Supercausality
Partner artilce to
original research amalgamation. In particular, the energy equation quoted is a pretty famous result from special relativity and certainly has nothing to do with causality in its bald form. The term itself is not used, and even the reference to Einstein is inappropriate (since German words are not neologisms when they are squashed together: Einstein wasn't referring to a new concept, he was describing the forward arrow of time
when he used the term).

- Delete. Unsourced article presents itself as science, misrepresenting the information it throws out there. The energy equation is thrown in, creating the illusion of meaningful when it's actually irrelevant. Article is poorly written, violating rules regarding OR, neologisms, and probably POV. POV is invoked if this is simply an interpretation instead of deliberate misrepresentation. At best, the information that would remain after deleting the bogus part of its contents would barely merit a dictionary entry. ]
- Delete. Original research. Bogus science, with no reliable sourcing. -- SCZenz 07:12, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. This referencing of random unrelated sources along with a few unreliable sources is annoying, and seems to be happening with increasing frequency. But perhaps Retrocausality and Supercausality should have been listed together? --Philosophus T 07:30, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect/add brief sourced mention to Unified Field Theory[1]. Other biographers of Einstein also suggest that Einstein was referring to a new, but vaguely defined, concept[2][3] None of these sources treat Einstein's phrase as a just an ordinary "squashing together" of German words, nor does "the arrow of time" come up.
