Physics defines our perception of nature

Posted on November 25, 2012 by zeynel

Do you agree with this statement?

Physics defines our perception of nature

Or more generally,

Physics defines our perception

If it is true that physics defines our perception, it follows that

our perception is learned, not innate
there is no one true perception
there is no true nature

therefore,

nature appears to us the way we define it or, nature is an illusion

Who teaches us how to perceive nature?

We learn to perceive nature as material; materialism is the doctrine of physics.

Who teaches us this doctrine of materialism? First our parents then our teachers when we are sent to school.

School teachers indoctrinate students with Newtonian materialism.

School teaches us that Isaac Newton discovered the true laws of the true nature and the true nature is made of matter and obeys Newton’s laws. In short, school teaches us that

nature = matter

and matter is set into motion by an occult force discovered by Newton.

School teaches us the Newtonian doctrine of atomic materialism as the unquestionable true description of nature; we learn that nature is material and forceful and obeys Newton’s laws. Teachers do not tell us that this is just one of the infinite number of possible world views.

The occult doctrines of this British Doctor of Philosophy (a scholastic Learned Doctor) who died over 300 years ago still define our perception of nature not because it describes the true nature (which does not exist) but because Newton’s disciples who nowadays call themselves physicists perpetuate Newton’s doctrine of atomic materialism as the true nature.

Do you see anything wrong with this picture?

God particle in Newton’s temple

Posted on October 8, 2012 by zeynel

What evidence do you need to convince yourself that Newtonism is a cult?

What is Newtonism?

Newtonism is a religious cult whose revealed faith is atomic materialism. This old British cult presents itself to the world as “physics”.

There is no doubt that Newtonism doing business as physics assumes atomic materialism as its unquestionable faith. Once you agree that atomic materialism is the sacred hidden faith of physics that Newton claimed God revealed to him, then, it becomes obvious that Newtonism is a cult.

* * *

You’ve heard about Newton’s laws and you are told that nature is Newtonian and Newton the mortal closest to Gods discovered the laws of nature that lay hidden until Newton revealed them to humanity.

But have you ever heard about Newton’s Zeroth Law? No, you haven’t. Physics textbook will never mention this fundamental hidden assumption of physics.

Newton discovered no law of nature; Newton assumed the doctrine of atomic materialism as a revealed truth and tried to fit nature to his materialist and occult doctrines by defining his faith as laws of nature.

To believe that nature is matterful and that there are absolutely hard surfaces in nature is not different than believing in the occult. Physicists believe in the occult; and more importantly, physicists control the education system and they teach their occult faith as the only scientific truth. Do you want your child indoctrinated by these priests of the cult of Newton?

This is Newton’s Zeroth law:

God in the beginning formed matter in solid, massy, hard, impenetrable movable particles.

Newton claims, in the name of God that nature is discontinuous; there are absolutely hard surfaces and he calls these absolute indivisible discontinuities “matter” and endows matter with a quality he calls “mass”.

This doctrine of atomic materialism supposedly revealed to prophet Newton is the fundamental and unquestionable hidden faith of physics.

Atomic materialism is the revealed faith of physics that every physicist believes as his faith without question. No physicist can deny or even question his faith in the cult of Newton and remain a physicist. When a physicist repeats the official physics propaganda that as a physicist he always upholds the authority of mathematics and experiment, he is lying.

The last 300+ years physicists have been trying hard to fit nature into their absurd atomic materialist faith. But nature is not matterful. Nature is not occult.

* * *

Physics is based on atomic materialism; physicists made the occult the fundamental quantity of physics and they even defined a unit for the occult and named the unit of the occult with the sacred name of their Grand Master Newton.

By trying to explain nature with their occult faith physicists corrupted the old science of physics and filled it with absurdities and then claimed these absurdities generated by their physics belonged to nature. Physicists market bugs in their esoteric language as features of nature. What charlatans!

What other evidence do you need that physics is the cult of Newton!

Physics is the cult of Newton.

Physicists are ultra-fanatic, radical, and extremist anti-science priests of the cult of Newton who will defend the occult doctrines of their cult and the sacred authority of their Grand Master Newton at all cost.

Physicists built a 4 billion dollar machine to save Newton’s sacred authority.

Yes, you should be in awe of Newton. His disciples built a giant temple to their prophet Newton to save his sacred authority by using miracles they will coax out of a machine. LHC is the newest cathedral of the cult of Newton.

