Dear Prof Hitterdale,
Thank you for the nice essay on " Time and consciousness "
You are observations are excellent,... "Understanding our preferences is important, but knowing the truth about reality is more important still."
Don't you feel defining "reality" is a bit difficult. Is it what you see, or touch , or through other senses or what told by others....? Good discussion sir.
Just I am diverting this topic.........
For your information Dynamic Universe model is totally based on experimental results.
With axioms like... No Isotropy; No Homogeneity; No Space-time continuum; Non-uniform density of matter(Universe is lumpy); No singularities; No collisions between bodies; No Blackholes; No warm holes; No Bigbang; No repulsion between distant Galaxies; Non-empty Universe; No imaginary or negative time axis; No imaginary X, Y, Z axes; No differential and Integral Equations mathematically; No General Relativity and Model does not reduce to General Relativity on any condition; No Creation of matter like Bigbang or steady-state models; No many mini Bigbangs; No Missing Mass; No Dark matter; No Dark energy; No Bigbang generated CMB detected; No Multi-verses etc.
Many predictions of Dynamic Universe Model came true, like Blue shifted Galaxies and no dark matter. Dynamic Universe Model gave many results otherwise difficult to explain
Have a look at my essay on Dynamic Universe Model and blog also where all my books and available for free downloading...
