Nope... because c is not an acceleration from us but from absolute rest (just as our shrinking is): the speed of light is just a value "c" slower than ours... so that no matter how much "we" may accelerate/decelerate, the speed of light will match our speed "perfectly" throughout eternity. If anything, imagine our relationship as a foot-long rubberband one end of which is absolute rest while the other end is "our" speed (and place the speed of light at one inch from "our" end). Now stretch the rubber band to signify "our" speed increasing away from absolute rest: Notice that instead of the one-inch marker for the speed of light moving towards us it actually moves away from us (as the speed of "shrinking" increases): It may be that in this same way, the speed of light will tend to slow down even as our speed away from absolute rest increases. But we (the speed of light and "ours") are forever married. Both speeds WILL speed up. But because we will never really know what our speed is in relation to absolute rest 1) we will never really notice this acceleration 2) it is likely we will never even notice c "slowing down" because it will take billion of years for enough of it to do so [and since we measure these rates as time, how will we understand that "time has slowed down"..?!?!?!?!]. > Can > shrinking > space be expressed as an exponential value, Even Babaloo can be expressed as an exponential value. > or is it linear function > that > determines the rate of shrinkage? The rate of shrinkage = the speed of "our" (ordinary matter) motion. It is linear only if you say it's "toward shrinking." (Although one can give it any value one wishes, in reality... it's hard to calculate how fast we're shrinking because "size" is only an idea in the human mind (like time): Forever & ever... we shall be confined to measuring one size IN our universe against some other size IN our universe... and the entire universe (including even the photon) seems to be shrinking at the usual rate (albeit the photon "has found" a way to "disengage partly" from this rate). Now all you have to do is find out what role the speed of light plays (why it's the rate it is and not some faster/slower rate) and you've got it! I myself have no ideas there. > I would also like to make the complaint that this idea of the universe > expanding at an increasing rate is just a result of the latest > calculations.

Not one bit certain at all: I came up with my idea of a collapsing universe ten or more years ago, while the findings that the so-called "expansion" of the universe may be accelerating are only 2-3 years old: I accepted the findings as support for my idea of an imploding universe and as proof the Big Bang theories cannot be true (but this may just be wishful thinking on my part). Indeed let's wait until the preliminary findings are more solid and just say for now that the model of an imploding universe predicts that the Hubble constant will be found to be accelerating. [The notion of an expanding universe comes from guessing that 1) if it were a collaping universe the galaxies would have long ago crashed, or 2) if it were a universe neither collapsing or expanding... how to explain that the galaxies' gravity does not interact!?!?! There's really one good guess (if one does not understand/know that the only fundamental thing in the universe is the force of gravity and that, consequently, all the "forms" of matter are just "forms"). This is the main reason why until MY ADVENT... the guess was it was an expanding universe. But now you know better, as I have taught you. > Please observe that I used something called "MATH" to bring about my > proposal, something you never did, EVER, in your essay. That's the difference between speaking to an elite group and speaking to the world: I choose to speak to the world not just because I observed that the only thing one gains by speaking to an elite group is a better jockeyed position within that elite group. I am not jockeying for any such position. Sorry. My sole interest is the dissemination of knowledge to mankind.

Or does it even work at all? Simple: Forget about time: It's just an idea in your head (not any different than Sanity Claws... you know, the evil twisted fat guy dressed in red who keeps trying to turn our Savior's Birthday into a crass commercial celebration of sheer raw naked Greed). And, by the by, a black hole expands ONLY as it eats up matter: It gets fat, really. But it does shrink (because like all the other "forms" of matter in our universe a black hole is also just another "form" of matter). > You also seem to puzzle me on why you think that we are always moving > the > speed of light, and that photons are motionless?

I am confident this will puzzle you even more: You seem to believe the place photons end up is "a" place: No! 1) Whatever direction "a" photon seems to be moving from... that individual photon's orientation was given to it by its source. 2) Every individual photon source gives it an individual orientation that is unrelated to the orientation other photons got from their sources. 3) Every photon source has a de facto agreement with all the other photon sources in our universe (and that agreement is that they will all recognize the orientation given any & all photon by any & all photon sources). 4) Therefore, two photon sources, to the right & left of each other, may give two photons orientations which make these two photons cross each other's path... and even crash into each other, if their photon sources have very, very good aims both. > if I read your claim correctly, photons sit still in > space, Only for the sake on an easier understanding, yes. Otherwise you will have to understand that the motion of all "forms" of matter is "towards shrinking" (therefore the photon, which is just another "form" of matter, MUST also be moving "towards shrinking" ... albeit it does this in a most unusual and splendid manner quite different from all the other forms of ordinary matter). > and > we shrink relative to their position, making it appear that they move > the > speed of light. Yes--See how it makes it easier for you to achieve a little bit of understanding at a time... when I break up paragraphs and sentences into smaller bits! > Then photons cannot move towards each other, ever. You're dropping all the photons into ONE SINGLE place! That's not what's happening (read the above, or just give up and think not of matter shrinking but of space expanding FROM/AT every coordinate... now you will see that you THE PHOTON SOURCE are at the center of the universe, and that every time you spit out a photon it will rush away in the direction you spat it---You can spit photons in any direction you like and they will rush away WITH that direction; and if you and some other photon spitter decide to spit photons at each other... you will be able to do so BECAUSE you and every other photon spitter in our universe have signed a contract called The Absolute Relativity Contract... which basically says that if any one of you spits out a photon you will all agree that the direction the spitter spit his photon is good enough for all of you and none of you will object and try to argue that that direction is really some other direction... basically it gives each spitter the absolute right to set the direction of every one of the photons he/she spits absolutely in our universe). The only proviso is that if some other spitter (say, a massive gravitational field this other spitter) grabs a spit photon (instead of spitting one itself) and then puts it in its mouth AND spits it, then it becomes that photon's de facto spitter, and that photon's original spitter has lost his/her claim to dictating that photon's trajectory from that moment on. > This > makes no sense when considering the REAL UNIVERSE.