LHC exists because to this day physicists will not give up their unquestioning faith to Newton’s Zeroth’s law. If God revealed to their prophet Newton that he created matter in solid and “massy” particles, for physicists, nature must be matterful and massy regardless of what experiments and physicists’ own theories say.

* * *

What does their own Standard Model tell physicists? Standard Model tells physicists that particles that they observe are not massy as revealed to Newton and there are no particles.

The Standard Model is not just any theory; physicists claim that their standard model is the most beautiful theory ever and it explains all their particles and their interactions perfectly. This is true by definition because physicists built the Standard Model over 50 years by fitting observations to it, in other words Standard Model is “phenomenology” or a model that saves the phenomena.

Standard Model saves the observations and tells physicists that particles have no mass.

But Newton says that God revealed to him that particles are massy.

Can you guess what physicists will do? As cult members of the cult of Newton what would they do?

Unlike physicists, what would scientists do?

Scientists will reason scientifically, like this: here’s a theory that we built; it is so good that it explains all observations perfectly and it tells us that what we observe as particles have no mass; particles we observe are not massy as Newton claimed; forget Newton and his divine revelations; physics is a science, divine revelations and sacred authority of a prophet have no room in physics; our theory and experiments say particles are not massy therefore we are living in a world without matter regardless of what that self-annointed prophet Newton claims. Amen!

What do Newton’s disciples the physicists say: Wait a minute, forget the Standard Model and experiments; Newton’s authority is sacred and it cannot be challenged; Newton is always right therefore we must invent a field impersonating a particle impersonating mass so that Standard Model will give all massless particles mass.

And this is what physicists did and they built the LHC to save Newton’s authority.

Are you yet convinced that these people are fanatic priests of the cult of Newton and they built a huge machine to prove that nature is occult and matterful to save Newton’s authority?

Probably not. Then, let me tell you that this kind of charlatanism to overrule experiments and theory to save Newton’s authority is not the exception in physics, it is the rule.

* * *

The best example of how physicists uphold the authority of Newton over the authority of experiments is how they defined the Cavendish experiment of 1798 as the first observation of Newton’s occult force.

Newton’s disciples the physicists tried for over 200 years after their Master’s death to observe experimentally this occult quality Newton called “force”. Physicists could not find such a force in 200 years of trying.

What would you conclude? I would conclude that the force is occult, I would say, physicists tried 200 years to find the occult in nature and they failed and they could not find a trace of the occult in nature; so nature is not occult, Newton is lying.

What would physicists do? Physicists in the 19th century named the old Cavendish experiment posthumously as the first observation of the occult force!

Experiments say nature is not occult; physicists say nature must be occult because Newton says so, and they defined an old experiment as the first observation of the occult.

Never mind that Cavendish did not measure force and he did not intend to measure it, he just computed the mean density of the earth. But in order to save Newton’s sacred authority physicists redefined an experiment to fit their doctrines. Physicists could not observe the occult so they defined an old experiment as verifying the occult because the sacred authority of Newton must be saved.

You are still not convinced?

Physicists built another absurd edifice to save Newton’s sacred authority when they realized that the way they wrote Newton’s force definition resulted in division by zero at r=0. So what physicists do? Do they say, Newton’s force is absurd, we could not observe it in 300 years, and now the same occult and absurd definition of force results in division by zero, so enough is enough, let’s dump this force and forget about that self-annointed prophet Newton… Not a chance. Physicists are the priests of the cult of Newton and charlatans. Physicists are not scientists.

So what do physicists do? They invent elaborate mathematical procedures and mathematical gimmicks and mathematical polemics to divide by zero without appearing to divide by zero. And they dub the charlatanism of dividing by zero without dividing by zero “normalization”. When mathematics warns them again and tells them “don’t normalize me,” fanatic physicists don’t listen and increase the dose of their polemical sophistry and re-normalize and re-re-normalize until they got what they want and Newton’s sacred authority is saved.

Physicists Steven Weinberg and company are given a Nobel Prize for inventing subtle mathematical sophistry that overruled the authority of mathematics with Newton’s sacred authority.

* * *

These charlatans who corrupted the old science of physics with absurdities to save the sacred authority of their Grand Master Newton overruled experiments, overruled theory, and overruled mathematics with Newton’s authority… these people are continuing to corrupt what used to be the science of physics with their occult faith.

How can you let these charlatans and extreme priests of the cult of Newton to teach your child the occult doctrines of an 18th century British Grand Master of the Occult?

