Yup and for a grown up reason. 

In science, an idea like point particles is sound if and only if the
quantitative, calculated predictions of a theory based on that idea do in
fact match observational measurements. Period, end of story. You may
dislike that because you hate anything that smacks of numbers (bean
counting, you call it), but that’s too bad — this is what truth in science
means. There is no possible informed debate about that. 

Note that this means that the validity of the idea does NOT hinge on any of
the things you favor: 

- that it matches common experience
- that it agrees with prior assumptions, like Newtonian absolute time
- that it is explainable in plain language in at most a few paragraphs
- that it is visualizable as a picture or an animation
- that it has obvious practical application for improving human condition 

Much to your dismay, NONE of these things have any voice in whether the
idea is sound.

John is right. You are a fool. NOTHING in reality has zero dimensions 
and yet exists. Point particles are pure fantasy and your libtard 
philosophy that reality is just your fantasies is so anti-science as to 
render you worthy of being ignored. If you had read my book instead of 
insisting on maintaining your ignorant state, you'd know that. Insisting 
on staying ignorant is ALSO anti-science behavior. Quit pretending you 
know science. You know NO science even the basis rules. You are a fool.

That's wrong.

You complain about science having 'point particles', but you never give a
reason why you think that's wrong.  Yet you have no problems with spinny
things magically precessing without any external torque or energy applied.
(and without even a reason, precession solves no problems at all!)
You also dream up total fictional crap like "if you magnify your Atom so
it's as big as a galaxy, then they are identical", without explanation.

Why John? Why do you expect anyone to accept your bogus claims without
even a reason for believing it, yet you get upset over fundamental point
particles and what you mistakenly call "suck gravity".

If you want me to show you a picture of an atom, I will show you a galaxy.
How does other matter ‘feel’ gravity?
The same way we can see galaxies- by their RADIATION.

Curved Space? Lay off the drugs

Atom in a box is a probability distribution for spheres.
So- atoms are spheres, you say.
Good start.
Your 3 quarks are in the middle? Do they spin, or just do something you can’t describe/picture?
We know your electrons do something you can’t describe/picture.
You know what? You just don’t HAVE a model- that’s why you can’t picture it.
Aw!  :(

No it isn’t. Good grief. Why do you make stuff up?

> So- atoms are spheres, you say.

Some are, some not. None are disks. 

> Good start.
> Your 3 quarks are in the middle? 

Depends on the atom. That’s a region 10,000 time smaller than the atom size
so it’d be a pin prick sized spot in the middle of atom in a box. You
wouldn’t see their pattern anyway. 

> Do they spin, or just do something you can’t describe/picture?
> We know your electrons do something you can’t describe/picture.

Atom in a box. That’s the picture. I don’t know why you don’t get this. You
keep saying, that’s s picture of something else, not a picture of what the
electron is doing. No, that IS the picture of what the electron is doing.
You just don’t recognize it.

“that IS the picture of what the electron is doing. ”
So why, pray tell, does attophysics find that the electron has a period?

Because you have completely misinterpreted whatever it was you read when
you concluded the electron has a period.

Who said that, besides you? 
10000 ways to guess wrong. 
Read, and there’s no guessing involved.

Hermes

Second line:

Sure sounds like galaxies are atoms to me.
(This is Isaac Newton’s translation.)

Nothing about plancks or quantum foam! :/

Thales, from about the same era you are quoting from, also believed that
the fundamental entity out of which all existence stemmed, was water. He
stated that the earth floated on an infinitely deep pool of water. His
Miletan disciples included Anaximenes, who believed instead the the
fundamental entity was air. 

So if this is your referential repository of truth....

Newton, by the way, was fascinated by alchemy, which is why he bothered to
translate this text. I take it that you believe that a really old book on
alchemy is the secret of future science.
