A theory for a FIFTH dimension .

In summary, the conversation discusses the possibility of matter being a fifth dimension, in addition to the commonly known dimensions of time and space. The original poster, a 16-year-old, shares their theory that matter is the fifth dimension and provides an argument to support it. However, other users point out flaws in the theory and explain that mass does not fit the definition of a dimension. One user mentions that historically, mass has been considered a fundamental quantity alongside time and space. Overall, while the idea is not entirely unfounded, it is not widely accepted and does not fit the definition of a dimension.

Firstly, that was an utterly pointless post. Secondly, bluntly labelling the theory as "Nonsense" without argument is not necessary and shows ignorance. I know the theory is debateable and unlikely but please contribute to the debate before criticism.
Thanks. (sigh)

Does anyone else have anything to add to this discussion? I would very much like to see anybody's views on the topic.

You have dissapointed me Mr Steinitz - I thought you were above insolence and stupidity. I am sure you can come up with a cleverer and more relevant remark that that. Good day.

You are a pathetic individual. You have patronized me for no good reason and you have made a mockery of me. You belong in the gutters for this atrocity. May you be stung by a thousand tempestuous scorpions, you amalgamation of loathsome repulsiveness. May you also be chased across the desert by sex-starved camels, you whose word is worthless I hope, pray and dream that you shall be dragged through the disease-ridden medieval sty by a demented pig, you grudge-festering scar on the face of beauty.

I wonder how many hours you had to spend with a thesaurus to write that stupid reply.
