Infinity, Sets, and Causality

Hi,

Yes, but as space-time is depicted as planar

Not by any informed person since 1916.

it must have a direction to wrinkle in.

If you are familiar with the concept of a metric, then you should be able to rebut your own argument. If you are not, then you don't know what you are saying.

Also, wormholes are like tesseracts, in that they pierce through space-time.

Tesseracts don't 'pierce' through anything. They are simply the extension to four dimensions of the square (2D) and the cube (3D). And a better analogy to wormholes is the handle in a coffee cup (or, equivalently, the hole in a donut), which pierces a three dimensional object and does it *in* 3 dimensions.

Hence, another direction at right angles to space-time.

Bull.

Yes, the rest are highly theoretical, and/or fantastical, but there is at least a great number of reports for them, are there not?

There are a few speculations for some of them, most largely discredited.

And, there has yet to be any serious inspection into whether or not they do in fact exist.

Since there is no way that those speculations can be studied or tested in the first place, it is little wonder that no one has studied them.

Also, it wasn't meant to be as serious as you're making it out to be. Just to start those brain cells rubbing and sparking together.

Nonsense does not spark useful thinking. You might as well have quoted Jabberwocky. Indeed, it would have been better in that Carroll's nonsense is at least amusing.
