| I strongly suspect it is because you do not understand it - nothing you
have
| written shows you have more than a pop sci acquaintance with physical
| concepts nor a desire to move beyond that.
Your bigoted opinion Bill.{:-)
| For example what is the
| generalization of the Newtonian potential in GR?
A momentum 4-vector. Is that the reply you were looking for ?
| And if you can not answer
| such basic questions why do you think you can form a valid view?
Clearly I must be answering your questions incorrectly from your pov for you
to feel I have no valid point of view. Your a bit bigoted don't you think
Bill ? Try answering some of my question without resorting to insults,
bigotry or clichés and we might start to communicate in a relevant to the
physics of relativity way.
| But having
| engaged you many times it is obvious understanding physics is not your
real
| aim - it is to be an armchair philosopher who likes to believe his
tortured
| semantics has value - it does not.
Its a shame that at your age you have not yet learned that the meaning of
words is very pertinent to the understanding of something.
| And the reason you do not post on a
| philosophy forum is that they are likely to tell you in no uncertian terms
| your ideas do not float.
I doubt that they would understand or be prepared to understand the physics
of my philosophy as they just enjoy hand waving and the introduction of
physical reality is a disruptive inconvenience, a bit similar to how you
respond to my posts, so to jump into forum of Bill Hobbas would be a bit
like
jumping into a snake pit and even if I could be sure of surviving the bites
it
might be a bit unpleasant and unproductive. You will do for the time being
Bill {:-)
| By posting here you can claim physicisits have got
| it wrong at the base and you have seen a higher truth.
Lower truth Bill, lower {:-) also smaller perhaps, maybe, I wonder.

Maybe updates. (1-(1/(1/3))^2)/(1 + (1/(1/3))^2) = - 0.08 = FTL ? -p<+p or
(m*-v)<(m*+v) or (m*-c^2)<(m*+c^2) =g?
