Hi Aleksandar-

 A couple questions on your work you posted here.

1) You say - matter is the union of points in space. Can I select
points arbitrarily? This applies for example to the union of points in
a cubic centimeter between galaxies.. a location not likely to contain
matter in the usual sense. Also, is a photon matter? Is an electric
field matter? (same question really)

2) You say - Space and time cannot be changed or affected by the state
of matter.

  But aren't space and time tools which are used by us (material
beings) to describe other material objects and relations thereof?
Space and time are inherently defined in terms of matter.. even before
GR. To divorce the two is to abandon any reasonable definition of
space and time at all.

3) I didn't see any reference to quantification of inertia. Why is a
bowling ball harder to accelerate than a golf ball? More field lines?
But there are actually the same number of field lines attached to both
- aleph 1.
