Speculations
Pseudoscientific or speculatory threads belong here.
The Speculations forum is provided for those who like to hypothesize new ideas in science. To enrich our discussions above the level of Wild Ass Guesswork (WAG) and give as much meaning as possible to such speculations, we do have some special rules to follow:
- Speculations must be backed up by evidence or some sort of proof. If your speculation is untestable, or you don't give us evidence (or a prediction that is testable), your thread will be moved to the Trash Can. If you expect any scientific input, you need to provide a case that science can measure.
- Be civil. As wrong as someone might be, there is no reason to insult them, and there's no reason to get angry if someone points out the flaws in your theory, either.
- Keep it in the Speculations forum. Don't try to use your pet theory to answer questions in the mainstream science forums, and don't hijack other threads to advertise your new theory.
The movement of a thread into (or out of) Speculations is ultimately at the discretion of moderators, and will be determined on a case by case basis.

This thread is a spin-off from the thread "simple explanations have legs" This was my quote: As has been suggested by myself and others, I believe that common logic is a big failing of today's primary scientific theories/ models which is one of the causes why many do not make sense and one of the reasons why I think most will be replaced by more logical models. It was suggested that this might be an interesting topic to discuss. I hope you think so Besides all the formal logical principles involved with argument, there are also a number of other logical principles that might be adopted for a new book on formal logic. Below are a few principles that I have…

ajb: a "property of the configuration" is reasonable, but that just defers the question to configuration of what? I think a useful phenomena to examine here is Compton Scattering. This is from the hyperphysics website, which I think is very good: The photon gives the target electron a "kick", and is reduced in energy. The electron acquires kinetic energy and moves. If you then repeat this with the scattered photon, you tend towards a situation where you have no photon left. All you have instead is electrons that weren't moving and now are. The photon has essentially been converted into kinetic energy. Hence I think "photons are pure energy" is more reasonabl…

Hello I am UserX, I am not a scientist and do not claim to know everything. But I do love science and in particular physics. My theories are based on based on science we can see and observe and it attempts to piece together things that elude us. My thought is that some time scientist are to close to the problem and that it takes a fresh mind to point out a something that could be helpful. This is a work in progress and I would like people who see the possibilities with this theory to test and critique anything I say here so that i can continue to develop these theories. The fabric of space time has always been a mystery to me. How it worked, what it actually was…

Something funny is afoot in the biological sciences. Labs peering into DNA are seeing things that nobody expected. And because the received view of evolution failed to predict these findings, and because it has little room to incorporate them, a crisis is brewing for the theory. Something more than selecting random variants is going on in evolution. The data coming out of DNA sequencing and analysis suggest that the something more has to do with a preferred direction in evolution. Phylogenetic descent seems now to be a developmental unfolding. Several discoveries point to this conclusion: 1. Junk DNA. This is not a particularly new discov…

For many years I have been posting my Bubble Theory or Black Hole Theory On the internet. I started my theory on bubbles in 2004. I also posted that I can't do maths. This starts debates on my theory being a waste of time. But I feel that I have predicted so many things now that I should be taken at least a bit seriously. Afterall, my Bubble Theory is a Theory Of Everything.. with no maths. I know that I am in for some flak, I am used to flak. This is the real Theory Of Everything... First.. the Aether exists. I have altered its physical attributes so that it doesn't show up in failed experiments. Second.. Gravity is a push from outside the Earth, a bump …

If you look at the Human brain you will notice that the Cerebrum is convulated. Apes have convulated brains also, but the brains of the nearest living relatives to the supposed common ancestor of Monkeys/Primates are relatively smooth. If you look at the brain of a Bushbaby or Tarsier you will notice that the cerebrum is smooth and does not nearly resemble that of a humans. Also the brain of a Monkey or Lemur barely resembles a Human brain. If you look at the brain of a Horse, Dog, or a pig you will notice that the brain looks very similar to a Human brain. If you look ah the cross sections of a Human and Dog brain you will notice that they are almost identical. The convu…

What causes black holes, as opposed to just big conglomerations of mass? Maybe something like a specific condition such as when a star explodes and great masses of atomic schrapnel are flung apart, coalescing into a conglomeration of atomic particles, without reforming back into the constituent atoms? I guess the particles would be too ready to reassimilate, though maybe not necessarily. Time to read this book and get caught up. Any ideas? Maybe if it had a binary of a specific makeup which it then collided with.

