Newton’s Perpetual Motion Machine

He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

(Hebrews 1:3) ESV

Every particle in the universe is emitting a stream of bosons all the time in proportion to its total energy, which takes energy, so why isn’t the universe cooling off and running out of energy?

If space, time, matter and energy cause gravity, and gravity is the reason for why space, time, matter and energy are related to each other, where does the energy come from to sustain this system?

Even if the bosons we absorb from all of the other particles in the universe are the ones which we re-emit, friction and entropy mean that this can’t be 100% efficient. Some energy is going to be lost. This is a self-evident truth: Newton/Einstein gravitation can’t account for loss of energy from the system, so it’s a perpetual motion machine which is energetically bankrupt.

If the creation of gravity was the creative act of the second day then Newton/Einstein gravitation is irrelevant. It’s an opportunistic rationalization of circumstantial evidence and it’s only predictive because it’s designed to summarize a broad class of observations, not because it reveals the underlying cause of gravity. This means that we’re not tied to Einstein’s concept of space-time as a way to talk about gravitation. We can talk about mass as being mass.

Mass isn’t the cause of gravity, but observing the proportional relationship between mass and gravity gives us a way to account for the behavior of gravity. This is as far as Newton got.

A particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

This is a general physical law derived from empirical observations by what Isaac Newton called induction.

– Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation

Surprise, surprise, it was induced. It’s ironic that we’ve used the Bible to deduce that Newtonian gravitation is induced. So let’s deduce the true nature of gravity.

For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,

(2 Corinthians 10:4-5) ESV

If SciPop is right, then gravity is a property of space-time. If SciPop is right, then a body exerts an attractive pull on other bodies because it’s emitting a stream of boson particles. The body is acted on by streams of bosons from other bodies. Where does this energy come from? If every particle in the universe has been emitting bosons for the whole of history, and will continue to do so for as long as the universe lasts, where does the energy come from?

It’s as if we have a bank account that we use to pay our rent and all our bills and the bank account always has money in it but we didn’t put it there. We can spend as much money as we want to but never have to put money in the account. It doesn’t make sense. Newton/Einstein gravitation is bankrupt. On the other hand, if gravity isn’t a property of space-time, but is described by the definition below how does this work?

Gravity (A) is a field emitted from a created instance (a singularity) which causes a body to have attractive force (p) proportional to its mass and inversely proportional to the square of its distance from the source (pG).

G is the gravitational constant. This is a general physical law derived from empirical observations by using deduction.

– Matty’s Law of Biblical Gravitation

Where is the energy coming from to do that? Hebrews 1:3 tells us that it’s the power of God. We have a God who claims to be able to do this and the evidence is very clear: it’s being done. SciPop, on the other hand, is still fumbling around in the dark quibbling over irrelevant minutiae in order to validate the Star Trek universe.
