Mike people have tried to explain why your wrong to you, but you don't
seem to listen so believe what-ever the hell you want.


Most people have said "The Speed of Light is Constant!" and thought
that was it.

I'm starting to hear that overtone that "Jesus loves me!" does.

But to each his own.

Someone made an excellent point, that if very old light was slower
than new light, we would see them drop away from the edge of the moon
in delays according to distance.

That was an excellent criticism.

However, he is assuming that despite speed of light changing, that the
old light would travel through the same world lines through warped
spacetime that new light would.

In other words, the effects of gravity on old light would be the same
on new light.

But that can't possibly be right.

Most of the old light would we would expect coming around the edge of
the moon, would not make it around the edge and instead crash right
into the moon because its reduced velocity would provide less
resistance against the effects of gravity.
