Re: Why isn't light speed infinite?

historian wrote:

"Bell's Theorem suggests that the mechanics of, say, a high-powered lasar beam must somehow involve interaction between virtual paired photons, one in this universe, and one in a hidden dimension that is not subject to space or time. So, the speed of light can be explained by saying that light creates its own space and should, thus, travel infinitely fast in that hidden dimension. The interaction between those virtual photons must somehow be the cause of light slowing down from infinite speed to that which we know."

Hmmmm... Ummm I have had many quantum classes and worked with lasers for over a decade... Would you care to explain to me how any of your statement is at all justified? Please be detailed...:)

historian then reasoned(?)
"Perhaps the speed of light is a clue to understanding "what came before", because it hints of some new parameter or curvature or whatever.

Following along this line of reasoning, it would seem that two black holes are completely independent of each other, and do not "connect" in some other universe. That is, what is observed about the gravitational effects of black holes is only a relationship between this universe and a PROCESS rather than a PLACE.

Thus, completely separate universes could pop up anywhere, any time, with no connection among them, ever."

The logical progression between these statements is as clear as espresso.... Could you fill in the gaps in your argument for those of us not as "scientific minded" as you seem to be?

It seems you have taken terms from physics an just randomly jumbled them in with "thus" and "Following along this line of reasoning" etc... am I wrong?
just curious...
