M-theory is a theory in physics, that incorporates and generalizes the five superstring theories. It was first proposed by Edward Witten in 1995, during a conference at USC. While not complete, M-theory can be applied in many situations, ironically including supernatural situations. The incompleteness of this theory provides good ground for the formulation of an M-theory creation model.
An interesting side note of M-theory is that in naming it, Witten he did not say what the M stands for. He has stated that “’M’ stands for ‘magic,’ ‘mystery’ or ‘membrane,’ depending on your taste.” Other suggestions included “matrix” and “mother of all theories”. However has will be show below, from a Creation Science stand point M would best stand for miracles.
The one down side to M-theory, is that at present it make no unique predictions that could be used to falsify it or at least none that are currently testable, but this is a common difficulty with cutting edge theories that under development. This is a problem of developing the theory and technology catching up, and is not inherent to M-theory itself.

Science has reached an enormous impasse. From biology to physics, astronomy to genetics, the scientific community is reaching the limits of understanding which often presage a complete rethinking of long-accepted theories. So characteristic of this new apex of modern arrogance is the inability to comprehend the obvious in physics: That we don't know what we are talking about.

Last December ('05), physicists held the 23rd Solvay Conference in Brussels, Belgium. Amongst the many topics covered in the conference was the subject matter of string theory. This theory combines the apparently irreconcilable domains of quantum physics and relativity. David Gross a Nobel Laureate made some startling statements about the state of physics including: "We don't know what we are talking about" whilst referring to string theory as well as "The state of physics today is like it was when we were mystified by radioactivity."

The Nobel Laureate is a heavyweight in this field having earned a prize for work on the strong nuclear force and he indicated that what is happening today is very similar to what happened at the 1911 Solvay meeting. Back then, radioactivity had recently been discovered and mass energy conservation was under assault because of its discovery. Quantum theory would be needed to solve these problems. Gross further commented that in 1911 "They were missing something absolutely fundamental," as well as "we are missing perhaps something as profound as they were back then."

Coming from a scientist with establishment credentials this is a damning statement about the state of current theoretical models and most notably string theory. This theoretical model is a means by which physicists replace the more commonly known particles of particle physics with one-dimensional objects which are known as strings. These bizarre objects were first detected in 1968 through the insight and work of Gabriele Veneziano who was trying to comprehend the strong nuclear force.

Whilst meditating on the strong nuclear force Veneziano detected a similarity between the Euler Beta Function, named for the famed mathematician Leonhard Euler, and the strong force. Applying the aforementioned Beta Function to the strong force he was able to validate a direct correlation between the two. Interestingly enough, no one knew why Euler's Beta worked so well in mapping the strong nuclear force data. A proposed solution to this dilemma would follow a few years later.

Almost two years later (1970), the scientists Nambu, Nielsen and Susskind provided a mathematical description which described the physical phenomena of why Euler's Beta served as a graphical outline for the strong nuclear force. By modeling the strong nuclear forces as one dimensional strings they were able to show why it all seemed to work so well. However, several troubling inconsistencies were immediately seen on the horizon. The new theory had attached to it many implications that were in direct violation of empirical analyses. In other words, routine experimentation did not back up the new theory.

Needless to say, physicists romantic fascination with string theory ended almost as fast as it had begun only to be resuscitated a few years later by another 'discovery.' The worker of the miraculous salvation of the sweet dreams of modern physicists was known as the graviton. This elementary particle allegedly communicates gravitational forces throughout the universe.

The graviton is of course a 'hypothetical' particle that appears in what are known as quantum gravity systems. Unfortunately, the graviton has never ever been detected; it is as previously indicated a 'mythical' particle that fills the mind of the theorist with dreams of golden Nobel Prizes and perhaps his or her name on the periodic table of elements.

But back to the historical record. In 1974, the scientists Schwarz, Scherk and Yoneya reexamined strings so that the textures or patterns of strings and their associated vibrational properties were connected to the aforementioned 'graviton.' As a result of these investigations was born what is now called 'bosonic string theory' which is the 'in vogue' version of this theory. Having both open and closed strings as well as many new important problems which gave rise to unforeseen instabilities.

