How Motion … Created the Universe

ORAL

Abstract

Science and in particular physics are fundamentally an intellectual endeavor. As such, it is founded on the mechanics of how the human mind perceives and expresses the outside world. In other words, how we think (logic) is how we speak. In linguistics, word order typology reveals that the first-order logic code the human brain uses to practice science is conveyed as existence (subject, object) precedes motion (verb). However, the human brain also uses another first-order logic code to express the natural world, i.e., motion (verb) precedes existence (subject, object). The former logic code has got it right to the extent of providing mankind with sufficient knowledge (theories) of the universe. Recently, the later logic code was used in a twelve-year experiment which obtained necessary empirical knowledge thereby establishing absolute internal validity. To test for absolute external validity, one’s own existence can be put to task safely via a thought experiment or in real life (not recommended). What this all means is that the logic used in science and specifically in physics has got it wrong because it is not based on how nature works and in order to advance from a sufficient study of the natural world to a necessary study, a paradigm shift is required thus needs to be explored.
