The Hubble sphere has a radius of ~14 billion LY. The Milky Way has a diameter has a diameter of ~100k LY. So less than a part in 10,000. That’s “significant”? You seem to be allergic to doing any actual math as part of this.

This one is a dipole. Similar to a disk magnet https://cod.pressbooks.pub/physics1100/chapter/magnetism/

In the case of the toroid, the field is circular, so there is a symmetry that’s not there for the bar magnet. There’s also no transition from outside to inside the material, where the field is more concentrated. Labeling anything N or S would be arbitrary.

Yes, but we humans don’t notice these dimensions, because they are only noticeable on a very small scale - as you say, Planck scale or smaller. So you can’t have it be true that they’re important for life but also we don’t notice them. They would have to have effects above the atomic scale, meaning there has to be experiments that would reveal them.

Also it’s possible that staff have been directed do and not do certain things.

Crackpots often make no sense, but have supreme confidence that they’re right. Exposure in the US to >1ppb of RFK Jr is very hazardous to our health

I hope to resume them in the future.”

That’s what I’m asking you: does your model make more than the vague predictions that you’ve listed? Does it actually quantify anything?

What specific predictions can you make that would serve as a test?

It’s the original claim you made in the discussion. Do you really think you can deny you made it? As an atheist with the stated opinion that “any argument from an atheist that uses god, is a logical fallacy.” it would seem that any comment you make here is off-topic, since the topic is about god, and you’re talking about people. If you can’t or won’t discuss the topic, stay out of the conversation.

“Influenced by” is moving the goalposts. The claim was “no god has ever directly written a word” Name a religion that claims their holy book was directly written by their deity. This is not an issue of whether an outsider believes it. (not that this requires atheism. I doubt many Christians believe the flying spaghetti monster is real)

Hmm. This might be the Nth time I've seen this. Last time I went brrr because of the cold.

Bollocks. Gods and religions/mythologies are not identical, and some do not fit into the category. Specifics are absolutely needed.

The thing about extra dimensions in string theory be “curled up” is that they are only important at very small scales. Life is macroscopic by comparison. IOW, if you say it affects life there has to be a way to test it on the scale that “life” has meaning

Flexible filaments are available, and you can make a mold if you program it properly. It would use a lot of material, and it might need to be a system where any scaffolding can be dissolved away, since you might not have easy access to some regions.

And I am asking you to quantify this “scaling” (assuming c scales by a factor of 2) which you still have not done.

Then reach out to him. He’s not affiliated with this site (so far as I know; users don’t have to reveal their names)

Pretty clear that it’s just a bit of word salad, with no legitimate meaning behind it.

Functionally it has been, since many of the abducted are not getting due process and there are instances where courts are being ignored

So are you not answering the question to just be difficult, because you can’t, or because you realize it will reveal that your conjecture is false?

I don’t know. They show as all consistent (6 hours) in mine