* * *

Newton was the agent of the British colonialism to impose British standards and colonize the continental Europe in the name of the Crown. Newtonism is now exposed as what it is: A British cult of the occult. Newtonism doing business as physics is a cult because it is based on the claims of a false prophet who claimed his corrupt materialist doctrines was revealed to him by God.

Newton the Grand Master of the British cult of Newtonism was invented to extend British political colonialism to human mind and it has run its course. Newtonism is now exposed.

Question the occult doctrines that Newton’s fanatic priests are teaching your child.

Join the campaign to stop teaching the Cavendish experiment lab as the observation of the Newtonian occult.

Axes of nature

Posted on September 27, 2012 by zeynel

The focus of physics is motion.

But motion is a limited case of change. To limit nature to motion by ignoring change and then claim to explain nature in its entirety by motion, and specifically, as motion on the axes of a coordinate frame, is arrogant ignorance of nature.

Physics accepts motion but denies change.

Why?

Physics is based on the doctrine of atomic materialism and atomic materialism explains nature with infinitely dense units that move but do not change.

Physics at its very core embraces the supernatural over natural.

Physics can only describe nature by casuistry and sophistry.

Nature is rational

Posted on December 8, 2011 by zeynel

How do we know that nature is rational?

We know nature by measuring.

Measuring is counting the unit.

What is a unit?

All measurements are done with a rule. A rule is an equality of ratios of similar quantities. For example, Kepler’s Rule is a rule that measures orbits.

In order to measure with a rule we keep one of the ratios constant. This term that we keep constant is the unit.

Since we can choose any ratio as our unit, measurement is independent of chosen unit. There are no absolute true units.

There are no exceptions to the rule that measurement is independent of chosen unit. There are no absolute and true units in nature.

I cannot imagine any physicist to agree that nature is rational and that there are no true units in nature; that would be denying the sacred branded units of physics.

If you eliminate the sacred branded units named after dead physicists there will be no physics left.

Nature is rational; physics is legal.

Physics is legal because it tries to legislate nature with absolute true units defined by physicists. Physicists call the units they define “constants of nature”.

Rational = measured with ratios = science

Legal = measured with equations made of branded and sacred units = physics

Jane Doe v. Board Of Education of the City of New York

Posted on April 24, 2011 by zeynel

Jane Doe is the mother of little Jane Doe who is being taught at a New York City public school the doctrines of a British religious cult. We identify this cult as “Newtonism.”

A quote from a physics textbook (page 101) shows how Newtonian doctrines of occult force and atomic materialism (mass) is taught as true science:

5.6.1 Newtonian Gravity
Gravity is the attractive force between two objects due to the mass of the objects. When you throw a ball in the air, its mass and the earth’s mass attract each other, which leads to a force between them.

Jane Doe is suing NYC Board of Education because textbooks used by the Board indoctrinates little Jane Doe with a British religious cult by teaching that

Gravity is an universal attractive force discovered by the great British physicist Sir Isaac Newton, the mortal closest to Gods, and that this force is proportional to the mass of the bodies.

Jane Doe claims that this is a lie; more than a lie; it is a systematic indoctrination of young minds of our nation with the doctrines of a British religious cult.

Teaching Newtonism is religious indoctrination. But our constitution forbids religious indoctrination in public schools. As a patriotic citizen and as a concerned mother Jane Doe is suing the New York City Board of Education to stop the teaching of the unverified doctrines of an 18th century British occultist to little Jane Doe as a scientific fact.

The occult force supposedly discovered by Newton and taught by the NYC Board of Education as a scientific truth was never observed in nature.

Let’s repeat what Jane Doe is claiming and display it in bold font so that the reader does not miss the point of this case:

The occult force supposedly discovered by Newton and taught by the NYC Board of Education as an absolute scientific truth was never observed in nature.

That this occult force was never observed in nature is proved — by physicists themselves — who claim that

Newtonian force of gravity was superseded by Einstein’s General Relativity theories.

Physicists themselves proved that Newtonian force does not exist in nature.

Repeat in bold:

Physicists themselves proved that Newtonian force does not exist in nature.

Repeat in bold and all caps:

PHYSICISTS THEMSELVES PROVED THAT NEWTONIAN FORCE DOES NOT EXIST IN NATURE.

Then why is the Board indoctrinating poor little Jane Doe with the doctrines of a British religious cult that teaches blind acceptance of a nonexistent occult force as the true law of nature?

What does this mean?

It means that physicists themselves concede that experiments such as the famous Cavendish experiment that physicists claim proved the existence of the Newtonian force were — faked — by physicists to save Newton’s sacred authority.

