That could be true, after all its a tool for understanding the
universe, especially a home -made tool...it`s all philosophy after all.

That could be true, after all its a tool for understanding the
universe, especially a home -made tool...it`s all philosophy after all.
=================================================
Kadoshima doesn't have a monopoly on either evil or stupidity.
Whales are mammals, whales have no legs.
We establish by definition that all mammals have no legs. Stupid or a hoax?

We establish by definition that the ``time'' required by light to travel
from A to B equals the ``time'' it requires to travel from B to A. --
Einstein
It does if A is at rest relative to B.

If A and B move together in the empty space universal absolute inertial
frame of reference stationary system of coordinates yada yada yada that is
not preferred but the speed of light is c in that empty space, then the time
of light one-way A to B is t = x'/(c-v) and from B to A is t = x'/(c+v).
Stupid or a hoax?

If Einstein wasn't a huxter then he was stupid, if he wasn't stupid
he was a huxter.

But Einstein goes on and claims
1/2 [ tau(0,0,0,t) + tau(0,0,0,t+x'/(c+v)+x'/(c-v))] = tau(x',0,0, t+
x'/(c-v))
http://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/einstein/specrel/www/figures/img22.gif

Having put his nonsense in the form of algebra he knowingly gave it
fake credence; therefore he was not stupid, he was evil. His followers
are stupid.

It has nothing to do with philosophy, its a con. Kodashima is babbling.

Just because mathematics is symmetrical, this does not equate
to learning or knowledge, the software of computer programs,
or time is symmetrical.

Never mind "Androcles" (John Parker), he's a senile old fart who has a
(bad) obsession with Einstein, and he doesn't really understand relativity
anyway.

(space below is reserved for Parker to curse and cuss at me for pointing
this out)
