What is The Most Simple Science
Theory of Reality?
On the Metaphysics of Space and Motion and the Wave Structure of Matter
(Aristotle, 340BC) The first philosophy (Metaphysics) is universal and is exclusively concerned with primary substance. ... And here we will have the science to study that which is just as that which is, both in its essence and in the properties which, just as a thing that is, it has. ... That among entities there must be some cause which moves and combines things. ... There must then be a principle of such a kind that its substance is activity.
(Gottfried Leibniz, 1670) It is a good thing to proceed in order and to establish propositions (principles). This is the way to gain ground and to progress with certainty. ... I hold that the mark of a genuine idea is that its possibility can be proved, either a priori by conceiving its cause or reason, or a posteriori when experience teaches us that it is a fact in nature. ...
Reality cannot be found except in One single source, because of the interconnection of all things with one another. ... I do not conceive of any reality at all as without genuine unity. ... I maintain also that substances, whether material or immaterial, cannot be conceived in their bare essence without any activity, activity being of the essence of substance in general.
(Bradley, 1846-1924) We may agree, perhaps, to understand by Metaphysics an attempt to know reality as against mere appearance, or the study of first principles or ultimate truths, or again the effort to comprehend the universe, not simply piecemeal or by fragments, but somehow as a whole. (Bradley)
(Albert Einstein, Physics and Reality, 1936) Physics constitutes a logical system of thought which is in a state of evolution, whose basis (principles) cannot be distilled, as it were, from experience by an inductive method, but can only be arrived at by free invention. The justification (truth content) of the system rests in the verification of the derived propositions (a priori/logical truths) by sense experiences (a posteriori/empirical truths). ... Evolution is proceeding in the direction of increasing simplicity of the logical basis (principles). .. We must always be ready to change these notions - that is to say, the axiomatic basis of physics - in order to do justice to perceived facts in the most perfect way logically.
Most of the fundamental ideas of science are essentially simple, and may, as a rule, be expressed in a language comprehensible to everyone.
... In my opinion the theory here is the logically simplest relativistic field theory that is at all possible. But this does not mean that nature might not obey a more complex theory. More complex theories have frequently been proposed. . . In my view, such more complicated systems and their combinations should be considered only if there exist physical-empirical reasons to do so.
... Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler. (Albert Einstein, attributed)
(Leonardo da Vinci)
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
A Very Brief Introduction to 'What is the Most Simple Science Theory of Reality?'
This is a very short answer to a very important and strangely neglected question. If you read more on the Wave Structure of Matter you can confirm these things for yourselves.
Upon consideration it is clear that Reality must be founded on One thing. (Both in terms of Ockham's razor, the simplest theory that explains the most things is best - and in terms of metaphysics where One thing is required to Cause and Connect the Many things we experience.)
And there is only ONE thing that is common to the many things, SPACE. (We all commonly experience one common Space. And both Matter and Mind are many things.)
So how can we explain Time, Matter, and Forces (Fields / Necessary Interconnection of Matter) from ONE thing Space. It is simple and obvious once known.
Space exists as a wave medium for Spherical Standing Waves that form matter. This Metaphysics of Space and (wave) Motion and the Wave Structure of Matter is explained below.
Truth and Reality are important (as is a simple sensible Science Theory to describe this Reality) - so please take the time to read on these beautiful and profound subjects about our own existence.

PS - I will be re-writing this page (it is still a rough draft) - hopefully to be completed in January 2007. It is also interesting to read the Philosophy of Mind page, as it is obvious that physical reality (e.g. the earth orbiting the sun) must have first existed for human ancestors to exist and eventually evolve us and our human minds. i.e. Evolution directly contradicts Idealism (all is mind).