If the Newtonian force were ever measured experimentally with the Cavendish experiment it could not be superseded by Einstein or anybody else.

Physicists concede that they faked experiments that they claim proved Newton’s occult force; because now they claim that Newton’s force does not exist.

How would the court decide this case?

The court does not know anything about the Cavendish experiment or the subtleties of the Newtonian force or if it exists or not.

The court decides that the subject of force belongs to physics and that only a physicist can settle the question of the existence of the Newtonian force and therefore the court orders the parties to bring in physics professors as expert witness to defend their case.

***

Counsel for Jane Doe hired an impeccable expert witness who is a tenured professor of physics in a brand name university. The prof testifies that “Newton’s force does not exist in nature because it was superseded by Einstein’s General Relativity.”

And this prof is not lying.

Legal and conventional physics teaches that Newtonian force was replaced by Einstein’s General Relativity. This is textbook stuff.

The prof offers the court to display standard physics equations to prove that Newtonian force does not exist but the court refuses the offer as unnecessary and the prof’s testimony that Newtonian force does not exist enters the records.

***

The counsel for defense is not worried. He also hired a physics professor from an equally brand name ivy league university. The defense prof is a showman who wrote several popular physics bestsellers and knows how to manipulate the minds of laymen by using the ancient authority of physics.

The prof brings with him an apple and with the confidence of great trial attorneys he shows the apple to the jury and tells them that he will now conduct a physics experiment to prove that the Newtonian force exists and then he drops the apple and asks the jury what they saw.

The plaintiff counsel objects to this blatant manipulation of the jury; but to no avail.

The prof knew that “apple” is a visual pun for “Newton’s force” and that the jury cannot help itself but “see” in this experiment the Newtonian force emanating from the center of the earth pull Newton’s apple and make it fall according to Newton’s force of gravity laws.

The jury members have been indoctrinated since childhood with Newtonism and they believe that they “saw” with their own eyes the force attracting the apple even though there is no such force visible to the jury or to any mortal except to physics profs who are priests of Newtonism.

***

The jury’s “vision” of a non-existent force is the proof of how successful Newtonism has been as a religious cult shaping our perception of the world.

***

The prof hired by the defense is confident that he got the jury on his side and testifies that Newtonian force exists and he just proved it. The apple was attracted by the Newtonian force and the jury saw it. He rests his case.

***

So two profs of physics with equal academic authority come to court; one testifies that Newtonian force does not exist and the other testifies that Newtonian force does exist.

***

Dear reader, suppose you are the plaintiff counsel. How will you defend your client? Do you mind sharing your strategy with us?

***

If the same question about the existence of force is evaluated by an independent group of scientists working outside of physics; what would they find?

To me, both profs are wrong. Because both of them actually repeat Newtonian doctrines as legalized in physics. It is true that the Newton’s occult force does not exist – not because it was replaced by General Relativity – but because it was never observed by a proper experiment; and because Newtonian force and mass do not enter orbit computations. How much of these technical issues would the court want to hear?

Do you find the above court scenario realistic? How would you defend this case? Do you know any similar cases?

And finally, what is the most important inducement for you, as a lawyer, to take this case? This is not a pro bono case but you should only take this case for the intellectual satisfaction of solving a new and interesting legal challenge for the good of humanity.

It’ll never work

Posted on February 19, 2011 by zeynel

It’ll never work!

Mathematics is inadequate to describe the universe, since mathematics is an abstraction from natural phenomena. Also, mathematics may predict things which don’t exist, or are impossible in nature. – Ludovico delle Colombe [Criticizing Galileo (paraphrased).]

Ludovico delle Colombe got it right. Mathematics is as good as any other abstraction invented to define nature.

Beware of the professional

Posted on December 12, 2008 by zeynel

Professionals program human individual for the unhuman organism

We are educated by professionals who program us from the earliest times with the doctrine that we must obey professional authority. We are taught that all professionals are experts in their field and they have a monopoly in their field protected by a license and we must never question or doubt the professional opinion of a professional. According to this doctrine civilization exists thanks to professionals.

Human individual is rewarded only if he gives up his individuality

If we are interested in a subject we must never investigate that subject on our own by freely thinking on our own but we must yearn to enter that professional field by giving up our individuality and dedicate ourself in moving up the hierarchy and sacrifice our natural curiosity to serve the objectives of the hierarchy.

