Plenty of cults exist - every cult has its 'religious dogma', its idols, its 'prophets', its 'science', its 'proof' and its intolerant liturgy of demands. Cults everywhere: Corona, 'The Science' or Scientism, Islam, the State, the cult of Gender Fascism, Marxism, Darwin and Evolution, Globaloneywarming, Changing Climate, Abortion...
Tempus Fugit Memento Mori - Time Flies Remember Death
Relativity was concocted to defend Copernicanism and the theory that the Earth is moving, gyrating, disco-dancing 585 million miles around the Sun, each year. It might be. But the mechancial proof for the Barber of Seville routine in space is very, very thin to non-existent.
Einstein, the great philosophical comedian and artificer, along with many others from the cult of mathematics, concocted the endless abstract inanity of Relativity to deny Michelson-Morley’s 1887 proof from light interference experiments, that no movement of this planet can be found, but an aether wind detected.
STR is false given it does not include gravity, nor an aether. Gravity exists. So does the aether. STR was created to avoid the implications of light experiments which found an aether but no movement of this planet. GTR tried to amend STR by adding in both gravity and a ‘not ponderable’ aether. GTR therefore nullifies STR. GTR is based on circular maths and tautological ‘reasoning’ and explains nothing because it means nothing. The tensor calculus field equations are invalid. When used in reality they derive nothing.
Einstein admitted there is no relationship between maths and reality. The two are distinct. My lying eyes tell me that the train crashed into the mountain. Not so says the Einstotle, ‘It is also true to say dat dee mountain crashed into dee train’ he assures me. ‘Relativity’, he condescendingly informs me, smiling, ‘has proven it my little mensche’. The polite and right response is to break out the white strait-jacket, apply it to the Einstotle, and quietly usher him into a small room in a pleasantly located sanitorium and lock the door.
....Einstein ingested Lorentz whole except for the bones and joints around the aether and the implied kinetic energy of ‘space’. He removed these and refined the equations around moving objects with no absolutes. It was one thing to say that ‘rods shrank’ (or material pace Fitzgerald) as they moved through the aether with the Earth, even at the reasonably slow pace of 30 km / second. However, to be consistent, Lorentz understood that clocks running through the aether must also be affected and must therefore ‘tick’ more slowly by the same factor that made the rods shrink.
When Relativity was first proposed in 1905, almost immediately, many perceptive scientists and mathematicians noticed the tautological nature of Einstein’s calculus. The equations themselves are circular and of little value. It is not hard to spot and is explained below. As part of the author’s quotidian existence he is involved with tensor calculus equations deployed in data analysis. He knows full well that you can create complex tensor and field equations that no one understands, to generate a desired output, or parse the data in a certain desired manner. This is often done to prove an apriori or confirmation bias.
A few posts have assessed the tautology of the transformation equations which is the foundation of Relativity. The Einstotle’s philosophy that everything, time and space, all objects, all grids, all motion, all aspects of life is ‘Relative’, was based on flawed maths which are called, ‘Einstein Field Equations’. As you would expect these are canonical ‘laws’ within ‘science’ and ‘education’. Memorise, regurgitate, repeat.
The cornerstone of General Relativity or ‘GTR’ is the Einstein field equations (EFE), which describes the unproven and frankly ridiculous curvature of spacetime in relation to the distribution of mass and energy within it. More here
Einstein and his gravitational ‘theorem’ do not explain anything. For Relativists, gravity is a wave oscillation found within the non-existent (unproven) ‘continous field’ of a merged space-time curvature. This theory has never explained why you are glued to your chair and not floating off somewhere.
Pace ‘The Science’, there are 3 ‘claims’ which ‘prove’ Relativity.
1. Bending of starlight around the Sun (absurd, this was known to medieval natural philosophers). See below.
2. Connected to #1, ‘gravitational redshifts’, sometimes called ‘gravitational lensing’. Redshifts are discussed on this substack, given they actually disprove Relativity. There is no factual evidence that a ‘redshift’ means a recessionary movement nor long ages.
3. Mercury’s perihelion (easily explained by both Newtonian maths (Gerber 1887) and the cosmic aether.
Let’s focus on #1 – the ‘bending of starlight’.
