    A woman goes to a company to fill out a job application.  As the secretary looks it over, she says, oh we had someone apply yesterday with the same last name, same parents, and same date of birth.  

    That's my sister, said the woman.

    So you are twins, said the secretary.

    No, we are not, said the woman.

     

    Explain.

    frozen embryos?

  3. Similar effect allows bacteria to withstand much higher osmotic pressures than eukaryotic cells. In this case, it is the line-square rather than the square-cube law. When you decrease the size by a factor, the ability of a membrane to withstand tear decreases by that factor while the tearing force decreases by the factor squared. Thus, a bacterium that is 100 times smaller than a regular cell can withstand 100 times higher osmotic pressure.

    Can we bottle (or just create) spacetime curvature and thereby  create (or annihilate) mass?

    That might  be a causal relationship. 

    Spacetime curvature is associated with radiation. The latter does not have mass.

    ok from my understanding, it is the belief that everything is made of vibrating energy including thoughts and people and like energy attracts like energy so positive thoughts attract positive experiences and negative thoughts attract negative experiences. 

    None of this *** has anything to do with quantum theory or the science of physics.

    Indeed. Sorry.

    Well, then the question about the field changes to: what are the fields and how they were created?

    What they are is described by specific QFT theories. Generally, field is an entity that pervades space and time and is defined by its properties such as spin.

    "How they were created" goes back to the dawn of the universe.

    the electromagnetic field was successfully "discarded"

    It was not. It is rather the other way around. Photons are quantum excitations of EM field. The QED and other QFT theories describe interactions of fields. (QFT = Quantum Field Theory.)

    But the questions I brought up, are specific to see if making an object to behave differently under a condition. (e.g. trying to apply a concept or approach that is different from ordinary or convenient approach).

    How your questions are different from ordinary or conventional approach to behavior of objects under gravity?

    I have some questions that I'm curious about before moving on:

    Q: If making objects with less dense mass property alongside with perhaps a change in direction, would these be able to lift or float up (e.g. artificial anti-gravity)?

    Q: If making objects with greater dense mass property alongside with a change or more concentrated direction, would these able to ground astronauts on a floor in spacecraft or space station (e.g. artificial gravity)?

    The law of gravity is known. Try to answer your questions by applying it.

    more than one infinite universe could co-exist in a natural way

    As I have mentioned, there are many ways. One of them is that the multiverse's space is not necessarily three dimensional.

    How can a finite universe not have a center or edges?

    If its geometry is not Euclidean, for example.

    Why should this be true? What makes the visible universe spherical is that the limits on the speed of light are the same in every direction, AFAIK there is no spherical symmetry to the mass in the visible universe, what would make it symmetrical outside of it? 

    On the scale of several hundred megaparsec and more the visible universe is homogeneous and isotropic. It means that on that scale it is the same in all directions.
