Move On
Rrhain, I'm not going on your segway. You're simply hijacking this thread with repeated same-oles that you're not going to get any more answers on. Move on or I'll simply ignore you. I'm not interested at this time in photons or learning more about them.

Re: BUMP FOR ANSWER TO QUESTIONS BY SOMEONE
Then the solution to settling this debate is about the properties of space and what property of space causes it to curve.
1. Buzsaw says any observance of curvature is perception of forces, matter and energy existing in space/area, space having no properties capable of curvature; it's only property being existing unbounded area.
2. Conventional physics says space itself curves, has force and energy properties and is finite.

Re: BUMP FOR ANSWER TO QUESTIONS BY SOMEONE
This makes no difference to anything in terms of the bar potentially curving or not. But it does mean that your dumass "model" of the universe does not include time. Quite a critical ommission I would say.
I have never denied that the time dimension does not exist. You are misrepresenting my position which is that time has no bearing on whether my bar model will curve or not in a 3D spatial dimension universe.
I am saying that the bar has no non-spatial dimensions which are capable of causing it's curvature, and that includes time. Therefore it would extend continuously without curving if enough energy and matter were applied to it.
This debate is about spatial dimensions of a bar. To insist that the non-spatial dimension of time must be considered in this bar model debate is to apply equal spatial value to time dimension that actual spatial dimensions have. As I have shown to be the case this essentially renders space as two dimensional since length and width become one one dimensional line and height becomes the other one dimensional line over time since the height dimensional line curves to become parallel to the width/length line capable of curvature. That's why conventional science uses a 2D model to model the universe.
For the bar model to curve it's length dimension must be curved and it must curve continuously if extended. It can never have three uncurved dimensions. My bar model is straight, uncurved and not bended. Imo, there is no property of space capable of causing curvature to the model.
For the above reason I repeat: This debate will not be resolved so long as there are different POVs on what the properties of space are. Space is invisible. Imo, nobody can empirically establish what the properties of space are or whether it does indeed curve.
I am being maligned as ignorant and bullheaded because I don't consider space to have energy and force properties, it being only space/area in which forces, energy and matter exist.
As I understand the position of my counterparts, it is allegedly forces and energy properties of space which allegedly causes it's alleged curvature.

You dispute any curvature whatsoever, even local curvature, so I figured that 'flat' was a good way to describe your view of the universe.
1. All space is inclusive in the Universe. My hypothesis of space is that it is infinite area in which all forces, matter and energy exist. It would be infinitely high, infinitely wide and infinitely deep. I don't know how that equates to flat.
2. I don't deny local curvature of the surface of the earth and other global bodies. However I do deny curvature of the axis of the earth and global bodies. The axis is straight and not curved regardless of the size of the body.

But what makes you think space can't do it itself?
And what do you mean by "straight"? If it isn't the path a photon takes in vacuum, what is it?
1. Space's only properties is that it exists and that it is area in which all forces, energy and matter exists. Space/area has no property in it capable of curvature. You cannot empirically refute that, nor can I empirically substantiate it.
2. A straight dimension of a 3D spatial model is a line between two points not bended and not curved.
As I understand, it is the non-spatial dimension of time which is allegedly attributed to space's alleged curvature; curvature which allegedly originated at the singularity event of the alleged BBT.

Re: Parahelion of Mercury Prediction

So now we agree that I had understood your concept of space, can you go back and answer the questions I raised in Message 255?
1. All I can say is that Einstein's prediction of the parahelion of Mercury was based on whether the GR prediction of it's phenomenal behavior was correct. That is debatable and this isn't the place to go in depth on that. This depends on whether GR space theory is correct.
2. How can a universe spaceview be flat with three infinite immeasurable dimensions? Does that mean that a straight line between two points existing within a such spaceview will be uncurved or does it mean that the universe is flat?

