A question on General Relativity.

[jbachmurski]

<p>The true problem is that as soon as you say &ldquo;faster than light&rdquo; people act like your crazy? Science has so conditioned the people of the world to believe that some things are impossible, when in fact those things are only impossible to those scientist, based upon what they know at that time. This is what makes it impossible for someone like me to get the financing for my work.</p><p>If you blindly refuse to step into the light, you will forever remain in the dark.</p><p>I believe that God, nature, or whatever, intended for us to be the seedpods of the tree of life. I believe that it is our destiny to go out and spread life among the stars. I believe that we&rsquo;ve been capable of developing the technology to do this for sometime now. But instead our scientist have become blinded by a broken theory, and its limited vision, and in doing so have trapped and imprisoned all of us, on a world where the stars are just something far away to look at, and until we are willing to move away from those scientist and their theory, we will continue to be just as trapped and blind as they are.</p>

If you have read through that link I supplied, you will see how we keep confirming General Relativity, so as long as your own theory makes the same predictions as GR you should be fine. I look forward to hearing the announcement of your success in creating an interstellar drive that can move at more than hundreds of times the speed of light, you'll get a Nobel prize for sure. </p> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000">_______________________________________________<br /></font><font size="2"><em>SpeedFreek</em></font> </p> </div>