The education tells us that after studying the professional language of our chosen profession and after showing our proficiency of it we must obtain our license and practice that profession until we retire. During our practice we must vehemently protect our profession from infringement from outsiders so that our professional authority is not diluted and our monopoly remains firm.

The old European system enforces submission to the unhuman

This is the old European doctrine established to perpetuate the compartmentalized European society where every citizen is taught to know its place and never dare to question the absolute authority of the ruling unhuman organisms.

Professionals exploit confusion and confuse to exploit

Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities – the political, the religious, the educational authorities – who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing — forming in our minds – their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable open-mindedness, chaotic, confused vulnerability to inform yourself.

The main objective of education — designed and operated by professionals — is to kill individual curiosity that may lead to the questioning of authority and teach how to find comfort in professional mythology.

Respecting professional authority serves the professional

Respecting professional authority serves the professional classes and helps them perpetuate their monopoly. We on the other hand never look forward to dealing with professionals and we know that whenever we trust a professional we will always be the loser.

Lawyers, medical doctors, church professionals, politicians and physicists are professionals who see their customers as preys to be exploited for their own professional gains. Everyone knows that for a medical doctor a patient is a walking dollar sign.

Academic physics is irrelevant

Physics is apparently different than other professional fields because academic physics is totally irrelevant. No one ever goes to a physicist with a practical problem to be solved. All problems solved by academic physicists are academic.

Of course, if you want to build mass destruction weapons you will have to require the services of physicists but probably you don’t because building mass destruction weapons is not nice and contributes negatively to human well-being.

So academic physics is irrelevant and academic physicists spend their time writing commentary on each other’s commentary on old scholastic topics such as time, space, gravity and cosmos.

Applied physics is evil

The practical side of the physics profession — applied physics — is harmful to the well-being of human individual but physics professionals have been contributing happily to the destruction of humanity and the deterioration of human standard of life more than any other type of professionals. The more a physicist will serve the unhuman organism and deliver weapons to be used against human individual the more he will be marketed as a genius by the marketing arm of the unhuman.

Maybe it is possible to defend destructive and evil physics because it may have some useful side effects at the end. I don’t know. There must be a way to do research without paying such a deadly price for humanity. I cannot justify as easily as physicists can that collaborating with the enemies of humanity hoping that some good may come out of it is good.

Questioning leads to understanding

In order to evaluate physicists’ theories we must question them. I refuse to accept academic physicists’ authority. They are nothing more than licensed practitioners of a legal code called physics. They claim that their authority comes from their knowledge of a language. That’s not the kind of authority that impresses me.

I am not interested in what is already known. I am interested in learning what I don’t know. Learning means questioning, not accepting physics dogma by faith.

Fundamental is simple

I believe that anyone can speculate on fundamental questions as well as physicists because nature is simple.

Archimedes did not know physics. Galileo did not know physics. Newton did not know physics. Yet they contributed nicely to human understanding of nature by using simple methods.

Model meets nature at a single point

If physics claims to model nature then all physics statements must be intelligible to non-physicists. An intelligible statement has a single meaning.

If experiment is asking questions to nature obviously nature will not reply to a question which will have many answers. This is the fundamental rule of experimenting: Ask a well defined single question. Physicists don’t know this fact.

Therefore, what is not intelligible to a non-physicist will not be intelligible to nature either.

What is intelligible to physicists only will be intelligible to physicists only and to no one else, including nature.

And indeed the proprietary professional language physicists use to communicate among themselves is intelligible to no one but to themselves. Nature ignores it.

Yes, nature rejects scholastic and elegant symbolism produced by physicists because model touches nature always on a single point. All superfluous symbolism invented by physicists to practice their scholastic philosophy must be eliminated if any measurement can result from their symbolism. Nature understands only simple proportions.

Measurement compares unit to measured

Measurement compares a unit to what is measured. Measurement is counting. Therefore, elaborate philosophical symbolism physicists call physical theories are never measured.

Nature ignores academic physics

As expected from professionals who are concerned about protecting and perpetuating their monopoly physicists defined this proprietary communication language that they use to build theories to be science and the only true language understood by nature.

Physicists hide information by encoding it in proprietary languages. The same method is used by Microsoft and any corporation to protect their brands.

All professionals profit from knowledge they’ve hidden

Statements with hidden assumptions are intelligible only to professionals but a statement that has only one meaning is intelligible to everybody.

In order to hide information physicists load every statement with as many hidden meanings as possible so that only they can parse it.

No professional can pretend to have authority if what he says is understood by a non-professional. This is the law professionals will never tolerate to be violated. Why do you think physics professionals to be an exception to this law?

