All deductions result in, and are based upon, the assumption they accurately reflect reality.

More little word games. Please restrict yourself to posts in English. I'm sure you'd love to construct another language in which a deduction is in fact an assumption, but that's not the one we're using here.

That nothing can travel faster than the speed of light is a consequence of special relativity, not an assumption. Deal with it.

Actually I consider it a word game that science would make propositions related to unobserved, unrecorded history, call it a "theory," and proceed as if making statements of unassailable certitude. It's a huge word game of self-delusion perpetrated upon an often uncritical audience. In some circles it appears to be coming to an end.

Please restrict yourself to posts in English.

I have been, and I will continue to do so.
