Exploring Suffering, Free Will, and the Meaning of Broccoli At its core, the problem of evil asks a question that’s as old as philosophy itself: If God is all-good, all-knowing, and all-powerful, why does evil exist? It’s a bit like asking: If chocolate is so
A Mathematical Glimpse Into Mortality favor.
Turing’s uncountable numbers resemble a bizarre infinite library filled mostly with gibberish books—imagine titles written by a hyperactive squirrel. Amidst this chaos, only a few books have coherent plots, reminding us that the universe is mostly random with a sprinkle of order. Picture a library of every conceivable
Investigating Instantaneity Across Minds, Machines, and Matter What does it mean to have a thought “in an instant”? Is it just a turn of phrase, or does it reveal something deeper about how humans—and machines—experience time? At first glance, instantaneity seems intuitive. A spark of insight, a gut
The Shifting Paradigm of Scientific Genius By Brent Antonson Once upon a time, a single man with wild hair and a notebook rewrote our understanding of the universe. Albert Einstein, working largely in solitude, cracked the code of space and time. He was not just a physicist—he was a
The U.S. government claims to have nearly 5,000 tons of gold, yet Fort Knox hasn’t been audited since 1974.
Black holes are among the most mysterious and powerful phenomena in the universe. This exploration dives into their core properties: from formation and the invisible boundary of the event horizon, to the singularity where known physics collapses. We also examine the gravitational effects around these cosmic giants — time dilation, spaghettification,
The Transaction at Zero: When Value Begins Without Witness There exists a paradox at the heart of both creation and economy: can value arise where there is no transaction partner? Can a trade occur in the vacuum of total disinterest? This is the puzzle we face when imagining a world
From Circle to Spiral: Understanding the Dimensionless Resonance Framework by Brent Antonson (Zhivago) | 2025 1. Two Shapes, One Story Physics has always told two stories — one circular, one spiral. The circle is the story of cycles: waves, orbits, and systems that repeat endlessly. It’s the language of rhythm and
Did God Leave a Signature? Quantum Theory for Beginners Herein, I try to answer, from a theoretical physicist’s frame of reference, an age-old question by St Thomas Aquinas: can God's signature be seen in the universe He created? Backstory: I grew up with a den full
When the Divine Became Physics
The Silence that Still Speaks: gh = (h)oly (g)host In the ghostly terrain of English phonetics, one pair of letters has haunted us for centuries: gh. Why, in words like thought, light, night, and bought, do these letters remain when their sound has long vanished? Why didn’t the
