   Why Einstein's Relativity Is Doomed

   From: pvalev@yahoo.com   
      
   Einstein's relativity is doomed for the simple reason that it violates the   
   following absolute truth:   
      
   The speed of light, as measured by an observer/receiver, VARIES with the speed   
   of the emitter.   
      
   Absolute truths cannot be ignored forever, no matter how brainwashed humankind   
   is.

   "Emission theory, also called emitter theory or ballistic theory of light, was   
   a competing theory for the special theory of relativity, explaining the   
   results of the Michelson–Morley experiment of 1887...The name most often   
   associated with emission    
   theory is Isaac Newton. In his corpuscular theory Newton visualized light   
   "corpuscles" being thrown off from hot bodies at a nominal speed of c with   
   respect to the emitting object, and obeying the usual laws of Newtonian   
   mechanics, and we then expect    
   light to be moving towards us with a speed that is offset by the speed of the   
   distant emitter (c ± v)." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emission_theory   
      
   "Moreover, if light consists of particles, as Einstein had suggested in his   
   paper submitted just thirteen weeks before this one, the second principle   
   seems absurd: A stone thrown from a speeding train can do far more damage than   
   one thrown from a train    
   at rest; the speed of the particle is not independent of the motion of the   
   object emitting it. And if we take light to consist of particles and assume   
   that these particles obey Newton's laws, they will conform to Newtonian   
   relativity and thus    
   automatically account for the null result of the Michelson-Morley experiment   
   without recourse to contracting lengths, local time, or Lorentz    
   ransformations. Yet, as we have seen, Einstein resisted the temptation to   
   account for the null result in terms    
   of particles of light and simple, familiar Newtonian ideas, and introduced as   
   his second postulate something that was more or less obvious when thought of   
   in terms of waves in an ether." Banesh Hoffmann, Relativity and Its Roots,
