rightfully be called God, or Holy Spirit, or Great Spirit. I post out of sci.physics.relativity which is a science forum. I generally leave issues related to religion to others. But for the record I believe in the God of Spinoza. Thanks Bill

Forgetting my choice of the word 'sense' for the sake of discussion: I meant that I have always imagined that if space and time were expanding then they would change coordinates in the human-created grid, the cartesian coordinate system (I think that is correct) ... but it occurs to me now because of the posts here, that the grid itself could be imagined to be expanding along with the actual universe.

Maybe just a mental game or exercise or fantasy ... but interesting to me, at least. It seems that for any coordinate system to expand it would have to be in relation to some other standard, perhaps only another coordinate system but it is possible to think of an expanding universe with an expanding grid which is imperceptible because of the lack of a reference system.
