Hi Alea.....

thanks.....so science has already decreed that it is inconsistent
to have magnetic fields without also having electric fields.

Instead we have the notion of gravity..........

There are as many secrets & facts buried in science
as there is in the Vatican vaults.....Smile

Doma.

Hi doma,

You have a hypothesis about the electric universe. This hypothesis is likely testable at some point. If it turns out the hypothesis yields results which conform with your hypothesis and resists attempts at falsification, then you have something which is science.

Until then, it's a hypothesis which may or may not reflect reality. From the little I have read on the electric universe, the idea is a long shot. But I am not the one to make a useful judgement.

But one thing that isn't science is the presumption that a hypothesis is true merely because you assert it. That's called faith. It has a place. But it doesn't pass the threshold of science, which is distinct from religion insofar as its tenets have been tested in the ways that anyone has imagined.

If any scientific hypothesis is disproved, it ceases to be science. That's the great thing about it. Its ideas have been tested. They conform with the facts that we are aware of. Science is a dynamic system based on factual evidence. This means all of the facts of science are - as far as we know - consistent at any point. In this way, it is quite different from religion.
