Debates over climate change, genome editing, and... Einstein'srelativity in 2017

"Debates over climate change and genome editing present the need for researchers to venture beyond their comfort zones to engage with citizens — and they should receive credit for doing so." http://www.nature.com/news/why-resea...n-2017-1.21236

In my comments in Nature I added Einstein's relativity. The doublethink in Einstein's schizophrenic world has become unbearable. Nowadays it is almost universally accepted that spacetime is a wrong concept that should be "retired", but, knowing that the end of Einstein's relativity would mark the end of physics as a whole, scientists continue to worship spacetime's underlying premise, Einstein's 1905 false constant-speed-of-light postulate.

"A recent survey shows that physicists disagree over the picture of reality that quantum mechanics describes – and that many of them don’t even care. [...] The number of diverging ideas suggests that maybe all of them are off the mark, says Sabine Hossenfelder of Germany's Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies. "There doesn't seem to be two people who can come to any agreement on anything," she says. "It seems to me that they're just discussing the wrong things or in the wrong way." https://www.newscientist.com/article...ld-looks-like/

At least quantum mechanics uses the correct Newtonian (absolute) time - there can be nothing more idiotic than Einstein's relative time, the malignant consequence of Einstein's 1905 false constant-speed-of-light postulate.
