Except for the one in my own image? God is a being, not an idea or concept. You nor Sadler GET to force God, to fit your molds. That is EXACTLY what you've done. "God" for you, is who you decided, which is an idea, an idol. Overstated. Most of the conflicts between Jesus were about...

Well, not in Sadler's rendition, but: Then Hebrews 9:22 "The LAW requires it" Leviticus 5:11 Leviticus 17:11 Ezekiel 43:18 So Sadler and Kellogg simply 'assert' sight unseen "God never..." and you buy it hook, line, and sinker. You are a caught fish. When you stand before God, you can...

The Pharisees plugged their ears and yelled at the top of their lungs when they killed Stephen: Same tack. Playing 'incredulous' gets you nothing, Stripe. It is a losing argument. Bryant barely has more than a thousand hits! That's incredulous. Sorry, true. Quit running to obscure...

From physics' perspective, a fourth (at least) is necessary: respect from peers, a better working model, and demonstration accepted by all physicists. Dr Tyson was correct, because relativity works: it is the prevailing and only accepted model at this time. Bryant hasn't really...

It isn't 'slowed' it is elongated by reflection and refraction. You haven't really slowed light, you just made the place where it is going, longer. Such may 'seem' like you are slowing light, you aren't, you just put something in the way so it has further to go to get to your eye...

Yep "Fore" "Knowledge." Yet many open theists are so inconsistent as to not know that God certainly knew what was in Abraham's mind. Not when it is part of my conversations, repeatedly. There are Open Theists, and shockingly (to me) Bob Enyart, who believe God had no idea where Adam was when...

Yes: that God didn't know Abraham's mind before he offered up Isaac. Almost all of my answered prayers, are silent and unspoken. God knows EXACTLY what is in our mind. So, self-defeating concept #1: God is COMPLETELY able to read minds. Why? Because in addition to knowing the exact...

Correct. It is like a group of mirrors that redirect light. Do they actually 'slow' light down? Nope, they simply have chopped up the distance ___ vs Z Notice the distance is the same: while the one 'seems' shorter, it actually isn't. Such very much depends on what we are asking...

I suppose, if we aren't answering the same questions. I'm convinced there is no disagreement upon these points. Yep, but look: Two minutes can be 'a unit' for a particular. That was my argument. A unit of time for cookies to bake is 10 minutes. Likely. This debate has been going on a...

'Saying "The speed of light is constant" simply means that as an object approaches the speed of light, it needs asymptotically infinite energy to continue accelerating. Therefore, there is this restriction on how fast things can go. In addition, if you were traveling at half the speed of light...

Documentation 1 Documentation 2 Counter argument and one that supports Stripe's premise that light 'slows down when it hits water.' One good response: "This has been a puzzle in the early history of relativity and has been answered comprehensively by Sommerfeld in a famous very short reply to...

...apparently most physicists either..."the short answer is no..." light refraction breaks up the colors, THEY travel at different speeds consistently. They are the same thing. You are just talking about longer/shorter and increments (units). I haven't exactly seen the overturn. While I...

Nobody adheres to Einstein's theories? 🤔 Yep To a point. It isn't wholesale agreement. I thought that was this thread... 🤔 Yet the thread is concerned with an experiment that 'tried' to make gravity not a property of the results. While it may be true, to a minute and negligible...

Sort of, an 'inch' isn't a physical thing per say, it is a concept that applies to physical things. Same as an inch, a minute is just a man-made concept. It is made of a thought that is shared. Time is simply a construct, when shared, that makes duplication and reproduction possible. While...

The premise of this thread is gravity affects clocks, not time. Time is simply a measurement. Like a tape measure is applied to a board. It is only in conjunction with something measurable that time has any meaning. It thus, is relegated to things created alone. True. I've certainly...

Leighton Flowers (in-house) compliments for Austin Fischer's respect... for about 3 minutes. Fischer: Calvinism is 'not intuitive.' Counter: it assumes we are all cookie cutter as far as what makes sense, not correct. He said he didn't even recognize it was Calvinism, but 'intuitively'...

It may one day be improved. I've no problem with that but it doesn't mean time is consistent: look, time is simply a measurement (like American or metric tape measures). It is a concept of duration and change and applies specifically to things created. I have no problem with...

Have seen many attempts to explain this, but your analogy here is better than any I've seen. It should help clear up the statistics. You are exactly right.

Never watched who wants to be a millionaire? The audience is almost always right. Moreover, in the field of physics, they are incredibly intelligent men and women. It is an appeal, based on best thinkers. I agree you reject Einstein's work. I have, repeatedly. God's existence already...

I realize that. It should have. Er, you could provide your own substance instead of complaining. It is your stage at this point. the science of ideas verses ideas? It meant I acquiesce/enjoin differing measures. Newton and Einstein provided measurement devices for time. I agree with you...