These problematical instabilities leading to many new difficulties which render the previous thinking as confused as we were when we started this discussion. Of course this all started from undetectable gravitons which arise from other theories equally untenable and inexplicable and so on. Thus was born string theory which was hoped would provide a complete picture of the basic fundamental principles of the universe.

Scientists had believed that once the shortcomings of particle physics had been left behind by the adoption of the exotic string theory, that a grand unified theory of everything would be an easily ascertainable goal. However, what they could not anticipate is that the theory that they hoped would produce a theory of everything would leave them more confused and frustrated than they were before they departed from particle physics.

The end result of string theory is that we know less and less and are becoming more and more confused. Of course, the argument could be made that further investigations will yield more relevant data whereby we will tweak the model to an eventual perfecting of our understanding of it. Or perhaps 'We don't know what we are talking about.'

Below you can hear one alternative YouTube 'explanation' of 'mainstream' modern physics theory ;


While the general sense of this 'Heisenberg-Einstein' approach to physics may well seem OK, it certainly looks like science with bad definition of even its basics like mass, energy and space. This also maybe looks like a physics that is a poorly defined image theory, of Gilbert-Newton signal attraction physics theory where all physical objects are observers and/or signals. In comparison, 'Heisenberg-Einstein' observer physics has only anthropocentric or anthropomorphic observers in a universe in which mankind is unjustifiably totally different from the rest of the universe. In a Gilbert-Newton signal attraction physics where all physical objects are automaton observers/responders, mankind fits more naturally and has only the addition of thought to its processes. Physical objects and mankind differ basically only to the extent that programmed computers and self-learning computers differ. Gilbert-Newton signal attraction physics can reasonably claim to better unify the physical and biological and to be the least anthropocentric physics, and certainly not the most anthropocentric and anthropomorphic as widely falsely claimed. (anthropocentrists trying to widen 'mankind' by including gods and/or alien life amounts to little real widening.) William Gilbert's experiments showed rocks attract rocks basically still not disproved, and it may well be that both types of theory have some valid defined place in some well defined physics.

But modern physics also includes theories like String theory, Loop theory, M-theory and other theories which are often poorly defined and based on ridiculously weak science terminology assumptions such as 'we all know what 'mass' is'. Well no - there are actually quite a range of different physics ideas of what mass is exactly, and they will not all be consistent with a particular physics theory. Any science theory without exact definitions should perhaps be taken as being a weak science theory.

Quantum physics and Quantum Mechanics.

String theory is basically a quantum physics that involves the universe consisting of only one type of one-dimension 'string' body which has many different ways of vibrating within 10 'dimensions'. If the meaningfullness of 10 dimensions is doubtful, the meaningfullness of a 1-dimensional body is at least equally doubtful. String Theory seems to build a physics on an object that cannot exist.

But quantum physics started basically as the application of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and probability to a Particle Physics, though that is perhaps really only fully applicable to a Wave Mechanics with wave mathematics necessarily linking position, motion and momentum unlike particle mathematics. More clearly in its early day Quantum Physics was basically a form of Descartes mechanical physics, but has since become a less direct form of push physics as modern Quantum Mechanics which has fully adopted the scary science Duality Principle and has now mostly become a 'wave theory' with its 'wave' poorly defined.

Duality, claiming that everything is a wave and is not a wave, is so plainly self-contradicting that it clearly disproves itself. And that is without the additional modern requirement of waves that they are also now claimed to need no medium to wave. Support for these scary science ideas has given us an Emperors Clothes physics where none wants to risk their reputation by pointing out that these things are clearly ridiculous. The peer mob rules and maintains modern scary physics. Even Einstein bought scary duality when it was maybe of little real use to his relativity theory which in any case had other major problems.

Like both Relativity theory and String theory, Quantum Mechanics was basically another form of Descartes mechanical push physics and all three of them have problems that still await satisfactory scientific solutions. They require that A forces an effect in B, unlike Gilbert-Newton attraction theory, but have no real force/push mechanism - and especially so modern quantum mechanics which allows multiple things to occupy the same space and so does not even have contact for a push or force mechanism. Some see duality as having increased the power of quantum physics, but some see it as having seriously disabled quantum physics.

