Max,

God requests your co-operation.

“The point is that if we dismiss seemingly weird theories out of hand, we risk dismissing the correct theory”

(at p.3 https://arxiv.org/pdf/0709.4024, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Universe&oldid=1225984921#cite_note-27)

I’m qualified to challenge you (you can call me Tim).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rre0sFHlfBc&t=Iggy+Azalea+–+Change+Your+Life+ft.+T.I.+Official+Music+Video

As many times as I have run across “you” over the years, I have never followed through on any thorough investigation. Here is my current motivation:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AUniverse&diff=1226010486&oldid=1226009229

Taking a brief skim (ugh) though your longer https://arxiv.org/pdf/0704.0646, I can tell you that the time you’ve invested into that line of thinking won’t be a complete waste - but you *will* have to turn around.

On page 5 you say, “For a more physics-related example, consider the mathematical structure of 3D Euclidean space” and I’m gonna stop you right there. My expertise is in thermodynamics. Let me also point you to your Fig 1 on p.2. You’ve got no place for non-equilibrium thermodynamics; you’ve got no place for phase change. And anyway, the reason I stopped you is because, just like Einstein overthrew Newton, we need to overthrow classical 3D systems (which plague all of science to date). The presumption of a 3D system *can* tell us something meaningful about certain limitations of ideality, but the presumption of a 3D system in itself is too stupid for genuine consideration. Fundamentally, there can be no causal relation between the parts of any supposed 3D system!

If we take that to 4D spacetime, we are in a no man’s land as far as systemics go.

If we grant you your map from figure one: if thermodynamics falls, it takes astrophysics, earth science, evolution, biology, medicine, psychology, and sociology. I don’t necessarily grant you your map, but I have an argument centered on the invention of the refrigerator that proves determinism is absurd, that the would-be universe Must fall to freedom:

Subject: Tim from Golden: two week employment self-termination notice

Julius,

two men,

What brings us to this is not what you have been led to believe. Nevertheless, the situation at work with me at this point is not good, you know, and I don’t see any good option to try to work through it. Thus, this is my official two-week notice for the end of my employ with two men and a truck. Y’all don’t owe me anything; and if you find it more appropriate that I should *not* come to the shop for another shift in that time, I completely understand. If that’s your decision, though, do please let me know. Otherwise, I’ll keep checking job-line and coming in and serving (as unto the Lord as always*) if called.

For the record, I mean what I say and say what I mean. This is just a job: disposable something like the rag I carry in my back right pocket. I hate losing that rag on the days I do, though I could afford a brand new one every day if I wanted. It’s like when I was a kid in school, I almost always ran my pen dry, almost never losing them. Or it’s like when I was a cigarette smoker (nearing nine years ago now), I almost never lost a lighter, till I had run it dry. I give my best-ish to my work (only) because I do it in the eyes of God. This *was* my favorite job I ever took, and it *was* about as perfect for me as I could hope to find, so I fought for it, but y’all owe me nothing! Thanks for the two years!! That’s twice as long as I feel comfortable asking anyone to put up with me (and God). This may sound a little weird, it still technically being winter and all: but I think that I’ve already made enough money this year to get me through the winter! I consider March first to be the first day of spring, and I mean that in my two years at two men I have made enough to get me through winter 24-25 already; so please, I’m in a great position to quit here today, and you owe me nothing- no worries! Thanks (again) for the two years!!

To be sure, I live my life on two hands. My right, dominant hand, is my life as caught up with God: every little thing matters, and this world is hella horrible. Evil, even. But I’ve been around the sun enough times that all the horrible, evil**, stuff, comes as no surprise, and I can take it in stride; or at least almost in stride. I’ve been around the sun enough times that I know the world didn’t change for Jesus, and it ain’t gonna change for me. I live my life down here on my left, non-dominant hand, where nothing matters. That is, here, regarding my stint of employ at two men, whatever injustice I could ever charge to anyone in the eyes of God, never matters. I mean what I say and say what I mean- both hands: terribly important with respect to God, not at all important with respect to this world. I know the value of the life I have in Jesus, and would never sacrifice a lick of it over a job. Like the shirts say, I am not of this world (notw).

I take responsibility for my part in this (world as well as my employment) situation, but as to the exact details, I object and preserve my issues for (a not forthcoming) appeal.

God bless us all;

sincerely,

Tim (Rappl)

*I’m “calling out” for the first time ever today: there was free coffee at yesterday’s load, and I had been keeping my caffeine intake relatively low recently, (since my time off in December,) but in an attempt to keep myself smiling and pleasant throughout the day, I over-did it. Given the current situation, I am not going to try to fight through it today.

**Evil means “outside the will of God” (ignorance is a mitigating factor, but not an excuse)

P.S. If anyone were interested in exploring in my post-employ freedom their life with my God, I could conceivably avail myself. People’s (yes, eternal***) souls have always been more important to me than my employment status.
