Is opposition to Einstein from fundies?
It seems that every 2nd post in these froups is from people who are
judging Einstein to be some kind of dupliticitous Jew who pulled the wool over the scientific world's eyes, and who still does so. These few posters, with no certification to their names have uncovered this vast plot and post their "refutations" here. I can't understand what all the hoopla is about. Recently, Conservapedia had a huge barney over it, and, from what I can gather it was based on Andy Schlafly (Roger Ramjet's) sudden insight that AE's Relativity might mean some kind of moral relativity. Is this the view of dissenter's here? There DOES seem to be the notion that God must know when everything happened and how much everything weighs, and so SR and GR cannot be right. Is this the elephant in the room in these debates? That opposition to these theories is coming from Young Earth Creationists who are not being honest as to the REAL reason as to why they are in such vitriolic disagreement with AE, and the rest of the informed world as to his theories? Because from what I read, they certainly SOUND like they are from Conservapedia, with the "hahaha hah aha that's one up for us" type of juvenile belligerence that seems compulsory here.

Your observations are totally biased because of your faith in worshipping Einstein the nitwit, the plagiarist, and the liar as a god. As you see. Einstein the nitwit, the plagiarist, and the liar was nothing but a nitwit, a plagiarist, and a liar. There is no hatred or anti-science about it. He was merely stating the fact. shrug I can't understand what all the hoopla is about. Recently, Conservapedia had a huge barney over it, and, from what I can gather it was based on Andy Schlafly (Roger Ramjet's) sudden insight that AE's Relativity might mean some kind of moral relativity. Is this the view of dissenter's here? Your zealous worship of Einstein the nitwit, the plagiarist, and the liar as a god is clouding your observations. This is about the truth in science not some mathematical inconsistencies known as SR and GR. shrug There DOES seem to be the notion that God must know when everything happened and how much everything weighs, and so SR and GR cannot be right. Is this the elephant in the room in these debates? That opposition to these theories is coming from Young Earth Creationists who are not being honest as to the REAL reason as to why they are in such vitriolic disagreement with AE, and the rest of the informed world as to his theories? You are totally lost. The discussions are about the fallacies and mathematical inconsistencies of SR and GR in which there are boat loads. shrug Because from what I read, they certainly SOUND like they are from Conservapedia, with the "hahaha hah aha that's one up for us" type of juvenile belligerence that seems compulsory here. It looks like someone needs to watch the Relativity Play. http://groups.google.com/group/sci.m...a0f3c305008773 And be more informed about these so-called resolutions to these the Twins’ paradox. http://groups.google.com/group/sci.p...bc93ca08?hl=en For the ones winning to take on extra credits, the thread below show how Einstein Dingleberries are caught applying two equations contradictory in conclusion to resolve the simple Doppler effect under SR. http://groups.google.com/group/sci.p...dd12621209448d The following is exactly what the self-styled physicists are preaching in the past one hundred years. ** FAITH IS THEORY ** LYING IS TEACHING ** NITWIT IS GENIUS ** OCCULT IS SCIENCE ** PARADOX IS KOSHER ** FUDGING IS DERIVATION ** BULL**** IS TRUTH ** BELIEVING IS LEARNING ** MYSTICISM IS WISDOM ** IGNORANCE IS KNOWLEDGE ** CONJECTURE IS REALITY ** PLAGIARISM IS CREATIVITY ** MATHEMAGICS IS MATHEMATICS shrug |

These few posters, with no certification to their names have uncovered this vast plot and post their "refutations" here. It is easier answered with "Asperger's syndrome". They get a wrong notion early on, and devote their lives to bulwarking both their misunderstanding, and their attack on their misunderstanding. You are painting "fundies" with the wrong brush. Most fundies have no problem with Jews, since they believe the Jews are God's chosen people, and Jesus (via Paul) let them in the clique too. (Having heard all this from my father...) The ones that have problems with Jews has a different name. "Fundies" are usually "Fundamental Christians". I can't understand what all the hoopla is about. Recently, Conservapedia had a huge barney over it, and, from what I can gather it was based on *Andy Schlafly (Roger Ramjet's) sudden insight that AE's Relativity might mean some kind of moral relativity. Is this the view of dissenter's here? 1 out of 8 maybe. Most "dissenters" cannot avoid frame jumps if their lives depended on it, and the balance simply can't believe their teachers might have tought them something that was known to be wrong (Newton) however useful it might otherwise be. There DOES seem to be the notion that God must know when everything happened and how much everything weighs, and so SR and GR cannot be right. They are NOT right in the biblical sense. They are however "Caeser's coin", of and about the "house on sand", and that they do really well. Is this the elephant in the room in these debates?

It is endemic to the human race, I am afraid. I kept arguing with George Dishman on sci.astro that we needed to get to space, that we needed a frontier. And he said no, we needed to stay here, essentially to keep our various mental illnesses confined. It galls me that he was right. Myles (Back to the flat world for some...) Paulsen David A. Smith |

