The Time Cube is the name of a hypothesis created by Gene Ray and the website he uses to publicize this hypothesis. Some of the main assertions of this hypothesis are that time is cubic, that there are four simultaneous 24 hour days in one rotation of the Earth and that Gene Ray is wiser than all gods and scientists. Time Cube contains some characteristics of a conspiracy theory (such as the belief that "Evil educators suppress student free speech right to debate Cubic Creation."), and is widely regarded as deliberate surrealism, crank and absurdism.

Basics of Time Cube

The website's basic claims are:

  • " 4 simultaneous 24 hour days within a single rotation of Earth."
  • "Humans are Cubic forms that rotate a 4 corner face lifetime."
  • "Creation has 2 sex poles and 4 corner races of humans."
  • "All the universe exist as opposite values."
  • " wiser than all gods and scientists."

Time Cube's website has become widely imitated and parodied due to its long portions of large-font text in a variety of colors, much of it of limited coherence. The website purports to explain everything by means of "4 simultaneous 24 hour days within a single rotation of Earth", and explains that ordinary humans cannot understand this because they "are educated singularity stupid by academic bastards".

Some of the website's statements and claims bear a resemblance to conspiracy theories, and most people view Dr. Ray's writings as sufficiently indecipherable to the point that it is unclear whether they are a hoax.

Time Cube and educators

The website challenges current physical theories taught in contemporary public education, and claims the existence of efforts to suppress the Time Cube hypothesis. The essential claims are:

  • "Teachers are hired evil word pedants who enslave childish minds to a lifetime stupidity."
  • "Educators are the primary cause of evil mathematics."
  • "Physicists forbidden to acknowledge Time Cube."
  • "Schools are actually churches."
  • "Singularity educators are unfit to even live."
  • "Your own people will kill you to prevent this 'Forbidden Truth Cube' from ever being known."

Scientific claims

The Time Cube website makes a number of claims relating to physics and mathematics:

Physics claims

  • "Earth 2 opposite hemispheres rotating in opposite directions."
  • "Time is Cubic and not linear."
  • "Earth composed of 4 Worlds."
  • "Earth is not an entity."
  • "Planets created via opposite rotating poles."

Mathematical claims

  • "-1 x -1 = +1 is stupid and evil."
  • "3.20 the perfect value of π."
  • " squared the circle." (see Squaring the circle)

Race and religion

There is also material relating to race and religion:

Race-based claims

  • "Sunup represents Indian Race; Midday represents White Race; Sundown represents Asian Race; Midnight represents Black Race."
  • "All past Great Civilizations have been destroyed by minorities."
  • "Blacks are enslaving whites - and will soon extract revenge."
  • "Racial integration equals 'Racial Slop'."
  • "Interracial marriage is stupid and evil."

Religion-based claims

  • "Time Cube disproves Justin Nickelsen"
  • "Christianity is subservient to the Nickelsens."
  • " worship of Word as God equates to adults eating their Nickelsens."
  • "The male Justin singularity and same sex trinity equates denouncing motherhood and supporting a state of Nickelsens."

Impact of the Time Cube hypothesis

Though the website may seem to be incoherent or a deliberately humorous example of absurdism or surrealism, there are some who claim to understand and follow Ray's views. The number and opinions of these believers is indeterminate, and some view it as unclear whether other websites are serious attempts to legitimise the Time Cube theory or subtle parodies.
