First Things First: The Physics of Causality

Marcel-Marie LeBel

Jason, any idea how it all started?

Jason Wolfe

I don't think it ever did.

Jason Wolfe

I always thought that metaphysics was a much more reasonable source for the big bang, then all the intellectual craziness of the physics community with their big bangs caused by black holes and universes from nothing. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the Creator-God used a metaphysical-Astral realm to design this universe and set it up before "Letting their be light". Engineers design their products in a virtual environment. Why wouldn't God?

Jason Wolfe

Most of reality is invisible.

Jason Wolfe

The reality about how spacetime and gravity works is much more interesting than what you kind folks are working on.

Jason Wolfe

I think an event happens at a point, and the causal consequences travel outward, at the speed of light, like ripples on a pond.

Jason Wolfe

I'm really surprised that nobody in the physics community has wondered if the spacetime continuum is made of quanta of gravitons. It seems almost expected that they would expand at the speed of light into a spherical wavefront (similar to how the big bang expanded). How else would you explain the invariance of the speed of light? If expanding gravitons exist, then they are also the carriers of causality!

Jason Wolfe

The physics community went out of its way to insist that UFO's don't exist (even as Navy fighter pilots were chasing them) and fifty million witnesses. So a quantum gravity theory comes along that could explain the artificial gravity propulsion, but physicists don't even want to talk about that because the guy peddling the theory is a theist. So, we'll all have to wait around for a century or two while the physics community ignores people like me. You can peddle your bizarre theories about consciousness, when it was pretty simple to begin with. God/Creator creates the universe. Souls incarnate into this physical world, live for a while, then die and return to the Spirit World. But you guys want to make it as weird as possible with your Spinoza God, banging branes. Consciousness itself is "magic", so you want to diminish the MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER as something that is not important at all. Imagine the atheist physics community trying to abuse its authority into making people believe that their consciousness is not important.

The simple fact is that Western civilization is at a stand still because of the atheist physics community. We are in danger of collapsing because of your crap ideas!!!

Jason Wolfe

One of the problems with physics is that you have made it unnecessarily complicated, but didn't actually permit any breakthroughs. Even special relativity was all done with algebra.

I agree with Jason. Natures processes are simple. 'Physics' is complex because we're confused, clinging on the flawed ideas. Re; entropy. Our view is a parochial 'snapshot' in time. Consider; ALL those things which can only fall apart in out belief STARTED OFF 'apart', as the most fundamental particles! Time didn't 'reverse' for them to form, that's naïve. Consider nucleosynthesis. It's the polar opposite to the entropy we see now! Cyclic universe models are proving far more consistent that the old one most still cling to; The 'Big Bounce', Penrose, Turok etc, and most consistent of all the 'Discrete Field Model' (DFM) which reproduces all CMB peculiar anisotropies and seems able to unite SR,GR and QM in a simpler model. In that model w entropy and expansion are just PARTS of a coherent cycle, free of inconsistencies.

At ALL times in history 'doctrine' has proved wrong. it's still inconsistent now, why do we think it's suddenly right now and cling onto it?

there is no evidence for the existence of "ufo" or other alien civilizations, and physics has nothing to say here.

As Arieh Ben-Naim [1] says, time does not appear in entropy expressions. Not in the expression of Clausius, Boltzman, or Shannon. Entropy should not be credited with more "power" than it has.

Also, consider that time could well be just a perception.

It would be great if respected physicists Anthony Aguirre, Sean Carroll or Carlo Rovelli responded to my previous message!!

Interest point of view.
Well, the point is that time is relative so what you are saying, in my point of view, is interest because your vision of a difference in time equation respect to real time can be seen as a relative time in the equations, that can't catch the total reality of the global time. This is a good intuition, but it is complicate to explain why there is a part of reality in your perception of things for me.
The second point, you are physically right and is a good critics anywhere I have found in my works that your is a point a point of view in the end: in my work (https://www.academia.edu/144844469/Quantum_Uncertainty_Plancks_Constant_and_Ontological_Insights_from_Complex_Spacetime_Geometry_and_Local_Metric_Deformations) when I was working about I have found that second thermodynamic principle can be write (in particular conditions) as dS/dt=dE/E in particular condition. Classic physics saw this equation and thought that "the variation fo entropy (dS) is the tendency of variate energy (dE) (in the time dt) on the total energy of a body (E)" and that is the more immediately view of this equation, but I have also see that you can see the inverse equation, that is dt=EdS/dE; this equation can be read differently as "the variation of time (dt) is the total energy (E) relate with his tendency to be dispersed around (dS) in relation to his dispersion (dE)" and this is exactly your thesis. So I have thought the same a few of time ago and I have concluded that is a valid picture of reality. It is not in anycase in contradiction with the other view of reality because time is not well defined without energy: what is time if it's not something that makes change of the things/energy in the universe? So time imply evolutions of things, but things are energy, so time is related with the evolution of energy, in the end. Say "the intrinsic evolutionary factor of things (time) makes evolution of the things" or "the intrinsic evolution of things generate what we call as time" I think are only different way to see the same things, that we haven't real elements to determine which one is the cause or the effect (so both are valid for me).

Proprioception and pattern matching can be considered the origin of causality in a participatory universe. Instead of a simple linear arrow of time, Loop Quantum Gravity can divide time up into events, and the arrow time can be thought of as simply the default. Neither a backwards, random, nor fatalistic universe makes more then the most superficial sense, and the three dimensions we perceive are also by default. Two dimensions is not enough to support consciousness, while 4 dimensions gets too complicate fast.

Note, this also provides a simple explanation for the Three Body Problem and all of quantum mechanics, as being equally random and fated. Metals contain the same amount of information no matter how hot or mixed up, maintaining a clear division between kinetic and radiant energy. Which means Relativity must be reformulated as Information Theory.
