Another Hit for the C's - "There's No Such Thing As Time"

[Vulcan59]

Check out the article below. It's an excerpt of a new book by Adam Frank. It discusses the solution to the problem of time in physics and cosmology by Julian Barbour, a British physicist, who channels Parmenides!

Interesting! I would like to know what ark thinks of Barbours papers...

Politely:I do not really grasp it.

Sincerely: primitive

But, also, sincerely, sometimes I change my mind.

Here's an interesting piece Adam Frank wrote for NPR before his book came out:

This is an intriguing character. We share similar professional research interests in two different ways: sociocultural influences of cosmology, and stellar astrophysics. And his views on time are quite fascinating.

Well, I'm not a physicist but I think it's right about "time" we head towards something else than the classic big bang theory (how is that theory still existing anyways). The C's have also said that the string theory is no good.

Funny though they talk about flaws in Einstein's theory. Everytime they do, I think about how hard it must have been for him to finally work on time loops/UFT, discovering the hyperdimensional nature of reality and then being 'forced' to change direction by the PTB (if the story is true of course). Must be hard to know the anwser but having to spread disinfo and being pointed wrong by others, you know what I mean. I think I would be mad and go crazy (so to speak).

Anyhow, thanks for the link! Even if it's "primitive" and who knows - wrong, it still is better than the classic "big bang 14G years ago, universe created from nothing, there is no God (Hawking) etc etc etc.
