Light created Life
Children are expected to take on the characteristics of their parents, so where did the characteristics of life come from? Light is electromagnetic radiation and the characteristics of its electrical part are negative and positive, and those of its magnetic part are attraction and repulsion. Life experiences them (at one level) as No, Yes, I like you (love) and I don't like you (hate). Together they form the bases of the mental/emotional nature of life, and math to boot because negative is related to subtraction, positive to addition, attraction to multiplication and repulsion to division. If this does not fly for you, tell me what else would have the universal reach to do the job?

Can I have some of what you are taking?
Oh! And a bottle of that negatively charged light as well please. . ETA: Welcome to the forum even though I haven't a clue what you are talking about. ![]() . |

The argument is flawed from the simple premise that things aren't only bipolar.. There are many degrees between i love you and i hate you.
As for the negative and positive poles in magnetism they have, afaik, nothing to do with math. It is just signs.. might as well have been # pole and ¤ pole instead of + and -. Also, by taking your argument to the extremes it breaks down because opposites would attract, that means that since i hate 9/11 deniers they would love me, and they don't. How is attraction related to multiplication? i don't see that How is repulsion related to divison? i don't see that While light did create life(by giving energy to it), it haven't given us any characteristics by the way light is. For one we are way too big, and because we work on a macro level quantum physics is mostly irrelevant, whereas it is very relevant for light and how light behaves. We are not both objects and waves. But light is both objects and waves. Also, the electrical negative and positive and the magnetic attraction and repulsion is exactly the same. Sincerely Tobias Welcome to the forum |

Light is not electromagnetic. It is composed of photons.

The only difference between radio waves to your TV and radio. And in your microwave, and cell phones, and light(from the sun or your computer screen) is the frequency and the amplitude.

If Timecubes were like fortune cookies, I think this is the kind of thing that would be printed on the slip.

Are you prepared for the infinite regression? Are you prepared for that?
And although the dichotomy is established, then if light is the progenitor, we have not 2 parents, but one parent with 2 sides, 2 sides of one coin -- the coin of light -- being attraction/repulsion, love/hate, mental/emotional, positive/negative, addition/subtraction, male/female. Still, there is one thing missing, how the coin -- light -- engenders. No. There must be a division before there can be union to produce the child, to produce life, time, space. And that is missing so far in your analysis. So what will that be? What you propose, it will explode the light, and from there the infinite regression, but not back to a Big Bang, not back to singularity, it's "elephants all the way down" when you do that. And now we have an infinite progression forward, but still no mechanism for the primal division to engender the bifurcation of bifurcation. The third iteration/bifurcation yields chaos. (You shall see.) First, there is one thing (light, you say? wait, I'll get to it) and then comes the first bifurcation (from where? that's not explained in your theorizings, and not in mine... yet!) which creates being. Why? Because if there is only one, there is no size, no space, no time. Not yet being. When there are 2, now there is I/you, me/thou, recognition face to face, and understanding that I am because you are and I am not you. We also have time, as I see how you change and you how I change, and space, and dimension. What does this mean for physics? Now we have not just the primal singularity, but matter and energy! These are the first children, do you not agree?! The second bifurcation The two themselves become two each, apparently 4. Now we have a pair of pairs, which give rise to leptons and hadrons (matter, now protons and electrons) and energy yields (at this point, not earier) positive and negative. But where has the light gone? Nowhere. All of this is still light! Let us admit this, then -- let us face it -- we are all cooled light. That is all. We and everything around us are mere light trapped in circuits, so that the circuits, eddies of light on nano-nano-scale, appear as particles, but they are not, not at all billiard balls as the Great Minds of the Renaissance imagined, not even things at all, but events! All things which appear to be objects are not objects, but events! So now we have first light, then the first split which creates energy and matter and also space and time appear necessarily, then the second split which yeilds the proton and electron of matter, and the poles of energy. The third bifurcation yeilds chaos, infinite complexity, the holographic universe in which every portion contains the whole in microcosm. Only at this point is life even thinkable. That is where you have omitted something. What split the light? Tell me that. These are facts. If we are here and speaking, writing, sitting, eating, walking, then we cannot deny all this has happened because it is the universe we experience and which observations of all science reveals. I can say what I think, what split the light to allow it to engender by reunion. But I won't, until I know your word on it from yourself. |

History?
I'm familiar with Time Cube, but as far as I'm concerned it's just gibberish. I understand what lightcreatedlife is saying and I understand the Web site. Anybody can come on and pretend to be something they're not, but why not start with the benefit of the doubt? If I get no answer, then that's where it ends, no? Otherwise we'll see. And perhaps we will see. |

Oh, I think it does make sense, tho not the kind of sense most folks around here are accustomed to making, or hearing. Time Cube, far as I could tell, was no-sense, just strings of strings of strings, word salet. Not saying I'm all on board with lightcreatedlife's postulations, but there's scientists I also don't sit in the same room with. We might be able to have a dialog, who knows?

But surely it wasn't light acting alone which created life. It was light interacting with matter wasn't it?
Shouldn't we also display some of the characteristics of rocks? |

I misread the topic and thought it was "Life created life", and was going to be the tired old argument that "only living things gave birth to living things", therefore what started it all? Must be god.
But it was something else. How refreshing! |
