Gary & EVERYONE:

Logical Critique of Relativity Improved & Revised

A. Curved space:

Parallel lines have not been and can never be proven to meet.
Unambiguously, that would involve the reification fallacy.
Therefore, space does not curve, and the universe is not spherical.
Space is a vacuum, so it cannot curve.

B. Time & Length:

1. Time dilation:

This would require something that would affect all processes equally so
that they would change their rate in unison. Otherwise, it would cause
some rates to be altered, not time itself dilating. Relativity claims
relative motion per se causes this. There is nothing about that that
could cause it. Many factors influence the rates, but not one.

Time is a comparison of rates of change requiring one consistent
standard of comparison.

This standard of comparison is an abstraction. Changing this necessarily
involves the reification fallacy, making it illogical nonsense.

Time does not dilate.

2. Length contraction: Like time, for length itself to change equally
for everything in unison requires a reasonable cause. Relative motion is
nothing of the kind.

Length does not contract.


C. Therefore, It is illogical to believe in relativity.
