The direction of the big bang

The crickets are deafening.

I'm inclined to think that you guys really did finally get through to him. He put up a valiant, stubborn fight, but as intelligent as the guy is and as much as he was exposed to, I think he finally broke through. I don't think he's strong enough to admit it, but who knows. Worse comes to worse, there will be more fun, retarded posts to enjoy so we win either way...

I have began to watch the Stanford lectures on youtube, so at least something good came out of it.

I'm use to 'em. They usually show up when I start asking the relativist questions. The problem with a classroom environment education is that it's generally a one-sided conversation. The "lecturer" doesn't have time for debate or classroom antics, they are there to force feed you...That is not a good learning environment.

Not likely. I'm smart enough to know that "some men you just can't reach."

I guess worse came to worse...

Wow, Seedling you know everything about everything! You just explained the process in every classroom ever, in one sentence! I can see why you take yourself so seriously!

It must be hard being alone at the top of the world.



There are two scenarios;

1) Seedling is a troll and he's not worth anyones time.
2) Seedling isn't a troll, and he's still not worth anyones time.

Take your pick.

We aren't in a classroom here yet you don't seem to be able to have a conversation with people here that are knowledgeable about physics. You avoid the tough questions and act as if repetition of your incorrect claims are somehow explanations of said claims. Your dodging of relevant points are quite prevalent. Your belief that the principle of relativity began with Einstein and is something he introduced to physics is has clearly caused you confusion yet you have never addressed the fact that velocities are only meaningful when described as relative to something else. Why do you even bother coming back here to make these trite comments if you can't even address these most basic issues? Quit trying to pass this off as if everyone else is misguided because (you assume) we all were spoon-fed this information and act as if we don't know any better and would not come to the same conclusion if we took a different approach. Your attempt to poison the well and imply incompetence of your opposition is not only fallacious and makes you contemptible.

You are worse than the religionists that target evolution and claim that it's not science and only accepted because it allows people to act immorally because you actually seem to know some science and your rejection of Einstein isn't based on actually critically examining it but because you have some sort of personal bias that you won't address. It's worse because you should know better and understand how the process of science works, rather than blame some bogeyman that suppresses free thinking and alternative theories.

It's also sad because I have tried valiantly to understand what you are claiming and try to find support for what you claim yet when you make clear and obvious mistakes, you won't address them and with a wave of the hand, profess they are not mistakes without any substantive support.

Thanks MP, you just summed up almost 400 posts in one sentence.

Finally, he admits it.

Hey look! It's ignorance! Let's go wallow in it.

What good are your antics? What can you discuss? What can you prove? Nada.

And when did you stop learning and take up trolling?

^^ Not to mention our planet is spinning on it's own axis an 900+ mph...

Seedling apparently abandoned this line of thinking or found another forum to start his argument all over again. Special relativity survives! Moving this to science section.

Are you sure? SS&P is this thread's preferred <cough!> oh look ... flies! cn
