I'm more interested in this 5-dimensional Pringle idea, but the event horizon hologram is pretty damn sweet too.

Oh come off it. I already debated with someone about whether or not reality was an illusion, and it spiraled into complete nonsense.

I think that the star are all crystal spears fixed in place, orbiting around the earth, which is the center of the universe. It would help explain all of the science of the 16th century.

If the hologram theory helps explain our current crappy science, then its fine by me if scientists believe it. Even if its true, it doesn't change anything. The only way it changes things is if I worry about it.

Whoa whoa relax man. It's okay if nothing is real. We'll always have Paris, duder.

The problem with this idea is that it assumes several other theories are true... and it has no practical application. I wish scientists would give up this bullshit and work on creating sustainable energy and food, and work more on medical research to prolong human life. Even exploring outer space seems like a waste of time to me.

I'm not really upset about this, I am just generally mad about the arrogance of modern sciintists. We feel like we know everything and are close to discovering the secrets of the universe. I feel we are no where close. We don't know how to delay death virtually indefinatly, control the weather, have baseline prospertiy for all humanity, physically explored the universe, found a way to generate endless energy or food, created true emersive virtual realiy, or done anything else needed to think we have mastered our world before we can focus on time and space. Before we can master our world, focusing on time and space is wasting resources.

The true discovery and proof of the origin of the universe and humanity at this time would be useless. If we happen to stumble upon who to control time, that would open a pandoras box and I feel it would probably destroy us. I'm sure very smart people want to know about the origin of the universe and these things, I know I do. However, we simply  don't have the technology to know for sure, and I think spending money to reasearch these things so that scientists who worry can feel at ease or feel like they have an answer is throwing money away.

1. Why does it have to change things?

2. It almost certainly will change things.

Why do scientists have to work on what you want them to? Why can't they work on what interests them? If you care so much about sustainable energy, medical research, why don't you work on those.

Physics IS the most important science and it ALWAYS has pratical applications, even if you can't understand how yet. Poeple 100 years ago said Einstein's theory of relativity had no pratical applications. How wrong they were. It changed the world massively.

It is not bullshit just because you're not interested or can't understand it. I FUCKING HATE your argument. It makes me so angry.

1. If it doesn't. its useless.

2. Doubtful. Most of these obscure theories don't catch on. String theory changed scientist funding a bit but overall it changed nothing... I guess money could go to fund hologram theory. I didn't think of that.

I'm considering it. Being a scientist would be worthwhile and I'm pretty smart so I could probably do it, but alot of scintists piss me off... or at least writers for scientific magazines like Discover and Scientifc American, which I still read so I can stay up to date about mdeical advances ne wtheories like this ect. I'm mostly interested in biology though, so I like reading about animal experimnets that are actaully applicable to human life.

I'd continuing arguing becuase I am in a bad mood, but I don't know how to argue against F*** Hate. Goodbye.
