“Sorry you don’t believe people might learn more.”
No, it’s not that I don’t believe that. I certainly do.
It’s just that some things are so clearly confirmed that the likelihood they will ever be found to be proven wrong is infintessimal, and this is one of them.
It’s not like we can’t tell when a theory is an incomplete description of reality. That is usually quite apparent from the beginning, or becomes apparent rather quickly when we compare the theory’s predictions to observations. And the signs of that simply aren’t there in the case of what we know about matter and the speed of light.
Therefore, the only reason to think that we, or some imaginary “aliens”, might find a way around this law, is if one is intent in engaging in wishful thinking. I try to avoid that.
Then explain the phenomena that is currently stymieing Congress? At this point there is enough diverse testimony and video to show that these things exist. No one in the midst of the debate is disputing that.
So how do they move with no regard whatsoever for Newton’s Laws of Motion? This is unimaginable with our current level of understanding and technology. Yet all the same it exists.
As to relativity for the moment it describes the universe as we understand it. Even Einstein would agree that as the understanding changes then so too might the Theory of Relativity need to be adjusted, modified, or obviated based upon new evidence. It is not and never was Holy Writ nor should it be treated that way.