In this post, I present 'The Finiteness Theory', a theory of everything formulated by me. Matter has a fundamental particle that has a fixed mass, fixed volume and fixed energy. The energy is in the kinetic form and the particle moves at the speed 'c'. As a reaction to the energy, force is created. Electromagnetic radiations are streams of such particles. The natural energy and the energy equivalent of the force, of any system made up of such particles, are equal to mc2/2. When the particles integrate, energy and force are used up or trapped inside at every stage, and so, the ultimate system formed has no external energy or force. The fundamental particles first i…

It is proposed that forces are created as a reaction to the energy possessed. Kinetic energy creates gravitational force, potential energy creates electrostatic force, and the motion of particles having potential energy creates magnetic force. These three are the only real forces of nature, ie, the only forces that have fields. The strong nuclear force is the gravitational force at the level of electrons/positrons. The weak nuclear force is a pseudo force – the energy possessed acts against integration of matter, and so is a pseudo force. The motion of the fundamental particle creates an attractive force equivalent to mc2/2. When these particles integrate, this force …

Perhaps gravitational force is a fluctuating force. Drawing energy in for fuel, and then pushing it out as waste. That is to say that: electrical vacuum energy is siphoned in, then converted to pure outward momentum via proton vibration. Kind of like a two cycle engine.

time is an illusion, it tricks you into thinking that there is a future and past. some one once aked me " about an hour ago i went outside for a ciggarette. If we are not moving through time, 'where' is that man who was/is outside having a ciggarette? Is he and i the same and the the time i experience separating him and I just a measurment of movement? Where has he gone? Where is he now?" i think your forgetting that you MOVED since then it doesnt leave an old you in time...u changed since then time is a measurement of what changed the happening is the changes you are making time is... measuring the change of a constant... like orbiting the …

My theory predicts that Gravity is a pressure from the Universe, not an attractive force. And for a few years now I have been deciding if that pressure has changed over time. Since I was a child I have often wondered how T-Rex managed to get up off the floor if it fell over. It has those reduced arms, and a heavy back end. It looks like it would be hard work to get up. And since my gravity theory is channeled through bubbles like bubble-wrap which protects us from a huge pressure from the Universe I had been thinking that pressure on the dinosaurs may have been less. This would account for their huge size, and predict their downfall. But apart from their size I had li…

questionposter: energy is a physical thing, something very real, but it isn't something tangible. I suppose a photon is pretty much "pure energy", but you can't hold a light beam in the palm of your hand. And yet we can make matter out of photons. Check out pair production and the inverse process, annihilation: (From http://outreach.atnf.csiro.au/education/senior/cosmicengine/bigbang.html) You're made out of matter, so you're made out of energy. And then it is tangible. The important thing is this: you aren't made out of anything else. And you can't create or destroy energy, it's truly fundamental, more fundamental than electrons or quarks. And like I said, it …

Preface: I'm not a scientist or even a science student. Since I was a child in Aurora, Illinois, the nearby Fermilab intrigued me. Various shorter readings eventually lead me to The God Particle by Leon Lederman. That work of popular scientific prose, in turn, prompted me to do more reading, mostly of Internet-available synopses regarding established quantum physics theories. I hope that readers of my amateur treatise entitled The Conundrum Theory will treat it as a simple narrative of my quest for a merger of science and spirituality. I humbly honor the true scientists upon whose work I ponder. Please read the whole thing. I welcome all comments and critiques, and …

Hello I’m sorry. I can’t English well. My native language is not English.... We are now living in the era of new revolution. Are we again treading on the process of huge revolution that occurred in the late 19th century and the early 20th century? The current observation of dark matter requires explanation on two important situations as the following. Situation 1: Denial of the gravitational (attractive) phenomenon Dark matter is five times more than the general matter, but it does not show macro-structure like the structure of galaxy or galaxy cluster, or micro-structure like fixed star or planet. The result of the current observation is that dark matte…

Hi: Let's say I successfully-develop a way to completely and permanently eliminate all my adipose tissues [including the visceral fat cells]. In addition, let's say I take part in the optimum/ideal amounts, durations, intensities, and repetitions of strength-training, flexibility-training -- [such as stretching], and body-building exercises with the optimum/ideal amount of rest in between workouts. However, I do absolutely *no* cardiovascular or aerobic exercises. Let's also say that my diet consists solely of Italian and Indian sweets/desserts. In addition, instead of eating 3 large meals a day, I eat very many amounts of very small variable-sized meals a day…

