I propose a thought experiment...

What if it isn't gravity that bends light but rather the fields that are coming from objects in space?
What is the field and how does it interact with the light?

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

Let's come about it from a slightly different angle. Your brain is capable of imagining all kinds of things. It can imagine things that are inconsistent with your constructed reality. For example, it can imagine what would happen if gravity simply stopped working. You can read a fictional story or ...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

Long responses are, in my opinion, nothing to apologize for. The more you describe your reality, the easier it is for me to understand it. I’ll respond fully tomorrow. But what gives me the biggest insight into your thinking is the first sentence of your response. Why can’t you see it any other way...

Re: Illegal aliens get congressional approval to vote in 2024 elections

Fraudulent voting happens in small amounts, regardless of the voting system chosen. How do you know what percentage of the votes are fraudulent? So it's illegal to question whether the vote is accurate but it's not illegal for a noncitizen to vote if he feels in his heart that he should be allowed ...

Re: Why are Humans living longer?

At speeds in the hundreds of mph, we're talking tiny fractions of seconds "gained." For example, if you take a 6 hour flight, going about 550 mph, you'd end up getting an additional 0.000001 seconds. If you flew around for an entire year at that speed, you'd still not gain a full second. At 25% of ...

I found a calculator. The relativistic time dilation for traveling for 90 years at 500 mph is .00000000254 years

Re: What is Gravity?

I offer this video as context for what both The Wicker Man/Davidic Servant and Valo are doing. It's old and the audio is a little difficult to hear at times. But I think it is well worth watching because it shows how ordinary what they are doing is. The spirit tells me that Valo will react by claimi...

Re: Why are Humans living longer?

After hearing a talk about the speed of light by Neil DeGrasse Tyson, watching Interstellar for the 12th time, and then skimming through the thread about gravity... I began wondering if maybe the reason we've been living longer as a species has at least something to do with the fact that we're trav...

Re: Numbers...

Yes, it is. I'll do it right here with your last post. My post didn't say anything about persuading me of anything. It says that, if I got it wrong, you should be able to easily to post an explanation of how I was wrong. Like I just did in this post with your last comment. Simply asserting "I didn'...