What do you mean by " . if enough energy and matter were applied to it."? It's not really a fair question though, is it? They're just magic words you use to make it sound like what you say has some of them thar' edjumacated airs to it, ain't they? After all, it's the big words everyone else uses that make their arguments compelling, ain't it? Buz, they are meaningless gibberish, and if you weren't trying so hard to avoid thinking about the subject you're talking about you might recognize that you don't really know what you're talking about.
You're talking about a straight line. You think that the rigidity of a steel bar makes for a better argument than an imaginary line. It doesn't. Not one of us here on the other side of the argument requires a model as clumsy as your steel bar to picture exactly what you are trying to say. We all get it. It's wrong. You don't need to use analogies with us. We don't mistake your point. it's perfectly clear. It's wrong.
1. Enough energy/matter applied simply means for it to extend to a length dimension relative to the model which is a bar capable of continuous extension.
2. Those words are no more unfair and magical than many words and phrases which conventional science uses relative to various models on various topics.
3. A rigid 3D bar has other properties applicable to my argument which an imaginary geometric one dimensional line does not have. It has mass properties which must be changed for the ends of it to connect. If you curve or bend the length dimension of a not curved, not bended rigid straight bar the mass of it is affected.

In your model space is just a vast, property less expanse. It goes off in every direction forever.

No one disagrees (who's competent to be having this argument).
I agree, except that my space model has properties (and I am competent enough to remain unempirically refuted/KO'd thus far, one vs a dozen or so of counterparts having lasted in the space sluggout ring for going on 10 rounds. )
Properties of space:
1. Space exists.
2. Space is infinite in all directions, having at least 3 infinite spatial dimensions.
3. Space is area capable of being occupied by all existing energy, forces and matter.
4. Space has an infinite non-spatial time dimension.

Re: Incompetent Or Nonconformist?
[qs=Straggler]1) Any model that includes time and 3 spatial dimensions is necessarily a 4D model. Regardless of curvature. Regardless of bent straight bars.
I would agree.
2) Use of 2D analogies are explanatory aids not assertions or even suggestions that reality is actually 2D
Agreed but 2D model is not analogous to the universe. No way.
3) The inclusion of a time component is not the cause of any form of curvature. Nobody is suggesting that representing time results in spatial dimensions folding in on themselves, becoming parallel dimensions or any other of the nonsense that you have suggested
No. Nobody is suggesting it because they don't want to admit that that is the effect that 4D has.
1. The alleged expansion of three spatial dimensions and one time dimension space originated at the BBT singularity event. (allegedly)
2. Curvature of spatial three dimension space allegedly began at the BBT singularity event.
3. The BBT singularity allegedly originated from a submicroscopic spherical compression which expanded likely into a curved formed mass.
4. If the length, dimension, the depth dimension and the height dimensions of the curved form become curved, [b]the time dimension allows for the dimensions (in time) to become parallel which would be three parallel geometric RM lines rather than Euclidean lines at 90 degree angles to one another.
5. En effect, you have three spatial dimensions (parallel geometric lines) capable of curvature and one time dimension which allows time for the curvature from the BBT singularity event. If the expansion were sudden factoring no time, the dimensions would expand geometrically 3D, all dimensions being at 90 degree angles to one another rather than parallel.
NOTE: After thinking it over since my last explanation of this I have revised from 2 parallel spatial D lines to 3 parallel spatial lines which are effected. It still has the effect of 2 dimensions, due to the geometric lines being parallel.
The problem is whether space has the property of curvature. That is the problem we will likely never come to terms on in this debate.
Again, the buck stops with whether the BBT is factual or not. I say not, because there was allegedly no place for the energy to have existed, no time for it to have happened and no area for it to expand to. That's magic and fantasy in the extreme.
Straggler writes:
Do you still claim that it is all a big con developed by physicists to "obfuscate" and deceive?
Or has this thread at least had some positive educational effect on you?
1. I believe physicists have, in good faith, devised unrealistic and in some cases, extremely complicated and debatable hypotheses for lending support to the BBT. Space curvature and expansion is paramount to the BBT. Without them it would have no basis.
2. Thanks to you and each of my counterparts in this debate, I have had to learn a lot about your POV and research scientific terminology etc. I know you and others have expended a lot of time and effort into this debate and appreciate the input whether or not we agree.
3. This thread has given me a lot to think about, like on nights when I lay in bed, the body resting and the mind very busy.
