The Road Less Traveled… To Quantum Gravity (Synopsis) [Starts With A Bang]
If we want to understand the Universe at a fundamental level — all the forces on all scales — the biggest obstacle facing us is to come up with a correct, consistent, testable and verifiable theory of quantum gravity. To no one’s great surprise, we’re not quite there yet.

In 2001, Lee Smolin — one of the leading thinkers in quantum gravity — made the bold prediction that,
“We shall have the basic framework of the quantum theory of gravity by 2010, 2015 at the outside.”
While we’re not at all there yet, it’s still fascinating in its own right to take a look at where we actually are. In an exclusive interview, Sabine Hossenfelder gets Lee talking about the state of the field, where we’ve come, and what we have left to do.

theories that have been disproven:
the big bang and therefore the expanding universe theory. the universe is not expanding.
gravity. there is no such thing as gravity as we think of it. there is only electricity and magnetism. gravity is a function of this, not an independent force unto itself.
carbon dating. does not work.
i know there are many theories we are all operating under that are a bunch of baloney, but these are a few.
77gslinger yt channel has info on these 3 and more.
scientism is used to control and confuse the masses, keeping us in the paradigm that the universe is destructive in nature in that we must destroy, burn, explode things for fuel. this is unnecessary. there is enough energy in one square inch of “empty” space to power a small town, but tptb can’t make money off that.
wilhelm reich, for one, and tesla knew this and were promptly shut out and shut up.
science lies.
