You are really offended by the Einstein Idiots. I can see why. It's strong language that Bill Gaede uses because he feels that mainstream science does not allow debate and censors the alternative thinkers.

I'm not offended, actually, I'm humored when I see someone uneducated and uniquely unqualified to form and promote an opinion on a subject, doing just that.

A classic illustration of denial.

Yes history has painted ancient people as ignorant savages; full of irrelevant fairy tales.
So it's understandable; to think since we are so far in the future, our advancement trumps their knowledge in every way. The irony of that is the further we progress the more we find; that many of these 'discoveries' are nothing new. The difference? Terminology. The atom is described in detail in the Abhidhamma Pitaka for example, written around 29 BCE.
The two elemental polarities form a third shape torus/vortex/oroborous/3d Mobius strip. This is the zero point, the trinity.

...so it should be obvious to you that I have looked into Buddhism; 22 solid years of it. Do you have the wisdom behind it's concepts or parrot pray? Maybe just thought it a cool screen name...debasing others with names, and ad hominem attacks such as you have done here with others is not a debate.
If you can't refute; it appears you decide to just debase and beat down by attacking integrity.

Looking at descriptions of aether and dark matter they seem to be; pointing to the same thing, but in different terms...if you're still following this thread; your thoughts would be appreciated.

The Aether is Akasha, the fifth Element, or state of matter. It is NOT part of the physical universe because it is the matter that belongs to a higher, superphysical reality. All ancient traditions regarded Aether as the SOURCE of the physical universe - not merely as some kind of physical matter IN the physical universe.
In 1965, anyone who mentioned ether seriously was considered a candidate for an asylum unless, of course, he were someone who worked with it such as a radio operator, a navigator, or an engineer. Ether had been proposed and given certain qualities which I found to be false. So when I began to work with advanced ether theory, the name "ether" was tainted. To avoid confusion with old obsolete ether theory, I gave the dynamic ether a new name. I began calling it "nether" after the mythical ancient Greek name for the underlying substance. Today the astrophycists, not able to cover up its presence any longer and wanting to refer to it in a way that would make it appear to be a new idea, have christened it "dark energy".
Gravity proved to be the key to understanding the rest of the universe and its phenomena. The nature of light and magnetism were immediately apparent. The fact that time dilation existed became apparent in a matter of weeks and the same equation for time dilation found in Einstein's theory was easily derived from this new foundation for physics. Of course, what is called "Dark Energy" today was known immediately as it is an integral part of the correct theory for gravity. Dark Energy and "Dark Matter" are still problems for contemporary physicists. Both have been explained very logically on this website and are certainly no mystery.
I had always wondered why E = mc 2 did not conform to the usual equation for kinetic energy which is KE = mv 2/2. It was the "divided by two" part of the KE equation that did not translate into the matter/energy equivalency. Once the nature of light was understood, I could easily derive the matter/energy equation from the KE equation. When I received copies of Einstein's last work from Princeton, I realized that Einstein had been fruitlessly working along the same lines.
So a true understanding of gravity is the key. Gravity can be easily and thoroughly understood by any competent aeronautical engineer, by most plumbers, and by many housewives. Yet, it is almost incomprehensible to the typical physicist.

Here's another Lew Paxton Price quote, from "PERTINENT INFORMATION":
This not the fault of the physicists. Physicists are not trained for such things and must "unlearn" too much to easily grasp concepts such as "funnel" gravity. Our educational institutions require overhauling in every way from their financial foundations to their fundamental philosophy of non-acceptance of the new and unusual. Small wonder that the true nature of gravity, simple as it is, has not been discovered by those who claim to be the authorities. Yet, there are physicists and engineers who were working along the same lines and have discovered most of the basics on their own.

Description: In this video, British biologist Dr. Rupert Sheldrake, one of the world's most innovative scientists, describes how science is being constricted by unexamined assumptions that have hardened into dogmas*. These dogmas not only put arbitrary limits on the depth and scope of science, but may well be dangerous for the future of humanity.
According to these dogmas, all of reality is material or physical; the world is an inanimate machine; nature is purposeless; free will is an illusion; notions of higher orders of consciousness and absolute ("God") awareness exist only as ideas in human minds, which are themselves nothing but electrochemical processes imprisoned within our skulls.
So Dr. Sheldrake asks: should science be an ideology or belief system, or should it reclaim its birthright as an unbiased, open-ended method of inquiry? In his latest book, SCIENCE SET FREE, he argues that the materialist ideology is moribund; under its sway, increasingly expensive research is reaping diminishing returns while societies around the world are paying the price. In the skeptical spirit of true science, SCIENCE SET FREE turns ten fundamental dogmas of materialist science into exciting questions, and shows how all of them open up startling new possibilities for discovery. This book may well challenge your view of what is real and what is possible.
