Would you be so kind as to show me the Post # where I said what you claimed I said? Thanks.

Post 251, in which you write (and I quote):

"No, the appearance of something moving is relative.

Reality, however, cares not a whit for appearances. Either something is moving or it isn't, regardless of how it appears in your relative frame of reference."

Because you make this assertion, you also implicitly assert that you know it to be true, i.e. you can tell. I'm asking how. Please share your insight with me, by pointing out how you know that there's an absolute frame of reference. Where's the motionless object that serves as our absolute reference point?

Is merely asking sufficient, or do you require that I get down on my knees and pray?
