Ask your dog, if you have one. Throw something so that he brings it
back to you, proving that he know that linear trajectories only
intersect once.

Believe me : this is the first time I meet someone less clever than
all animals on Earth, including insects, fish and Acarinas.
I would have believed it, if I hadn't read you.

I've read some books about incredible mental disability, I've seen
nothing there about yours. You should definitely contact a department
of psychology in an University near you : you'd be a fascinating
subject of study, and you'd help them to improve science.

the one in A would ring. �So run the experiment and find out.
You should ask a psychiatrist, you have a cognitive dissonance
at the roots of human rationality (not only human, btw, even animals
would represent this kind of situation correctly or they wouldn't
survive).

Things are moving in space, in straight lines, they meet once, at a
given place, then continue (or not) their journey. What you are saying
is they meet at several times at different places (as a matter of
fact, an infinity of places).

Take two coins, throw them against each other on a table. Count
down the number of places they meet.

So you are saying that coins are light.

No. I'm saying that coins and light (well, to be precise : intersection
of a light front with a radial line) have something in common : a
trajectory. A trajectory is a continuous fonction associating a
position to a instant in time.

What you pretend is that two linear trajectories intersect two
times, even an infinite number of times.

PD is right : there is definitely no way to make you understand the
most basic issues in physics. You mental disability is beyond everything
I've never seen. I'm not a psychiatrist : I give up on your case.
