Let's get back to real /sci/

Why are half these threads about existent/non existent God/Gilgamesh, "omg divide by 0", ".999... =/= 1", racism, and ID/evolution?  Props to the real math threads every once in a while.

Let's get back to real /sci/.

Poll:  Given that quantum mechanics and general relativity are mutually exclusive, which one is right?

QM/QED/Standard model?
GR?
Neither?
String theory?
Something else?

I totally agree with this guy.
It's not a matter of opinion.

Neither cover all fields of reality so going about on one alone would result in a warped, incomplete perception of reality.
More precisely, neither makes correct predictions at the high-speed quantum level. It's not about "perceptions of reality", it just doesn't work; we don't observe what either theory says we should.

In my opinion however, cosmogony (albeit largely undefined) should cover the gaps left by the ones you listed. Thus bestowing man with a more complete view of reality.
Right now cosmogony is pseudoscience and philosophy. When a consistent theory of quantum gravity comes around, these are the people who will jump at it and claim it proves all their crackpot theories.

They already are in a sense that you never consider both at the same time.
What? That's nonsense. OP was correct. We don't choose not to consider both. We WANT to be able to consider both at the same time, but we can't combine them. You get equations that don't make sense, like dividing by zero.
