The question of an after life is entirely irrelevant. Death, and the "thereafter", cannot really be known outside of those that have experienced it. Unfortunately, they're not well enough to share their insight. Some find solace in the concept of souls and an afterlife through...

In effect it's like expanding the box to make things fit in harmony, I suppose. I can see how the inclusion of GR in higher dimensions provides a remedy for the discrepancies between Relativity and Quantum Theory.

I see, so the necessity for more dimensions is a direct result of the equations.

I'm rather new to physics in general, so bear with me in my potential ignorance. Considering we have no idea of the absolute properties of higher dimensions, how is it that they're identified in equations? This especially perplexes me when thinking about the Kaluza-Klein theory, or even...
