[Philip Benjamin]
Two best physical theories are quantum mechanics (for the least tiny and
probabilistic) and relativity (for the very massive and/or very fast). They
currently use fundamentally and conceptually different kinds of mathematics.
They both have excellent predictive powers, but they use radically different
mathematical language.
Mathematical “constructs” are not necessarily physical realities.
Space-time is a convenient and meaningful mathematical construct. In physical
theories, when equations begin to yield infinites, infinite regress, parallel
worlds etc. best theories are, misrepresent and misalign physical realities.
Then new and more “scientifically” commonsensical ideas are needed, such as
Wave-likeness ≠ Waviness. Newton’s assumptions in his mathematical equations
may be wrong. Time itself may be three dimensional.

Newton's theory doesn't work, If photons have no rest mass they wouldn't be
bent by a gravitational field at all in Newton's theory, and Even if they did
have a rest mass they would be bent by a gravitational field HALF as much as
Einstein says they will be, and experimental observation proves that Einstein's
prediction was right and Newton's prediction was wrong. And if you're waiting
for common sense explanations for modern physical puzzles you're going to be
waiting a very long time

Philip, in 2021 being an anti-Marxist is a bit like being a anti-Viking, there
is just no future in either.
