paddoboy:
Again, q-reeus has virtually nothing except intent as evidenced by the thread title, "Simple Geometric Proof that GR GW's are impossible"...and it remains that way at least and until the whole shebang is submitted for appropriate peer review....nothing other than a claim on a science forum where you and I and most others are amateur lay people in this discipline.
As I (and earlier, James R) pointed out for your understanding, your opinion is neither here nor there, and basically useless scientifically unless you actually directly address, and present scientific or logical counter arguments to, his OP argument(s) and claims. He can title his OP and thread any way he likes. Anyway, it reads to me as what his OP is all about: arguments to falsify the GR Gravitational Waves claims. So it's a very descriptive title as to content; any "intent" read into it by you is just your own construction and attribution. Besides, the whole OP is about discussing arguments aimed at exactly what the title says the OP is about. No problem unless you have a personal agenda and biased in your reading of it. How many of the science "news" items you repost on here have titles which are similarly "sensationalist"? It is the content and subsequent discussion which sorts out the substance; the title is merely the 'teaser' to prompt discussion.
I'm attacking no one nor am I stifling any discussion. The problem exists with you under some illusion that this is some sort of academic forum for the enlightment of the scientific world, and for you to push your already known agenda, as much as you deny it.. It ain't! It's a bloody science forum like many others that people like Professor Thorne, Professor Begalman, Professor Hamilton just to name three, have never ever heard of.
Go discuss to your little heart's content. But whatever you discuss, as with your fabricated nonsense re cosmological redshift, changes nothing: That's fact. sorry ol friend.
It's difficult to know which angle you are coming from if you keep making such self-contradictory statements and assertions. On the one, hand you "bomb" threads and discussions with your usual links and appeals to authority and "I support mainstream" uncritical and unargued statements and assertions which effectively sabotage any further chances of a reasonable scientific discussion going ahead; and on the other hand you say you are not attacking anyone in that very same way!
And again with your attributing "agendas" while having the worst of agendas here yourself (as James and I and others have observed and explained to you where and why that is so).
And whatever this site is, it isn't some paddoboy spamming and sabotaging site. It's for discussing properly and fairly posed questions and OPs according to scientific method and fairness principles. Principles which you still seem to be totally unaware of even now after being pointed out calmly and patiently for your benefit.
And whatever discussions here change or do not change, it is not for you to mischaracterize, demand or constrain or sabotage etc as you have been caught doing too often now to be any longer missed by anyone looking on.
Please do not persist in the attitude and attacks which cause most of the avoidable misunderstandings and friction here which the moderators and admin have to waste time cleaning up after your unreasonable, inciting, irrelevant "opinion and links bombing" messes.
Must take time to comment on that paragraph......
[1] I view nothing misconstrued at least as far as this subject is concerned.
[2] My views align with the mainstream which the vast majority see as the most logical model, and as supported by observational and experimental results. Do you understand? It's really simple, just try.
[3] Appeals to authority are of course the proper way to go on science forums such as this where amateurs like you and I frequent. As long as those appeals to authority are appropriate and expert in that particular area of expertise.eg: Appeal to a Vet re growing tomatoes is invalid: Appeals to Professors of physics, Astronomy, Cosmology about GR and BH's certainly is a valid result for obvious reasons. You understand?, I mean really, its not that hard, just try!
[4]Professor Thorne whom I E-Mailed gave a reply: A reply that justifiably explained why he was unable to research the lengthy post of the OP that I sent, but confirmed what we already knew. That is, that GW's of GR type have been confirmed twice now, and that as a result, also BH's are as good as confirmed...particularly since deniers such as the god are unable to present any scenario that explains the effects we see on spacetime and matter/energy.
And from what I have heard, there still maybe more confirmed sightings.
Your own self-assessment and conclusions regarding your own behavior hardly come from an "impartial and objective" source, do they, paddoboy?
I, James, and others, have pointed out your faulty and trouble-causing behavior and attacks; and we have appealed to you to tone it down and consider avoiding interrupting and attacking based on opinionated and/or appeals to authority irrelevancies and based on your own misconstruings and mischaracterizations which apparently you are still in denial about even after them having been clearly pointed out for you with examples in support (such as this thread's OP and that other thread's OP). How many and how long will it take to get through your state of denial, paddoboy?
So that justifies what you said in about 6 or so posts? C'mon sonny, pull the other one, it whistles.
The real reason was imho, is that the god was given a weeks suspension.
What does it take, paddoboy? I only posted what I did because of the observation of how the sabotage of MY Distinguishing cosmological from SR redshift etc thread by mischaracterizing trolls who did not read or understand properly my OP in that thread.
Whether The God gets banned or not is not my business nor should it be. So again you have used that false attribution of reasons and motives in order to make your straw man and personal attack based on your own opinion rather than the facts. What does it take, paddoboy, for you to see that it is you who has been the problem here?
I'm not fooled by those with agendas or cranks or god botherers etc.
Why do you insist on invoking "god botherers" when you KNOW I am an ATHEIST? What does it take to stop you employing that irrelevance as a tactic for insinuation and personal attack? Please don't do it again. Thankyou.
I take notice intently of reputable people, even those that may not like my style...I read and have read many reputable books.
I am capable of learning and have on three forums I have participated in.
Mainstream is mainstream for a particular reason. It matches observations and experiments best, according to the experts.
Discussions on a science forum, although potentially helpful and always interesting, is also not the arena for invalidating accepted theories for many reasons, not the least being that the participants like you and I are just not qualified.
I read earlier somewhere about you matriculating in uni. You did not elaborate in what discipline. Certainly not astronomy or cosmology or GR: But I'm rather confident if you did matriculate at get your PhD, it was in the electrical arena. close?
As far as I am aware, no one here has presumed to trammel your choice of whom to "notice intently", paddoboy. In any case, the question of whether whom you "notice intently" is correct or not is a matter for settling via fair and proper discussion, not via your personal and uncomprehending opinions or approvals. That is what scientific method dictates. You have been failing to apply those dictates while "bombing" threads and discussions with your now infamous opinionated irrelevancies and appeals to authority without any attempt to actually read and understand and address properly the issue or Op etc which you "bomb" as described many times now.
Paddoboy, it seems you may need some time out to get over the shock of being told the truth about your behavior for some time now; behavior which has occasioned me and James and others trying to get through to you that it is the source of much of the otherwise avoidable hassles which has wasted the time of moderators and admin much too much. Time to stop the hassles, paddoboy. Please try and moderate yourself a bit more in future, so that none of us will have any cause to raise the issue of your behavior ever again. Thankyou.