Hoarding information wholesale and selling it retail is the oldest one in the book of scholasticism. Physics professionals are masters of this method.

Physics is not suitable to study fundamentals

In order to speculate on fundamental questions we don’t need to understand physicists’ professional language. Fundamental questions cannot be studied by studying high level languages.

Let’s look at LHC, an experiment that will supposedly reveal the most hidden secrets of nature to physicists who will then reveal them to us.

LHC is a black box experiment and we have no hope of ever understanding the processes of LHC.

Furthermore, there is no one physicist who understands how LHC works or how data is reduced. Every physicist knows her little section of the code that his supervisor tells her to work on, and no more.

There are no absolute discontinuities

We are ignorant of physicists’ professional language but as free thinking independent researchers we know that there are no absolute discontinuities in nature.

Therefore, there are no infinitely hard and absolutely indivisible particles.

When physicists claim to observe “elementary building blocks of nature” we know that they are lying or at least repeating professional dogma.

Initial assumptions are independent of models

We don’t need to understand how physicists reduce data to know that they are lying about observing absolute indivisibles.

What is complicated and not intelligible to outsiders is the way physicists reduce data and how they communicate their research. That’s not physics anyway. That’s computer programming and professional bureaucracy.

Nature is definitional

Anyone can evaluate fundamental propositions because fundamental propositions are simple. If a proposition has more than one meaning then it is not simple therefore it is not fundamental.

Physicists as scholastic doctors will always claim to prove their hidden assumptions by their method of data reduction and modeling. This goes as far back as astronomers who owned the Ptolemaic model. They asserted that the Earth must be stationary because their model worked and made good predictions. Physicists assume that nature is particulate and then prove it with their standard model. Nothing much changed in scholasticism since Ptolemy’s time.

A field becomes science when professional practitioners give up their authority on their professional code and accept that their models cannot prove their doctrine.

Academic physics is still at the primitive stage where practitioners prove their assumptions with their models. And they don’t yet realize how silly that is.

Why do physicists conflate academic physics with technology?

And why are physicists so proud of their achievements? They conflate academic physics with technology and take credit for technological advances.

Physicists take credit for new technology based on electricity as if they’ve discovered electricity. They say without physics there would be no computers, no cell phones, no GPS and so on.

Let us note that the science of electricity was discovered and developed by amateurs and not by professional physicists. And today technological advances are achieve by engineers not by academic physicists.

We are living in a world designed by engineers and inventors such as Edison, we are not living in a world designed by academic physicists. Academic physicists are concerned about the properties of the unmeasurable past and the unmeasurable future.

Why this post?

So what’s the point of this article? To demean academic physicists?

No. This is a note to myself:

question professional authority.

What do you think? Is there a grain of truth in what Tim Leary said?

A critique of Newton’s law of universal gravitation – 3

Posted on November 24, 2008 by zeynel

This is the third part of my commentary on this article about universal gravitation. In this part I will talk about

1. How physicists confuse themselves with their own slogans

2. Terrestrial and celestial realms are unified by Kepler’s rule not by Newton’s force

3. Galileo’s time squared law is wrong but physicists teach it anyway because it is legal and precedence is sacred

4. The claim that physics laws are eternally true in time and in space is a professional propaganda

5. Newton invented the local to total method which is still used today in physics

1. Doing physics with slogans

The idea that the laws of motion that govern the planets are the same as the laws of motion that pertain to us has become a standard definition of what physics is about: the laws of physics are universal and should apply to everything and everyone all over the known universe. We have a lot of evidence that this is so. That whatever can happen here, given the same circumstances, will happen elsewhere in pretty much the same way.

This quote reveals how physicists confuse slogans with laws.

Physicists assume that nature is a legal system that is legislated by Newton’s laws. So it sounds natural for a physicist to use “the laws of motion” as if this were an explanation.

Planetary motions are not “governed” by “the laws of motion” (a euphemism for Newton’s equations of motion which are nothing more than Kepler’s rule written with Newtonian constants and units) but orbits are described by Kepler’s rule.

2. Terrestrial and celestial realms are unified by Kepler’s rule

I don’t see anything extraordinary about the slogan that “the laws of motion that govern the planets are the same as the laws of motion that pertain to us.” The earth is a planet. If Kepler’s rule describes the motion of planets it will also describe the motion of the planet earth.

The author draws the wrong conclusion from the observation that Kepler’s rule describes planetary orbits including the orbit of the earth.

