Greetings, /sci/. I know you hate me, so I'll leave you alone after this thread.

Do you personally believe a theory of everything is worth searching for? If we constantly discover new particles and forces, then we can't truly have a theory of everything, so what's the point? Why can't we just use GR and QM to the best of their abilities rather than searching for a TOE and having it crushed as soon as something new is revealed?

Anyways, a Theory of Everything would describe its own existence. Go figure.

Yes it's worth it, it would feel really good.

We also aren't constantly 'disovering' new forces and particles. Who told you that?

I think Godel's Incompleteness theorem is relevant to the quest for the TOE in the negative :( Still, individuals so far more hardcore than I can ever imagine being like such as Vodvoskey would prolly disagree with me, so I dunno.

This is what Hilbert's 6th problem is about, isn't it?

1, There is a theory of everything
2, We will constantly discover new truths

Pick one.

"The proof for the theory of everything is everything, itself."

I can hear the announcement already.
