Saying it's nonsense a thousand times a thousand isn't going to change the fact that it is anything but nonsense.
The eyes don't have nerve endings like the other senses. This already shows the eyes are not a sense organ in the way a sense organ is defined.
That is an amazing post to start reading a thread at.
Hmmm, just like we have four senses and a pair of eyes.It’s not because Einstein said it. It’s because it’s true. Einstein was just the first to discover it is true. It has been experimentally demonstrated countless different times and ways. As I just told you, the GPS device in your phone is designed to take into account gravitational and relativistic time dilation. And yes, time is a dimension. Einstein demonstrated that we live in a four dimensional universe, three dimensions of space and one of time.I’m not going to argue with you because you believe time is a dimension that can contract and dilate. Einstein said so. There is no way we will ever meet on grounds that we can agree upon, so let’s leave this subject for now. I know you won’t.Yes, peacegirl, it does prove it. You keep telling everyone that we see everything instantly, that if God turned on the sun at noon we would see it instantly, even though it takes the light eight minutes to reach the eye. If this were true, everyone, in every reference frame, would see everything instantly, and all agree on what they saw and what time it happened. The relativity of simultaneity proves that this is not the case. From the relativity of simultaneity we also get time dilation, which would be impossible in a world of real-time seeing. We went over this with you again and again at FF. Your cellphone has a GPS. Every time you use your phone for directions or to find the location of something, you are refuting your author’s claims.This is because the GPS in your phone must account for both gravitational and relativistic time dilation. But time dilation would not happen in a world of real-time seeing.That makes sense because it shows that the frame of reference between being on the ground and being on a moving train allows us to see the lightning differently at the same time. This is no surprise really. In fact, it makes sense. Whether we see lightning simultaneously or sequentially demonstrates that depending on our frame of reference where one is stationary and one is moving changes what we see. Both people are obviously seeing the lightning differently as it strikes. It still does not prove what you think it does: that matter reflects light such that it travels over hundreds of years to reach the eye.It really doesn't disprove Lessans' observations. Lightning would be seen in different frames of reference because it's not matter; it's electricity. IOW, it's not an object. Do you understand why this doesn't apply?
No, I do not understand why this does’t apply, because there is nothing to understand. It is nonsense.
Light is an electromagnetic wave. We do not see light. We see the things light illumines.
In the case of Einstein’s train gedanken, the person on the ground sees the back and front of the train illumined and the air between the train and her eyes illumined simultaneously. The person on the train sees the front of the train and the back of the train and the air between them illumined sequentially. This is proof we do not see in real time. If we did, the train observer and the ground observer would agree when the lightning struck.
I don't think time is a dimension. Clocks may run slower due to gravitational pull but that does not mean that time actually slows down or speeds up when time is a measurement of change. It's not a thing in itself.Yes I have. They may be able to convert one to the other in theory, but lightning as we know it in nature is an electrical charge that is not a form of matter. We can see it in real time as it strikes, not because light travels faster than sound. Thunder takes longer because it the sound travels which takes time.
No they don't, not like the other four.
What does being dead have to do with his knowledge? Does the fact that he died mean his discovery has no value? What a ridiculous thing to say.
I was never rejected. I feel frustrated not threatened. It's upsetting because the world is not doing well, and this knowledge could prevent what all the threats of punishment and all the promises of peace could not achieve.
That's sort of Zen. It takes a collective to bring peace on a global scale, although being a peaceful individual can make for a more peaceful environment in general.
This is not about an individual at all. It's about the extension of knowledge never before understood (the two-sided equation) and that when we extend this knowledge into all areas of human interaction, major changes can occur for our betterment.
Incorrect. When you say radiated, light is still doing its thing. It's attributes are still there. You keep going back to light rather than the eyes, and that's why it makes no sense.
Light reveals the external world, it doesn't bring the external world to us. You can continue to believe what you want.
Interesting but really doesn't negate real time vision. Good try though.

Because the optic nerve is really a tract, not a nerve, it is surrounded by the three layers of meninges and cerebrospinal fluid. The two optic nerves meet underneath the hypothalamus, just in front of the pituitary stalk, and many of the fibers cross to the opposite side.
