There IS something seriously wrong with our understanding of physics. Our understanding of gravity is backwards, for one thing, which seriously 'overcomplicates' things by allowing all kinds of singularities, which simply multiply as you delve into them. But a true understanding of the 'matter is energy' concept would help by dispelling the notion of 'particles' as any kind of solid piece of *anything* (Quarks or whatever). Everything 'material' is a collection of whirling standing waves of energy. And I hear your question: understanding physics to an acceptable degree should be a task that can be finished. Not a parking lot where you go along scraping up the snow in front of you and dumping it behind you. If you are doing that (every problem unearths two new problems) then you're not using the pointy end of your stick. john

For the answer, read "The road to reality" by Roger Penrose, pub. by Vintage. After 1048 pages you will start to get a clue. --Mike Jr.

To criticize is to volunteer - propose empirically valid solutions. Physics is rich with difficult questions because it is a viable science. Jews have a direct line to god - the "chosen people" - complete with a substantial pile of god-dictated text and hundreds of thousands of pages of non-indexed commentaries. They hoo-ha celebrate direct god-driven miraculous deliverance from Egypt. Roughly 1938 through 1944 some six million Jews were exterminated by German political agenda. The vast majority of those slaughtered were ultra-religious Jews who went to their deaths singing the Shma. The curiosity is not whether god was otherwise preoccupied doing his hair or something. The curiosity is how the Holocaust never made it into the religion. It's doublethink, the cherished ability to hold two utterly conflicting ideas in your head without contradiction. Armenians were the first declared Christian nation. They were uniformly, unwaveringly fanatic about it from that day forward. Turks cleansed the world of at least one million Armenians - and mechanistically heinously so. This was a test of faith not an empirical contradiction of belief. Europe scythed the New World, exterminating at least 30 million indigens. The US vigorously reduced its Indian population. Where were their gods? Africa is a bleeding ulcer. Where are its gods? Hindus have 36 crores of gods - 360 million deities. How is India doing? Physics has a large pile of difficult questions because physics is not fraudulent. However... defective theory like quantized gravitation and Standard Model supersymmetry deny their subservience to empirical testing. This evidences physics' transition from science to "christ is coming back - just you wait." We will see if the future addresses questions or elevates them to holy writ (the anthropomorphic universe). -- Uncle Al http://www.mazepath.com/uncleal/ (Toxic URL!

The proton is a standing wave of energy that perfectly resonates with the frequency of space, absorbing energy from it thus creating gravity
