Persol,
You just re-posted and replied to my re-post. In your response I see incrediable differencs of view, I would hope to determine if you missed my points or if I miss yours.
The problem starts here:

You each have a problem.
Just because you do not like the theory does not mean we have a problem.
[[I would have to go back and look to be sure but I know my meaning there was not personnally directed. I was referring to posts that had been made. That is the basis of the disagreement upto that point seemed to be based on false grounds. So this was not meant to be taken personal]]
*********************
*********************
Then you make false statements:
Relativity says there is no such thing as absolute velocity. You can't limit what you claim does not exist. Simple as that.
[[This is the one that really floors me. You are claiming here that I have made false claims when Relativity has as its very basis that all velocity is relative velocity and that there is no such thing as"Absolute Velocity". PLEASE SHOW ME ONE PASSAGE IN RELATIVITY THAT SAYS OTHERWISE. It doesn't exist. What are you saying here. Where is it coming from?]]
**********************
**********************
Then you full out attack a theory which you do not fully understand:
Relativity is bunk flat out.
[[In this case you are properly qualifying your statement but it too is borderline. Only because you put "fully" in that statement would I accept it. But it is only very marginally correct. My understanding of Relativity is fair but not full as you said. I can easily handle the algebra. I do know how to read and have read a great deal. One can understand what is being said without knowing the mechanics of the mathematics used in its detailing the process. There is a big difference in not understanding Relativity and not being capable of the more indepth mathematics in its actual resolution. I do understand Relativty. I know what it claims. I see the math and I don't challenge the math. I do challenge some of the interpretations drawn from it. I am more inclined to believe that part of the problem is an unwillingness of some to accept the premis that the math may be correct but that that doesn't represent reality. Math can be used to describe reality but it cannot create reality. Not in its entireity but in some areas I do believe that is what has happened. Even though the math appears to describe observation there are other explanations for that observation than the relavistic math. And before we get to the "You just don't understand" bit, I must remind you of what I have said many times and that is even though I hold this opinion, I do not stand alone. I stand with other scientists that are equally qualified and experienced as those that disagree with this view. My qualifications are not the issue here. The issue is the issue about Relativity. I and I alone have not made that assertion others also make that assertion and they favor LR over GR or SR and they aare highly qualified to make that choice. How do you think attacking my qualifications is answering that issue???]]
***************************
***************************
Then you make a suggestion that it is a function of something you don't understand
Light in my opinion is produced as a function of energy via the Chiral Condensate (instantaneous signal carrier involved in particle entanglement).
[[Here you are correct. I cannot say I understand the Chiral Condensate. I do understand what is being said about it and I do have a fair capacity to correlate ideas. It was a qualified statement of my opinion. I don't see that you or any of the others had any basis for challenging that idea since from the posts that sprang from that showed that those posters knew less than I, to the extreme extent of even denying such a thing even existed. It is preposterous to challenge my view of the meaning of new findings, when you don't even know of the findings. It is preposterous. Since I nor even those working in that field really know yet what it is or how it works it is ludricrus that I should be told to either explain it or shut up. You are saying you don't want to know of science discoveries because it is coming to your attention from an unqualified person. That means I shouldn't even quote a scientific journal. What all this really comes down to is that you (I am using "you" generically by the way don't get personal on me) only want to talk to others with credentials compareable to yours and you will only talk down to any others. By that I mean you are willing to teach us but never listen to us.
************************
************************
Then you say this fixes all our supposed problems without any proof
No light paradox - no need for Relativity and all those fun paradoxes or Relativity vanish. wahla.
[[The point still stands, should it be determined that the velocity of light is not actually constant but is an illusion (which it may be) then many of the problems do go away. Just like recognizing the statement "You can't set a limit on what you claim does not exist". That is a very powerful and truthful statement and none of you have satisfactorily answered that question. You do a lot of dancing and name calling but YOU HAVE NOT REDOLVED THAT ISSUE. It is still a true statement and it still applies to Relativity.
Saying "I don't understand" is not the correct answer. For you to deny that paradox of Relativity shows you don't understand the problem. The same problem that other scientist do see. Not just me. So you should really back off the personal attacks and think about the macroscopic view of the issue.]]
***********************
************************
There is no science in that post. Hence it is psuedoscience. There is a vague question in there... but the rest is an attack on a theory you don't understand.
[[It ain't pseudo-science until you explain how you propose to limit a rocket from accelerating based on an observers view of the rocket. The fuel, thrust engine and rocket load are an independant system from every other observer in the universe. All of which have a different view of the rockets motion, mass, velocity etc. Before you say again, "It is because you don't understand", I do understand. I understand that the rocket pilot sees no such changes to his physical system and nothing prevents him from throtteling up. You want to argue that yes he speed up and can keep speeding up indefinitely but that he will never exceed the speed of light. Why? Well lets see, we can attempt to invoke the Velocity Addition Formula or Infinite mass limit but those are not physical limits on the rockets physics. Those are observational mathematics and every observer in the univserse would have him restricted to a different velocity if that had influence on his physics. They don't and they can't.
Since this issue has never been tested to say he can't exceed v = c is a mathematical extrapolation based on what I believe the true answer is and that is a mis-interpretation of the "apparent" mass increase to infinity.
Can I prove that hell no. But I can show a reasonable alternative to actual mass change which provides the same observation but does not impose an infinite mass limit. Maybe, just maybe you should consider that. It has a powerful impact on the restraints being imposed by your mathematical concept.
*******************
And finally I am not going to even get into a multitude of debates about prove this or prove that. You folks are content, so be it. I am not here to make converts, nor will I be converted without bonified solutions to problems I have proposed.
All your attacks mean jack crap. The only thing that counts is have you resolved the issue. My answer is NO. In many minor areas yes but to the key problems and questions NO. You have attempted to distort the issue and claim answers but they have not been on point and have not fullfilled a scientific resoluton of the problems as presented.
Before you pop off about I don't know about scientific method let me also tell you that is crap as well.
Would I prefer to be accepted by this MSB? Certainly. Is it crucial for me to do so? Absolutely not. Am I willing to alter my views? You bet but only on solid bonified basis. For the most part this forum has failed to provide that scientific basis.
It is one thing to complain that we refuse to accept an answer, it is another to continue to provide unacceptable answer and claim they are valid.
That is where we are at and that is why I feel it is important to re-structure the MSB. But the problem seems to be that many on this MSB simply feel if we don't agree with your views it is pseudo-science. It is only pseudo-science when it is proven pseudo-science and you cannot frankly judge many issues using the basis of theories being challenged as proof against the concept. That establishes a rule that it must pass a test of complete agreement with an existing theory to become a counter theory. And that is ludricrus. Some issues must be considered seperate and upon their own principles first.
Then and only then may you find alternatives that work which are not in agreement with current theory.
