    Is the LuniSolar theory a legitimate scientific theory?

    Any thoughts on this, fellas? I have not read the book nor viewed the documentary (narrated by James Earl Jones) but I have read a few articles, and, well, precision is a complex sport, so I am intrigued with the notion...I am no astronomer though, only have a layman's fascination...

    Does nightime sky face outer or inner galaxy?

    I recently came across an argument that stated that Earth's nighttime view pretty much always faces the outer rim of our galaxy, while the day time view is facing right towards the center, which of course we don't see due to sunlight. There was refrenced a few indian tribes in s.america who trek...

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    hehe, that sounds good, but which is which? 0, 1, 2?? also, is the spelling on nunnull really non-null? where do you wish me to send the check?;-) MR

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    Please let's eloborate on this! That seems to pinpoint this environment. Now, what are the 'distinctions' that make those what you just mentioned? how does 0 imply a base element? how does 1 imply a 'typical' number? How is infinity it's own successor? what are the percievable distinctions that...

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    I am getting the funny feeling that I may be overcomplicating this in an attempt to match all of your expertise, so please bear with me a bit... Let's say all number sets can be divided into two distinctions. Finite sets, and infinite sets. An infinite set, according to how I am defining...

    Hehe, me and my big mouth! okay, it is probably going to take me a bit for me to be clear about where I follow what the three of your are saying, and where I get lost in confusion. However, I do like the switch around, usually, I am used to understanding people, but them not understanding...

    :rofl: well, if I have to settle for a possible 'corner interpretation' for mathematical meaning I will happily accept that! thank you for your participation in this discussion. I read your earlier posts, and yes, you see the same distinction I see, however, it's application lay when we...

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    One, that read beautifully to me. Thank you for that thoughtful explanation. If 0 is a neutral element, that clearly delineates it from 1, no? the fact that you can distinguish one binary operation from another binary operation is the same distinction I am referencing regarding the...

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    yes, I agree, I would assume, and that is also how I come to the conclusion that what I am referencing must have some mathematical language to be parsed into. Since I can define the 'rules' in common speak, or in the language of the dialectic, and even make a 'game' out of the rules, then I...

    arildno, sorry I missed your post earlier, Yes, I can see that.. I also see that and I certainly hope it doesn’t read that I am suggesting otherwise, however, we are still left with numbers none the less. And again, I am only identifying the relationships of these numbers to each other...

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    Matt Again, thank you for your time and keeping this discussion going with me. I hope you realize what an assistance your being. I think I may have a false idea about what mathematics ‘is’, this may be true. I assume that it is a rational language that assigns mutually agreeable symbols to...

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    Hmm, I like those questions. I am going to get a bit dangerous here and open up some territory I am still understanding myself, but In common language I would respond that when we quantify something, it means we identify either number or measurement into mutual language or symbol referencing a...

    Sokal matt, By the way, I just freshened up on Alan Sokal's 'hoax', and I must say, it is similar, but not in the way you suspect. What he did was an example of what I refrence as the 'political approach' and showed how perception can percieve a false truth and confuse it's function as a...

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    yes, that too is my point. i would say that 0 necessitates the absence of 1 by default, no? That is all I am suggesting. Again, this is not a metaphysical discussion, although I can see how it may be perceived as such the function of numbers is true in all environments, I would imagine...

    0, 1, infinite model, question

    yes, agreed. we are refrencing the same thing, just explaining it differently yes, I know, however, I quantified it as having non value. 0 is value for no value.it is only a unit from the POV of numbers, it is a 'unit' which contains no value, as opposed to 1, which is a unit that expressed...
