Let's look at the "physical problem" and assume that the one space of "Divine substance" (no volume) is embedded in our grainy three space physical world. How do you find it? How do you cut it??? How do you cut an infinitely dense infinitesimal width with a "grainy" cut line.

If it never existed there then it never existed and doesn't exist now, and there was no juice to generate the substance of two and then three dimensional space, and we don't exist. Compared to the density of one space, we're just a fleeting grainy few frames on a television boob tube, anyway. > But since a line can be partitioned ad infinitum, your "logic" now > allows for an infinite number of "entities".

Well in mathematical space you can believe (construct) almost anything, assume infinite information densities, continuity point wise, ..etc. But in the REAL physical world there isn't an infinite amount of information, so, it must be that our space is somehow nested in one dimension rather than vice versa. >To some extent I am giving you the benefit of the doubt here.

What are the "time characteristics of ordinary matter"? The general science that is currently taught is sloppy and doesn't bother to consider such a dimension as time and "see" a particles "symmetry" in space and time. It's really nifty, and the meaning of things like charge and gravity fall out very nicely. But that's another newsgroup. The only aspects we need are the concept that a typical particle has a distribution in time as well as space, and the "width" of the time distribution can be calculated from the Heisenberg's relation of uncertainy, where the energy is related to the mass of the neutron. The inverse of the time width is the "number" of times or frequency it is recreated each second. Now this can vary even in our physical universe because it takes time to "recalculate" the particle's next created location and that time depends on the total number of grains that have to be "processed" on each recreation. The numbers go up when the particle drops into a denser and denser gravity field or is being accelerated close to the speed of light. The latter is the result of the particle intercepting nearly as many grains as it can "recalculate" during its flight through the background fields. Consequently, it takes a longer time to obtain information that the accelerating particle should be moving "faster". At the speed of light it can't go faster because it can't make another recalculation! The "relativistic mass" is related to the number of grains it interacts with as it flies through the background fields at nearly the speed of light. Anyway that is an interesting aside, because what is important is that time of existence "real present time" expands into the future and the past as the "energy density goes up". The frequency or "particle framing rate" slows down, correspondingly. The second important thing that takes place during acceleration is contraction into a more "planar" shape normal to the direction of acceleration. Now to become infinitely "thin" the energy expended would have to be infinite. That's not necessary because all that is required is that the object become "thin enough" to "slip between the grains" and it will then "quantum mechanically" disappear into "hypermatter and two dimensional space". That means the energy density of hyper matter is very large, and angels must be very "strong"; my guess is that they would be something up to the level of a "freshly born quasar" in equivalent punch. The possibility of an angel or the Holy Spirit "withdrawing" his physical body (Jesus) into 2 space is just as likely as the extrusion of a physical body into three space from the conversion of hyper energy to matter. Of course, the latter causes a big pop from the air displacement as witnessed by the apostles when Jesus appeared "though the doors were shut". I think they described it as a "big wind". Now if a substance greatly increases its density from 3 to 2 dimensions then it's consistent that it would increase if hypermatter were supercompressed into a line in two space. That means: When it comes to GOD, .. .oops I mean Divine Matter.. forget it, AWESOME .. just doesn't even start to define it. >>...OR as I explained else >> where, it means that the "real present time" expands in width infinitely >> into both the future and the past. > >Really? Can you give us an example of "artificial present time"? Or of time >that doesn't "expand in width"? Cute! I mean to say not a "modeled result" but a real actual occurring sort of thing. >As a result of your "cosmology" or that which astronomers and physicists >dabble in? I think you want to know if Carl Sagan approves? I am sure he might since he spouts hypotheses that are just as colorful and even more controversial. On his recent NOVA appearances he put forth the concept of "black holes", which haven't exactly made themselves very evident, may in fact, be "shrinking to nothingness" or so small that they slip out of our universe. He didn't say where, but then he might have - - I wasn't paying too much attention.
