I am sure, in the end, it will need work ... well .. more work because it has already had one major and several minor overhauls. The current version, M Theory, has promise and is the obvious best thing going right now.

I disagree with it wherever it is referred to as a "T.O.E.," or "Theory of Everything."

Referring to it as a theory of everything is misleading, as it does not account for literally everything, and instead seeks to remedy the anomalies between quantum mechanics and cosmology.

As for the actual superstring theory, or M Theory, I don't have enough knowledge of physics to make an educated judgment. I have tried to become educated in more lay understandings of it, and so far, my feelings about it are mixed. As it stands, string theory is hypothesis rather than theory from a physics, i.e., scientific, perspective. There needs to be experimental designs that can demonstrate the validity of the theory (hypothesis) for it to have real weight in the greater scientific community.

That being said, my instincts, which could be wrong, is that it is wrong but right-headed. It seems to me a theory of connection but one of physical connection, leaving out emotional connection, a wholly different kind of connection, which means that string theory does NOT account for everything as it sometimes is thought to do.

I can understand some of it, and it seems pretty sensible. I'll continue to wait until they prove it though since it is still just a theory, and I don't jump on theories as fact until they are proven.

Well its nice and all, but it has never been tested. plus its all based on quantum mechainics which in my opion has its own problems
