Re: The Theory of Special Relativity for the Totally Confused Beginner
You guys are great,
Well if you can't understand it I guess the Totally confused beginner would experience the same problem. It merely represents the turmoil I went through in trying to logically grasp relativity. I am curious as to whether you guys actually read it properly. It seems from your responses that you understood it to be against Special Relativity.
The conclusion of the paper is that Special Relativity is correct. I am also aware that Special Relativity makes absolutely no sense in a Gallilean absolute reference frame - whereby *your* time equals *my* time regardless of velocity. We as a society are brought up in a Gallilean world and are somewhat unprepared to understand Special Relativity.
However IF you guys DO seem to think that relativity does make sense I suggest that you have no grounding in logic.
Allow me to quote myself:
"Somewhere along the line spacetime and our logical mind is playing tricks on us. We can test the difference. We can measure the difference. But it is impossible for the logical mind to understand the difference.
Our logical mind suggests it's impossible. Special Relativity says it
is 'actual'."