Is this the view of dissenter's here? No....our objection You means YOUR .. you only speak for your own particular brand of crackpottery .. other crackpots have other views and reasons. to SR are as follows: 1. Two clocks in relative motion and between meetings the clock that accumulated less clock seconds can claim the clock that accumulated more clock seconds as running slow. No .. SR doesn't let you claim that. It DOES let you claim that the clock would be measured as running slower for PART of the trip .. but the parts where it runs faster (ie sync changes) have a greater effect. 2. SR claims: An 80 ft. pole can fit into a 40 ft. barn with both doors close simultaneously..... No .. SR claims a less-than-80 ft pole fits in there. That the pole is 80ft long in some other frame of reference is irrelevant to whether or not it fits in the barn. SR also claims: an 80 ft pole cannot fit into a 40 ft barn with borh doors close simultaneously. Of course it can't 3. In the bug and the rivet paradox....the bug dies twice--before and after the head of the rivet hits the wall of the hole. No .. SR claims it dies only once 4. The meter length is redefined to be 1/299,792,458 light- second...this redefinition of the meter is designed to make the SR postulate to be true in all frames of reference. It is not a re-definition. It is THE definition. That is not an objection to SR .. SR doesn't determine units of measure .. that's done by standards bodies. 5. The SR concept of relativity of simultaneity asserts that the speed of light is anisotropic in the observed M' frame whereas the SR postulate asserts that the speed of light is isotropic in all frames. Wrong 6. Even though SR posits that the one-way speed of light is a universal constant...Physicists refuse to measure the one-way speed of light directly using two e-synched clocks. Clocks that are e-synched BY DEFINITION measure the one-way speed as isotropic. So there is no point in measuring the one way speed when it MUST be the same as the two way speed, and the two way speed is easier to measure. That said, there still have been one way light speed measurements. Well.. that's all you objections dismissed. Guess you're an SR believer now? Or are you too dishonest to do that? |

Is this the view of dissenter's here? Yes, this is the view of some of the cranks here. They feel that Einstein started "moral relativity". However, they never tell us what where the phrase "moral relativism" came from, or what Einstein had to do with it. I am surprised -Not- that they don't have Read the book "Relativity- A Richer Truth" by Phillipp Frank (1950). It is a philosophical book on the relationship between science and ethics. It has a preface by Albert Einstein. The book relates how Frank regards the scientific method with regard to ethics. He comes to some conclusions which seem reasonable and interesting. However, the foreword was written by Einstein. This preface is interesting in itself, because it actually describes where Einstein stood on the issues of ethics. BTW: He was for ethics. Albert Einstein in the foreword writes, "For pure logic all axioms are arbitrary, including the axioms of ethics. But they are no means arbitrary from the psychological and genetic view. They are derived from our inborn tendencies to avoid pain and annihilation, and from the accumulated emotional reaction of individuals to the behavior of their neighbors. It is the privilege of man's moral genius, expressed by inspired individuals, to advance ethical axioms which are so comprehensive that men will accept them as grounded in the vast mass of their individual emotional experiences. Ethical axioms are found and tested not very differently from the axioms of science. Die Wahrheit liegt in der Bewahrung. Truth is what stands the test of experience." I don't know if any of the antiscience people have seen this. However, I offer it to them. If you think that Einstein promoted an amoral philosophy, read this preface. If they want to disagree with Einstein's moral philosophy, then I suggest that they read some of it. I myself see Einstein as being a bit naive with regards to ethics. Many people seek pain and annihilation. If not for themselves, they seek it for others. Maybe this is the "moral relativism" that "antirelativists" don't like. " There DOES seem to be the notion that God must know when everything happened and how much everything weighs, and so SR and GR cannot be right. Is this the elephant in the room in these debates? That opposition to these theories is coming from Young Earth Creationists who are not being honest as to the REAL reason as to why they are in such vitriolic disagreement with AE, and the rest of the informed world as to his theories? A lot of Young Earth Creationists believe this. While relativity has nothing per se to do with age of the universe, it is used to extrapolate current conditions in the universe to a time billions of years ago. Therefore, it has come to be associated with Deep Time. It isn't that the theory itself uses the hypothesis of Deep Time. The Creation of the universe could have been 6 KYA and most of relativity could still be true. One would have to throw away that last chapter on cosmology, but that isn't the core of relativity. Just like one can believe that atoms decay at a fixed rate, and still believe the earth was created 6 KYA. However, the existence of such a model stimulates one to consider the existence of time before 6 KYA. It isn't the theory, it is the scientific methodology that they want to stamp out. Because from what I read, they certainly SOUND like they are from Conservapedia, with the "hahaha hah aha that's one up for us" type of juvenile belligerence that seems compulsory here. To be absolutely fair, antirelativity isn't strictly coming from the religious fanatics. I know some of the antirelativity cranks here. Some are atheists. At the very least, some are antiBible. Androcles, Hanson, Guth and Wilson are decidedly antiGenesis. They are fanatically antiJewish, both against the religion and against the nonexistent "race" that Jews are supposed to represent. I don't think you can possibly associate these four with Young Earth Creationism. A lot of Young Earth Creationists hate Einstein, too. I used to argue with Geocentrists, who believe that the earth is stationary. They were all Young Earth Creationists and religious fanatics. I remember Goldberg, Bouw and Marshall Hall. These people would probably kill each other if there weren't atheists to blame everything on. In short, I don't think it is religion or even Young Earth Creationism which is the blame for this antirelativity. I don't think it is antirelativity so much as antiscience. Or amybe it isn't so much antiscience as antithought. Myles (Back to the flat world for some...) Paulsen If you really believe Genesis word for word, that is the way it has to be !-) |

But not all of the crackpots are anti-Jewish, some are just genuinely confused about Relativity -- can't quite wrap their minds around it. It's understandable, since the stuff Relativity deals with so far outside daily physics. All of the crackpots just gathered together to form a mutual admiration society, except in the end they really have totally different theories they are expounding and may not agree with each other at all. For example, I myself think Relativity is wrong, but I don't think it's completely wrong. I just think it hasn't gone nearly far enough. The observation of Dark Matter and Dark Energy are fixing up major flaws in Relativity, putting bandages on a theory that never predicted these things. It shouldn't be really surprising that Relativity doesn't take Dark Stuff into account as galaxies were only discovered *after* Einstein finished his work. Yousuf Khan |