One of the most fundemental laws of physics is that all things are attracted to one another as described by the equation G=D*M. However on of the less fundemental ramafacations is that the universe if it were to expand as it is now that it would slow and eventually reverse until it reached singularity. The problom is that it is excelerating not slowing. So how might one resolve this? What if there was no gravitey, but only the lack of anti-gravity? An antigravity that takes a percentage of empty space. That if everything else were moving away but you wouldn't it look like you were coming closer together? Wouldn't this solve the dark matter mystery? Who knows. What are you…

I don't want to interupt any hot debates or anything, just wanted to give my latest definition of time within my own expanding model of things that are. ! Moderator Note This has been split, because to do this in someone else's existing thread is hijacking, i.e. an interruption of a discussion. Time: Dynamic position shifts within a three dimensional field of expansion. Expansion rate divided by the speed of light equals energy potintial. Energy potential exists as particles within the field and fields of slower expansions. The interactions and flow of these field particles, create the dynamic values of: entropy, gravity, and time. Entropy …

For those considering my lateset theories and hypothesis I'd like to extend my latest model vision. First let me breif you on the model thus far: Time is the shifting position of the zero intersection within the x,y, and z plane within a nonsymetrical expanding field. This is a major componant of the theory. Another major componant states that: the universe is hologram made from rays of momentum/gravity extending out in two directions from the atom. The atom is a two dimensional disk that is tumbling in space/time via the electron, within it's rings of probability, seeking the positive energy within the ray. The ray is a time dialation projecting out of the …

http://www.defending-islam.com/page388.html It starts out pretty clear-cut, but then, (about 3/4 of the way down) starts taking these odd positions like time and space being discontinous? It sounds like maybe someone who has a faulty understanding of relativity or maybe hypothesizing some fantastic way for Allah to travel through the ages, but who knows. I was looking around, investigating something, and stumbled across it. Since Islam prides itself on being the accurate end-all, you would think that after 1,400 years in the Age of Information, they would get it right.

Based on the conjecture that matter has a fundamental particle having a fixed mass, fixed radius and a fixed energy, I have arrived at (1) an alternate model for electromagnetic radiations, (2) the internal structures of electron, proton and neutron, (3) a new kinetic theory of matter,and (4) a new model of the universe. I do not know whether this is the apt forum for presenting these. However, in this post, the proposed model for electromagnetic radiations is presented. Electromagnetic radiations - an alternate model The alternate model proposes that electromagnetic radiations are streams of extremely light particles moving at the speed 'c'. The m…

The mysterious Veegtrón! Read Wikipedia: do not know what causes the photon. I have discovered, that makes it, the same particle moving waves of mobile phones, television, radio and others. How it works the Veegtrón: when it vibrates to create waves, when it shines is to create the light when heated by the Sun is to create heat, when cooled in the darkness is to create the cold when it changes color it is to change the color of the light and is a magnet for colors because he magnetized the color of an object when you move sharply. The Veegtrón also does the following moves the magnetism of the Sun to keep the planets in orbit, move the magnetism of the magnet …

So I got to thinking and as odd as it may be I started thinking about Cross breeding between different forms of mammals, more specifically the Mammals who are a lot like each other, such as Wolves and Wild cats, and other such animals. The thought then developed into a larger sense, If nature demands to adapt or die, and the Endangered species in the world were forced to adapt, wouldn't you think that nature would give them a way to reproduce? Granted this is just theory and speculation, and half thought out. But I was wanting your opinions on this, also I know that you can cross-breed those of the same species, that's not what I'm talking about =).

UNIFICATION OF THE 4 FORCES FUNDAMENTAL NATURE To begin with I should explain what is the Veegtrón. The Veegtrón is a particle that moves the waves of mobile phones, television, radio and other. The Veegtrón is everywhere, so composed the universe because it is a particle that moves the waves of a Galaxy to another. The Veegtrón is located between the magnet and iron, between the Sun and planets, and from one atom to another atom. Move that leaves the magnet iron, planets, Sun and atoms. The reason that drives what is inside of the matter it is because the Veegtrón magnetized energy which is inside the magnet, Sun, atom and planets up to a limit of stret…
