No matter how clever the observations and deductions any rational entity is limited by the universe as a domain.

At the edges, one may reasonably posit additional dimensions beyond space-time.

However, in a manner inverse to Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle, it will prove to be that we can never know anything that BIG.

And that this upper bound of understanding is just as basic to our domain as the lower bound.

Our instruments break down due to quantum effects and an underlying need for non-determinism in God’s design. They also breakdown when we must scale them up to the size of a galaxy, or when even the best indirect information is distorted by space and time back to a single point ‘birth’ event.

It is further hard to square a non-creator creation that points entirely to a one-shot irreversible flow: entropy ever rising – time only flowing forward.

That’s the kind of behavior more common to a chemistry or biology experiment, driven by the curiosity of a higher power.

Speculation along Hawking’s line does serve to embolden the worst aspects of tyrannical behavior. Is he so detached from normality that the moral hazard of propounding his thesis bothers him not?

Taken, all in all, his latest ‘brainwave’ comes off as vainglory.

Having not quite solved cosmology — he’s taking a detour —

producing a Unified Field Theory of Everything Incorporeal and Corporeal.

Well, at least it’s unfalsifiable!
