You do not deny the results of SR Math.

O'Barr comments:
That is right. Are you praising or complaining?

Neither. Just observing the fact. From your attitude toward SR, it would
seem that there MUST be something wrong with the math.

You are NOT showing scientific impartiality.

O'Barr comments:
I am certainly against SR interpretations.
And I assure you I am
correct in this position.

Such a level of self assurance is not the mark of a scientist. It is the
mark of a priest that has unconditional faith in his religion and believes
every one who is not saved by reading HIS version of 'the book' is going to
hell.

Do you not see that 'your faith' makes it impossible for anyone to discuss
anything scientific with you?

You can not even let yourself hear anything that might shake your faith.

The words do not get past the censors in your brain.
People tell you things and you do not see the things they tell you.

SR is not physically
possible, and only LET can provide to us a correct
physical understanding of our reality.

Such a level of surity shows that you are NOT scientific.

A scientist is always looking for ways to DISPROVE his favorite theory. It
is by disproving the theory that he can learn.

You seek to disprove ONLY the OTHER theories.
That is not the mark of a true scientist.

You have never tried to wrap your mind around the idea that even the idea
that 1 inch + 1 inch = 2 inches requires that you make many assumptions.
Assumptions that may well not be true but that we AGREE to make,
provisionally, until some way to test those assumptions comes along. At
that point, the scientist is ready (given sufficient evidence) to discard
those assumptions.

You cling to them as the priest clings to his worry beads. 'Not physically
possible', 'Physical understanding of our reality.' Those are your worry
beads and you will not even put them down long enough to consider the
possibility that the math of SR/GR is BETTER than a physical model that
rests [hidden at the bottom of the physical model] upon more fantastic
assumptions than the math rests upon. Perhaps it IS turtles, all the way
down, perhaps not, we will probably never know what the great turtle stands
upon, and it is not something we can study through science.