Physicists repeat the buzzword “unification” of the two realms but do not yet understand the implications of this unification.

3. Galileo’s time squared law is wrong

Physicists still teach Galileo’s time squared rule as if it were correct. Galileo’s time squared law is an earth specific rule. It denies the unification. So why do physicist still teach Galileo’s wrong law? Because physicists never question legal physics slogans and mythology, they teach legal physics as is.

Any physicist who even thinks about questioning Galileo’s law will be dubbed a crackpot and terminated if he doesn’t have tenure. Physicists with tenure don’t bother with Galileo.

On the other hand, someone who understands that Kepler’s rule explains planetary motions including the earth’s motion realizes that a freely falling stone is in orbit therefore its motion is described by Kepler’s rule and not by Galileo’s time squared law.

Galileo’s rule is approximately true near the surface of the earth but it is conceptually wrong, nevertheless physicists keep teaching it as if it were the absolute truth only because Galileo’s law is a legal law of physics.

Once again, we see that in physics precedence is sacred. Physicists turned Galileo into a Newtonian demi-god and closed Galileo’s work to further investigations. This is the sign of a legal system. It is the sign of a cargo cult. Academic physics has yet to reach the level of a critical science where everything is open to scientific questioning.

4. Physics laws are eternally true

Let’s get back to the original quote. The conclusion this writer draws from the fact that Kepler’s rule explains planetary motions including the earth’s motion is wrong. He reasons as follows:

1. Newton used Kepler’s rule to compute a half a dozen planetary quantities
2. Since the Earth is a planet Kepler’s rule applies to earth as well
3. Therefore the laws of physics are universal and should apply to everything and everyone all over the known universe.

Number 3 does not follow from 1 and 2 according to standard logic used in other scientific fields.

But it is true that the laws of physics are universally valid as this writer asserts. How? By definition.

Physicists assume that laws of physics are universally valid by definition and if they are shown to be not valid they are amended to save the new observations and consequently physics laws remain eternally valid.

The eternality of physics laws in time and in space is a polemical and political statement because no one can test or verify or falsify such a claim. It is a useless statement that serves no purpose except as a professional propaganda.

But this is not accepted by physicists. Physicists must make the claim that they have “physical” evidence that physics laws are eternally true. Of course, such a claim lowers physics to the bottom of academic fields and outside of scientific disciplines beyond polemical philosophy and into the land of religion and cults such as Pythagorean and Platonic brotherhoods.

We have a lot evidence that this is so.

So I’ve anticipated the writer. He is indeed claiming that there is evidence for the eternality of physical laws. A claim with no scientific basis unless of course as physicists do you defined eternal=not eternal.

That whatever can happen here given the same circumstances will happen elsewhere in pretty much the same way.

Ah, I totally misunderstood him! This is different than what he said above. “Given the same circumstances” is the spoiler.

It is true that a system obeying Kepler’s rule here will obey Kepler’s rule elsewhere and everywhere.

Who can argue with this tautology? It is true. Tautologies are always true. But this has nothing to do with physics laws. Given a pattern A — and Kepler’s rule is a pattern — it will be pattern A everywhere because if it weren’t it wouldn’t be pattern A.

The eternality of physical laws is a propaganda and it is unnecessary and useless but its mere repetition endows the repeating physicist with authority by association. Who wouldn’t want to be a practitioner in a profession whose laws are respected all over the universe by everybody and by everything? Physics as the academic superpower of the universe!

5. Newton’s method of marketing new physical quantities

So, we recognize the local to total routine that Newton introduced to physics and made legal. Newton told his followers “do as I do, always project local to total by authority, no one can check it. Just make sure you have enough authority.”

As anything else in physics the method of local to total too was invented by Newton. Newton did half a dozen planetary computations using Kepler’s rule and defined his computations as the universal force permeating the universe. From local to total, from solar system to totality just by Newton’s authority.

Newtonism

Posted on November 4, 2008 by zeynel

This is the second post on Tom Levenson’s article on Newton’s Principia.

Levenson has attempted to read the Principia as literature

just like John Locke, who had to ask Christiaan Huygens if he could take the mathematical demonstrations on faith (Huygens said he could), I read to see what larger argument Newton was making about the ways human beings could now make sense of material experience.

This shows how much Newtonism has been successful in establishing itself as the true religion of humanity. The key word that I am looking at is “material.” The assumption that nature is matterful and forceful is the fundamental dogma of Newtonian religion. Physicists also successfully combined “matterful and forceful” with the word physical. This way Newtonism is encoded into our language and into our minds.

