God, I hope it never crosses your mind

Ah! You really ought to be a researcher! O what
a marvelous researcher you would be: "There are
50 ways to get cold fusion, so I won't bother
explaining all 50 of them..."

Sir, take it from me: You are mentally unbalanced.
(Either that, or you just don't realize that getting
your equation properly balanced is the same as
not having it turn up queer results [not make sense]
as you mention above!) Which is really the same...
So I suggest a good doctor (sir, this means NOT a
poor one, you understand).

As for sane folks... and string theory: The rule
(against it) is self-evidently inviolable (so there
really is no reason to go beyond here):

     If there is a fundamental particle
     it requires God to have created it.

In conventional religion the universe itself is
that fundamental particle, therefore God creates
the universe (actually, the originators of these
religions didn't even know about the existence of
the universe so they have their gods laboring for
days on planet Earth to the neglect of "the rest
of the stuff out there"). In string theory it is the
"strings" themselves which are fundamental...
and that makes string theory fantasy, not science.
String theory "science" requires taking the string
apart. And we're not there yet.

In this arena, science is about the ongoing quest
to discover what our most fundamental particles
are made of (how they are put together). And NOT
(never) about setting any of them up as ultimately
fundamental. This is why modern physics is said
to have begun with the idea that it was possible
to split the atom (the last fundamental particle ever
proposed by true/real science).
