[QUOTE="Janx, post: 6276127, member: 8835"] Parallel universes is accepted? [MENTION=177]Umbran[/MENTION] can probably clarify that. Even Theories are still held with a taint of dubiousness, that's why they are classified as Theory. The only thing truly accepted as irrefutable are Laws. As I found in some other thread, it's faulty logic to assume that just because you can't see it, that physics hasn't been proven to be true by virtue of the calculated outcomes and the actual final results. We can't see an actual electron. But all the physics math calculated a ton of things that proved the model worked when they invented things like transistors that relied on its effects. So, as I said about dumb people before, I don't understand the math. Umbran is smarter than me. I accept that the math and theory must be right, not because Umbran is smarter than me, but because ultimately, he can demonstate that the math models how things work, and that when he does Y, it will cause X to happen. Every time. He can predict the outcome because of the math. Whether I understand it or not. Ideally, folks like Bill Nye come along to dumb it down for the rest of us. And honestly, Umbran does that service on this forum. But the difference is, Umbran's Physics powers can be proven by virtue of the tests that be performed that result in real world measurable outcomes. [/QUOTE]
