If something is next to something without extension that itself has no extension, it never manages to actually be SPACE. Instead it is the juxtaposition of non extended singularities, manufactured into a matrix in whose connection singularities are impossible. It makes no sense to me how space can be the juxtaposition of non extended and non extendable single locales who generate a system of ways of articulating spacial relations of all objects made up of material.
How can material be made of nothing more than frequency of strings working harmoniously. It makes no sense quantum Mechanics...it must be wrong as a model goes, even though it's models are enormously precise in some of their predictions.
IF I am wrong and it is correct can anyone please explain to me how something non extended can be next to something else non extended to between the two of them form a displacement? It's impossible right? So please explaing Quantum Mechanics to me then.
The statement that ``strings are discrete bundles of energy vibrations that emerge from singularities'' is incorrect, that's all.
But I have heard that the quantum field, is composed of strings that vibrate from a center that is non extended. Please explain further Stam. What is the proper way to envision the model if what I have heard is incorrect.
There isn't any such thing as ``the quantum field''. And the strings, that are used in string theory, do not vibrate from any center.
OK Stam....I am curious can you point me to a video presentation that outlines the quantum mechanics notion of strings on say youtube that is accurate, because I have seen representations that speak of non extended points in a field where quantum stings vibrate to create matter.
The land must know its heroes. Who do not you say told that?
Google the phrase 'not even wrong' to get better understanding.
I use quantum mechanics but I have only very general impression on string theory. It is something about replacing point-like objects with lines in extra dimensions to remove some divergences. Untestable. High level fantasy. And a food for the journalism that is so good.
Why journalism is so good?
Thank you Igor and Stam for your responses and anyone else that might add to the conversation as well. I appreciate your input.

may be useful. Technical subjects are learned not by non-technical discussions, but by technical study. Cf. also http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/physics/8-251-string-theory-for-undergraduates-spring-2007/
String theory doesn't have anything to do with ``removing divergences''-this expression is meaningless. Science and history of science are distinct subjects that shouldn't be mixed up.
Thanks so much Stam. I appreciate your efforts to help me understand the issue very much, I am checking the material out now.
