Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen,
As I said at the start of this thread I would like to post the bare bones of a philosophical theory, which hopes to illustrate why there is matter in the Universe. Matter as opposed to complete nothingness.
I have called it The Chelmsford Theory, after the town in which I live.
In deference to the Bad Astronomer and rules of the forum, and under advice from other members, I have decide to post the Theory on another site with links for you to gain access.
The reason for this is that there is some reference to religion in the Theory, which is banned on the Bad Astronomy site.
Please DO NOT access these links if you are a deeply religious person.
My first posting is just a single page Preface to the Theory, which I put before you partly to test the links(!) just to start with. The rest will follow in a few days. A Second Preface, and the Theory in two parts.
The First Preface raises a topic which I think was discussed a lot in the 19th Century, so it's possibly a bit old, but I don't know if any conclusion was reached. Certainly it provoked a negative reaction on a religious site where it was previously posted.
As I am the worst computer user in the world (I can't even figure out how to use my disc drive) this may not work very well, so I include two links. The first is the message board site. Go to 'Listings' then 'Education' (
) then scroll down to the bottom, 'The Chelmsfordites.'

The link which should take you straight there is this collection of digits;

For some reason I can't quite finish the page, so it tails off a bit. I suspect the site are economical with the words that can be written down ( I haven't studied the instructions too closely, but will) so I may need a few more postings.
All comments, no matter how scathing, will be welcome. Don't forget to post comments pertaining to religion over there and not down here.
With thanks to the Bad Astronomer.
