Physical as defined in any standard or scientific dictionary. So space-time is made of what? So science DOES NOT SAY anything concrete about the true nature of spacetime. Screw speculations. Science does not say space-time is a physical thing, yet you along with others believe that...

So what is space-time made of? Do you want to say that space-time is a "of or relating to physics"? Is that an entity that exists? "A matter of concern" is being influenced by a mass? So what is it? Space-time is a "of or relating to physics" Is that a thing that is being...

I define "physical" and "thing" the same as any definition found in any standard dictionary. Notice how no one has given a scientific definition of space-time that states space-time is a physical thing according to how science defines "physical" and "thing". STOP AVOIDING THE QUESTION AND...

Alright. So what is the definition of physical according to you?

Lets get back on track here. Here is a statement that I made that you quoted in post 59 “There is no scientific reference or definition that states that space-time is a thing that exists as an entity. Please stop this science fiction fantasy. The field of science does not define space-time...

What are the physical qualities of this physical entity? It is physcical in what way? Is there any science that describes space-time as a physical entity?

Just give the scientific explanation, simple as that. If something exists you do not need a time machine or God to perceive it. Look, does this space-time thing have a size, weight, color, thickness. Can it be sensed, measured or perceived, if so in what way. You believe that this fabric...

Here is a definition of illusion from a dictionary: 1. something that deceives by producing a false or misleading impression of reality. 2. the state or condition of being deceived; misapprehension. 3. an instance of being deceived. 4. Psychology. a perception, as of visual stimuli...

I forgot to add this. You say space-time is relative to the frame of reference of the observer. What does it mean to observe? To look? To see? Are you saying that this space-time thing can be observed? I know solid matter can reflect light and thus be observed by the eye. Are you...

You have put this space-time thing in the same category as solid matter. You say that as far physics and science are concerned, there is no such thing as physical matter. Sounds like you are confused. Please refer to science reference books and look up matter. There are many things...

Look, this space-time thing is not a real physical entity. If it was then think about where does it exists? What exists around it? What is it made of? If you say it is made of particles then what do you call that area between these space-time particles? And particles of what? If you say...

Play UK stated; Coming at this problem from the angle of philosophy/psychology and an unhealthy relationship with the Journal of Consciousness Studies, I'm interested to know how you Physicists interpret the process of collapse, or rather the concept of entanglement. I've read so much new age...

If you don't mind, could you please clarify something for me and the others on this form. When you say spacetime is smooth, are you referring to a mathematical model or a physical structure?

Pythagorean asked; Is Spacetime Smooth? Smooth: infinitely differentiable. You said; How do you know it is smooth? If this spacetime thing is smooth that means it is a physical object with a surface. Most smooth objects reflect light. And all objects have a location in space. So...

Thank you very much for your reply. you really put some effort into it. I asked you many questions and quite frequently people do not respond to all of them. In order to keep this short I will try to ask only a few questions. First I would like to say that I have read many books on...
