What scientific process is involved in the universe being a computer programYou are joking with Tom Paine, right? That is the sort of argument that a creationist gives to rationalize a young 6,000 year old earth.The speed of light is decreasing as time advances ... these distant galaxies aren't moving away from us, the light they emit is moving faster ... thus only giving the appearance of recession ... when in fact, they are stock still ...
That's from an op-ed in SciAm talking about the confrontation part of scientific method ... it's necessity and where lacking hurts the scientific process ... and the author used GR as an example of something nobody is trying to disprove ... and he offer the monstrosity above, noting it didn't have to be good, just competitive ...
Anyway ... it makes for some pretty good amateur-grade crackpotism ...