Quantum Mechanics theory has developed and is still developing in a variety of directions involving field theories and/or particle theories, as in the 'particle theory Standard Model' - though that often including 'massless particles' that are maybe better termed energy quanta and so not a particle theory in any Descartes sense. Often such theories require particles to occupy the same space and/or require forcefields or energy quanta to somehow have push abilities like mass particles though meaningful mechanisms and indeed meaningful definitions are often not offered. Of course a signal theory can readily allow of energy quanta signals occupying the same space and having push or pull type response effects with no problem.

Quantum mechanics also claims that evidence supports an 'entanglement' instant-communication property for some pairs of particles or photons, created as by radioactive decay, linking them no matter how far apart they are so if one particle changes spin then the other instantly changes spin oppositely. Such quantum entanglement of particles or photons, or even of atoms, looks very much like action-at-a-distance with no explanation or mechanism at all. Einstein called it 'Spooky action-at-a-distance' though he offered no specific evidence against it and offered no alternative explanation. It being specific to only particular particles makes entanglement certainly even stranger than instant at-a-distance general forces. But a signal physics can more naturally handle multiple-signal emissions having related information without requiring any mystical 'entanglement'.

Quantum Mechanics generally incorporates the Uncertainty Principle at least in relation to human observers. But the Uncertainty Principle applying to ANY observer can perhaps only fully apply to a physics like William Gilbert's where all physical objects are observers in that they respond to gravity etcetera signals from other physical objects - ie. to a non-mechanical Gilbert Quantum Signal Physics ? The same should also apply for Relativity theory for ANY observer as against Einstein limiting it just for human observers ?

The unfortunately vague definition of 'observer' and 'observation' in both Relativity and Quantum Mechanics theory, with some even confusing observing with experimenting, has even allowed some physicists to conclude that 'observation' can physically affect things observed. And that has encouraged a very doubtful philosophy or religion around a claimed 'Law of Attraction' in which the human mind is supposed to be able to control the physical universe. If observation is just the reception of such signals as things emit then that cannot affect the emitter - and then experiments such as attempt to elicit such signals, or responses to such signals, might affect the emitter but would not be observations.

You can read another quantum mechanics view of the issue at Many-Minds Quantum Mechanics.

Of course these physics theories have used somewhat different actual mathematics, but that does not perhaps preclude some of them being developed to use similar mathematics. And since nobody can really prove that one object can actually touch or actually push another object, mechanical physics theories are perhaps not the only physics explanation theories possible ? Certainly modern physics has now mostly, though not entirely, abandoned the early-'victorious' Descartes matter-only physics framework for the early-'defeated' Gilbert-Newton matter-and-energy physics framework. But without acknowledging that the first big physics-war was 'won' very wrongly, and without reconsidering the basic science issues at all - wrongly taking all early physics as Cartesian physics but calling it Newtonian. Perhaps unsurprisingly the modern physics resulting is full of dispute.

A few physicists today do take a Newton-like black-box view that explanations are not needed at all, and that only some best mathematics is required for physics. With current physics 'explanation theories' being so diverse, weakly defined, and contradictory, as to perhaps offer no real explanations, maybe such a Newton-like black-box position is preferable - though maybe needing stronger agreed rules for deciding what makes the best mathematics ?

2009 saw a Gilbert-Newton quantum signal attraction physics seemingly getting some modern backing from the new Hořava time-invariant quantum gravity, Hořava quantum gravity. (On ideas relating the basics of signal theory to quantum mechanics theory see A Gersten, Annals of Physics 1998 1 and A Gersten, Annals of Physics 1998 2.)

Of course there are other problems to trying to reconsile Gilbert-Newton physics with post-Einstein physics. Hence while Gilbert and Newton took the mass of natural experiment and experience as showing Magnetism, Electricity and Gravity being basically similar forces, Einstein and later physics depends on treating gravity as being entirely different and not any force. The observed behaviour of gravity is certainly very similar to that of the other forces, but does any physics fully explain the similarities and the differences ?!
