The first step to recovery is admitting there is a problem.
Thanks Dr. Smolin!!
Here are some quotes from your rockin' book and my responses:
"Thus all the theories that triumphed had consequences for experiment
that were simple to work out and could be tested within a few years.
This does not mean that the theories could solved exactly-most theories
never are. But it does mean that physical insight lead immediately to a
prediction of a new physical effect." -Lee Smolin, The trouble With
Physics, The Rise of String Theory, The Fall of Science, and What Comes
Next
While MDT doesn't predict a new physical effect, it does explain
physical phenomena such as entanglement and action-at-a-distance as
never before. Furthermore, it also unifies GR and QM with a simple
physical model. Also, it shows that quantum mechanical and relativistic
phenomena derive from the same underlying physical reality--a fourth
dimension that is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions.

Glad you agree. See a therapist soon.
Rest of usual delusional rubbish snipped.

Why do you keep posting this junk? To irritate people? If you really want
for your views to be taken seriously you'd better change your strategy.

It's not a difference of opinion. Many theists (the more religious
ones) can't stand the thought that there are people who can go through
life with no belief. It offends them. It terrifies them. It's...
