Gr8 video, good idea.

I’m sorry but i’m still not convinced that String Theory is wrong, but he has some beautiful images though =D

Lisi says:

In order to get it to work at all, string theorists have to bend over backwards and put in all sorts of things by hand. This is the main warning sign that a theory doesn’t correspond to nature.

I have to say that I don’t understand that much about string theory…

You are all wrong, the theory of everything is simple, it is evolutionary perspective based and the fact we do not know why we exist. Since we are not advanced enough to realise this fact, then it is likely that things we perceive, as not existing from our perspective, may well exist somewhere. So all we see is our own perspective, as seen on a small planet around a tiny star. What if, everything has a perspective on the Universe? What if, from its perspective it is perfect, like it is for us? How will we ever know this, you ever wondered why we have not found life, it is because our perspective of life is limited. You know why the tiny world is different from the large, because it always is that way from all perspectives, I bet from the perspective of the atom we are like galaxies, or the perspective of the galaxy we are like atoms. Anyway its just a thought :-)
