he regards the big bang theory as fact.
he regards the black hole hypothesis as fact.
then he decides that time would slow down as you approached a black hole therefore eventually stop. another theory.
from there he jumps in and says god cannot exist because in a timeless area the question as to whether god exists cannot be put.
give us a break!

Bizarre as these effects appear to us slow moving mortals, relativistic time dilation has been repeatedly confirmed in high energy particle accelerators, where particles travel near the speed of light, and by atomic clock on supersonic aircraft.

You don't say!
he regards the big bang theory as fact.
Seems to fit the data...
he regards the black hole hypothesis as fact.
Another one of those pesky things that fit the data...
then he decides that time would slow down as you approached a black hole therefore eventually stop. another theory.
Yep, darn those pesky GPS satellites that have the same issue! Those Godless atomic clocks that slow down or speed up depending on gravity! Damn them that they show the predicted effects of GR and SR to within 0.7%! It's obviously Satan causing them to change rate.
edit to add: only from an outside observer, if you're the one riding the thing into the black hole, it's all real time to YOU, it only looks like you stop at the event horizon to the outside.

I think you're confusing "theory" with the way it's used on ATS, which is generally whim or baseless conjecture, and the way science uses it, which is "I've got an idea that actually fits the data seen in the real world and makes sense based on all the math and understanding of the subject we've gotten heretofore".
Doesn't mean it's right, but it's worth seeing if Professor Plum did it with the candlestick. At that point, your peers try those other pesky things, like duplicating your work, seeing if it does indeed match reality as we can observe it, seeing if you did your maths wrong, all the units come out right and that there's not an easier explanation and those sorts of things.edit on 9-1-2013 by Bedlam because: (no reason given)
