LM: I have no argument with this... So long as the mathematics  
applies solely to the physical metric spacetime based on the non  
Euclidian coordinate geometry of relativity theory.

But, the ABC hypothesis (based on the assumption that if the metric  
universe is a hologram, then its fundamental geometry must be  
fractal) rests on a completely different geometry (than conventional  
physics) -- whose origin would have to be a true *singularity*  
consisting of non metric (nonlinear) infinite spin momentum of an  
intangible and immeasurable absolute space or "aether" (as defined by  
Einstein) that is empty of all objective form.  IOW this eternal  
unchangeable, immovable and insubstantial primal substance, as the  
noumena of all phenomena, would have to be infinitely energetic,  
located everywhere, as well as *potentially* both subjectively  
conscious and objectively energetic-substantial (between zero and  
infinity) when manifestly expressed.

The only known mathematics that might apply in describing this source  
is Cantor's infinite set theory, and the only fundamental equation  
would necessarily have to be 0 = °.
    
Therefore, the rules of ordinary single or cylindrical coordinate  
mathematics would not apply to the *singularity* of that absolute  
Space...  But, only to the subsequent ubiquitous fractally involved  
ZPE fields that surround the apparently individualized *finite* zero- 
points located at the G-force crossover tangency points (twistors or  
wormholes) between adjacent inner fractal fields and their mother  
field, that descend in infinite triune fractal iterations in dual  
parallel octaval series (analogous to the initial triune cosmic monad  
and its 12 inner fields as pictured in my ABC diagrams). <http:// 
canonizer.com/topic.asp/23/13>

Since I can visualize this in multidimensional graphic animation, and  
describe it by 2-D and 3-D cross-sectional diagrams... Except for the  
electrodynamics and QCD related to the *physical* space time  
continuum -- there is no need for any mathematical equations in my  
explanations... Just like Einstein was able to explain relativity  
theory in word-pictures, without use of any mathematics, and Greene  
was able to explain string physics.

However -- since the finite ZPE source "singularities" of material  
physics, and the 0=° singularity of ABC theory are two different  
things altogether -- the apparently *finite physical* singularities  
at the root of ZPE, black holes, stars, galaxies, etc., can all be  
described (for the benefit of physicists who can only see the  
structure and dynamics of the universe symbolically:-) by string  
theory mathematics and twistor geometry coupled with supersymmetry  
and gauge theories, such as suggested by Penrose, Witten, Hodges, et  
al. .

In the meantime, my main interest is in understandably explaining the  
ABC theory to ordinary people -- while, at the same time, hoping to  
interest professional scientists, of every discipline, into accepting  
its geometric topological framework, and cloaking it with a  
scientific mathematics (and hopefully, experimental proofs) that can  
verify its reality, and pass peer review for publication in  
professional scientific journals as well as popular science magazines  
and newspapers ... The purpose being to ultimately convince the  
entire world, that everything and everyone is linked together in  
mutual interdependence, through the ubiquitous universal  
consciousness... And that the overall condition of the world, its  
culture, economics and ecology, is everyone's individual  
responsibility... Working together in harmoniously balanced mutual  
cooperation and altruism -- rather than disharmoniously separate and  
disruptive competition and greed, or with passive belief that an ex- 
cosmic God-creator guides and controls our individual and common  
destiny.

Accordingly, I think that this should be the motivating goal of all  
*true* scientists -- who understand that science and philosophy must  
eventually be merged and inseparably linked, as the total source of  
universal knowledge and understanding of Mankind's place and purpose  
in the universe.  I think that the integrated study of subjective  
consciousness and its informational linkage with objective mind- 
memory, brain, body, senses, etc. -- from a philosophically  
scientific, physically integrated psychological basis -- will go a  
long way toward achieving such aims.

So let's keep our minds open to all ideas, regardless of whether or  
not they contradict the assumptions, beliefs, or prejudices of  
conventional science or established religions (of all disciplines and/ 
or theologies).

Leon Maurer
