How about this, you could physically force the Government [the MPs'/Congressmen] out of the building, because they have physical reality, but you could not force government out of the building simply because it has no physical existence.

Let's go a little further...
I have mentioned the four forces that manipulate pure energy to form the things we perceive as having form and structure.
So, this pure energy is called Electro-Magnetic Radiation, EMR can be found as the four forces, they are the 'Strong force' the 'Weak force'
the 'Electro-magnetic force' and 'Gravity'
By acting upon one another everything in the Universe is formed.
Had these four forces not existed then there would be no physical matter at all and there would just be pure energy.
Without these forces, everything would have remained in a state of free energy and we would not be here.

"V" hello,
I have read all previous post and am in agreement with SOME of what you have said. The forces that hold reality together are hopefully someday going to be unified and we will know more. As far as a physical reality I can go you one better and tell you that in theory even it does'nt truly exist. You know enough to realize just how far down the rabbit hole QM can take us. *Matrix reference sorry*
I especially like your Govt analogy. It is alot like saying you make me angry...does anger exist? Where is it? can you put this anger in you hand and look at it. No. Words are just that words but we use them to describe our world around us. You say time does not exist and that time travel will never be possible, you may be right humans may never travel approaching @ speed c but in theory It has been discussed a plausible and unless you are privy to some new fancy mathmatics and physics or new evidence to dispute the plausibilty of it you must at least contend that although space/time does not exist as a physical tangible element given the right size conditions and speed things may in theory warp time. Or what ever you choose to call it. *edit to correct spelling of does'nt

The things I see tell me that there will not be a single unified theory, more a pair of twinned theories that will resolve all the problems, this I also feel is in keeping with the way observable things work across all scales, twinning ensures reality comes about.
It is in simple terms [to appease the creationists here] as if the words 'Let there be light' were subtly changed to... 'Let there be light and can we have some candles just in case?'

Can you demonstrate which type of EM-radiation would give rise to the effects of gravity, and also explain why we can not yet detect them as such.

The Four Forces

So, this pure energy is called Electro-Magnetic Radiation, EMR can be found as the four forces, they are the 'Strong force' the 'Weak force', the 'Electro-magnetic force' and 'Gravity'.
The strong force, the weak force and gravity are not different forms of expression of EMR. The strong force binds the particles of atomic nuclei together. The weak force is responsible for radioactive decay. Gravity is an expression of mass. EMR is photons.

Re: The Four Forces
The strong force binds with energy derived from EMR [the purest form of energy] The weak force is the decay, the 'radiation' is also energy it is derived from EMR. Gravity is mass, mass is formed by the strong force keeping pure energy 'in check', this forms matter, matter is then itself bound by the remaining pure energy that produces gravity.

You are close, but the cigar remains in the box, inviolate.

On V-Bird
To All:
I don't know why V-Bird is posting as he is, but my advice is to take everything he says with a large grain of salt.

Re: On V-Bird
Are you having difficulty accepting or refuting me?
I'm not sure which, the former is just a failure of intellect the latter is also a failure of intellect, but to a lesser degree.
As I have said in another thread, give me one single formula for the construction of time.
Please try, but you will die unfulfilled in the ambition.

Re: V-Bird's Posting Privileges Restricted
Which is a great shame, I know new knowledge and radical thinking is hard on those that cling to their beliefs but i find it ironic that i am cast away from here because I do exactly what Darwin did to the Creationists of the past, challenge the accepted vision of the World and Universe.
Funny old World!

For the time being I will stay away from here, I see not a lot of point in trying to explain something that is so glaringly obvious to me, yet seemingly beyond all but a few here.
Goodbye for now.

...but i find it ironic that i am cast away from here...
And yet...here you are!
You might find FFA better suited for you. Except for not straying too far or too long off topic, there's mostly no moderation here. You can say and do pretty much as you like, including taking pot shots at the admins and moderators.
Of course, it's also an opportunity to demonstrate you're ready to have the restrictions removed.
In Welcome visitors you asked why you'd been restricted. In Message 4 you said, "The acid on my tongue is as natural as the serpents and will fall from the sky much like Doves do when they annoy the hell out of me on a Sunday Morning." I had no way of knowing at the time whether this was truth or hyperbole, but naturally such a style will inevitably conflict with the Forum Guidelines, e.g.:
  1. Respect for others is the rule here. Argue the position, not the person. The Britannica says, "Usually, in a well-conducted debate, speakers are either emotionally uncommitted or can preserve sufficient detachment to maintain a coolly academic approach."
Your posts exhibited a number of violations of this guideline, and you effectively combined this with violations of guideline 2:
  1. Debate in good faith by addressing rebuttals through the introduction of additional evidence or by enlarging upon the argument. Do not merely keep repeating the same points without further elaboration.
Also, your posts contain what appear to be obvious errors, to the point where in very short order myself, Eta Carinae and Beercules decided you either didn't know what you were talking about or were being purposefully obscure. Then your Message 119 gave me cause for concern.
Your behavior in FFA and the other permitted forums will determine if and when the restrictions are lifted.