Newton got the news that the world was material from the Christian god. He boldly asserted that he knew that god created a material and Newtonian world. I guess that would make Newton a prophet. And the poetry that opens the Principia establishes the special relationship that Newton enjoyed with the Christian God who is said to have invited Newton and Halley to a banquet to honor their great scientific frauds.

From Levenson’s use of the word material without realising that it is a code word for Newtonism I conclude that human beings in general perceive nature as a Newtonian and physical place. In the European middle ages a similar intellectual would have perceived nature as a Christian place modelled by Dante.

What makes Newtonism a religion is the fact that human individuals do not realize that they’ve been indoctrinated with the British-Newtonian-Occult definition of nature and that they perceive nature as a British-Newtonian-Occult system.

Am I maybe reading too much into one incidental word that Levenson used?

I read to see what larger argument Newton was making about the ways human beings could now make sense of experience.

Without the word material the quote becomes ambiguous. It seems that we need to explain what kind of experience we are talking about.

their natural experience
their earthly experience
their daily experience
their Newtonian experience

I guess all of these are possible. But the point is that for Newton’s contemporaries nature was not a Newtonian experience. We are so indoctrinated with Newtonism that we no longer remember the pre-Newtonian non-Newtonian nature. Huygens who apparently certified the legitimacy of Newton’s proofs to Lock believed that Newton was guilty of reintroducing into science old scholastic dormitive virtues and active souls by calling them force. Huygens correctly identified that Newton meant force to be Newton’s Soul permeating the universe.

Others, including Leibniz and Berkeley, imagined a relational nature without matter.

Of course, in Europe cosmology has always been mixed with politics. In Newton’s time Cartesian plenum was the official model of the cosmos. Newton proposed to replace the French plenum with the British void. No wonder that the perpetual enemy of the British resisted Newtonian cosmos for about a century before Laplace and Coulomb developed the French version of Newtonism palatable to the French Academie. Eventually this British creed became the official cosmology of every European state and effectively replaced Christianity as the state religion. In other words, the British succeeded in unifying the European science under their own brand.

Newtonism even crossed the Atlantic in stealth mode. Founding fathers rejected the old British political institutions but they did not realize that Newtonism was the colonialism of the mind. They kicked out the British political colonialist but embraced with open arms the British colonialist of the mind.

What I mean is that Newtonian material and forceful occult view of nature was established by propaganda and very sophisticated marketing by the British as the official worldview of humanity and it is still enforced as such by states and governments all over the world. This is where we are today. And physicists as Newtonian faithful teach, polish and perpetuate Newtonism.

Regardless of what physicists say, Newtonism is still taught as absolute truth in introductory physics. The mantra that General Relativity subsumed Newtonism only helps strengthen Newtonian mythology. After all, every physics student believes that he has witnessed Newton’s Soul to set a pendulum in motion in a Cavendish lab.

Physics is nature is newton is as good a framework as any. Physics is only one of an infinitely possible representations of nature. Physicists are not crackpots but the faithful working for the Ministry of Natural Truth programming our perception of nature with their physical semantics that’s why all of us in physics we trust. He who pays physics gets to define the world and for a few dollars physicists will define the universe for you as a spherical cow. If you pay the price you can have an FLRW universe with a cosmological constant of your choice. If your name appears in Forbes list then you can ask physicists to design a multiverse to match the color of your couch. Zeus’ physical theory of lightning was hidden physics that was revealed to us by a 2000 year old programming code. Be flattered that Doctors of Philosophy and Doctors of Theology are staging the great cosmology wars to save your soul.

1. Similar organisms behave similarly

2. Professional classes use doublespeak equipped with poisonous puns to program their constituency

3. Physics is nature is a pun encoded in our language by professional physicists

4. Crackpot as defined by physicists is someone who questions legal physics. Questioning legal physics is science, therefore, in technical physics jargon a scientist is a crackpot

5. Academic physics is an unregulated industry because academic physics has no practical value

6. Nobel laureates should draft a physics ethics rules and establish it as a required class for all physics students

7. Observations, database and model — physics has its own names for these concepts

8. Physics is trigonometric dynamics

9. In physics, if the same observation is saved by many theories and also by a legal physics theory, the legal physics theory is defined as the absolute true representation of nature

10. Physicists have been the guardians of theoretical human knowledge

11. Physicist have betrayed the trust bestowed on them to safeguard human knowledge from unhuman organisms

12. Physicist sold human knowledge to unhuman organisms for personal profit
