Worldviews
Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr. reminded us that we are not forged in a vacuum. We are born into a family with a family view, and into a society with a societal view. Long before we can choose our own beliefs, we inherit them. Our traditions, our education, and our early experiences shape how the world first makes sense to us. In this very real way, we are products of our upbringing.

Does time travel exist?
- Our understanding of physics says "no."
- You must continue to move forward in time.
Time
Relativity changed how we understand time, but it didn’t erase cause and effect. While clocks can tick differently and the future can be reached faster under extreme conditions, the past remains fixed. So far, evidence only supports a one-way universe.
Metaphysics
What ultimately is.
Structured Ontology
TST Metaphysics examines the fundamental structure of reality — matter, energy, space, time, causation, and possibility. It asks not only what exists, but how existence is organized and constrained. Grounded in science yet aware of conceptual limits, TST Metaphysics avoids both naive materialism and untethered speculation. It explores being as structured, layered, and partially knowable through disciplined models.
