Learning Paths

Choose by difficulty level or by topic. Each path builds concepts sequentially.

The two groupings are not equivalent (corrected 2026-08-05 — this page previously promised they “cover the same pages,” which its own link lists contradict). The difficulty paths reach 10 pages no topic track does — including Parameter Derivations, Born Rule, Compression & Action and CDM Discrimination — and the topic tracks reach 14 the difficulty paths don't. Advanced is the only path that covers the derivation chain; topic tracks are entry points, not complete coverage. Separately, none of the eight paths currently include an interactive tool — if you want the equation explained rather than stated, start at Equation Anatomy.

By Difficulty

Beginner6 steps · ~45 min on the short route (step 5's summary box, glossary as reference); ~2 h 40 m reading every page in full

No physics background needed. Plain language, core concepts only. Step 5 (Honest Assessment) is the site's long audit page — on this path, read its "If you read nothing else" box and move on; the full 80-minute read is for when you want the evidence rather than the verdict.

  1. 1Why Synchronism?· ~8 min
  2. 2First Encounter· ~10 min
  3. 3The Core Idea· ~12 min
  4. 4What Synchronism Is Not· ~9 min
  5. 5Honest Assessment· ~4 min: the "If you read nothing else" box (the stop on this path); full page ~18,000 words, ~80 min, optional
  6. 6Glossary· reference: look terms up as needed (~50 min to read in full)

Try it hands-on (optional, not a path step): Coherence Explorer (drag the sliders, watch C change) and Galaxy Curve Plotter (see the dark-matter problem on real galaxies).
