Do you know what "quanta" means? > If quanta is responsible for gravity then quanta physically exists. This is simply more of your absurd nonsense and the state of delusional denial in which you exist. You need quanta to exist for gravity but you don't want it to exist for the propagation of light or for the movement of a C-60 molecule, so it exists for gravity and then you simply state it doesn't exist for the propagation for light. More magic. If quanta is responsible for the gravity associated with the Earth then the light from the Sun is interacting with quanta. If quanta is responsible for the gravity associated with the Earth then a moving C-60 molecule is interacting with quanta. You are getting there, ever so slowly. Your admittance to quanta being the reason for gravity is a first step. Now all you have to do is understand what occurs to quanta when three dimensional space is occupied by matter and you will have Quanta Displacement. I realize you are years away from even attempting to understand this, but someone else in QM will figure it out for you, just like they have figured out quantum gravity for you.

So my > > conclusion is 100%correct. If I tell you that a cat has four legs like a lizard, but is a mammal, you should not draw the conclusion that mammals are lizards or that cats are lizards. Weinberg said that the electric field is LIKE a stress in a solid, but is a stress in space. You should not draw the conclusion that space is a solid or that electric fields are stresses in a solid. > > > Ken Seto > > > > > So if stress exits in space as weinberg claimed then space must be a > > > > solid.

If light interacting with some sort of "aether" is the cause of gravity then why is there gravity when there is no sun? It's always night on half the planet. This makes me believe that gravity is really not related to light. |
