Why should I hold your hand? Why can you ask me to show my proof, but you can't show me yours of his being disproved?

Just because modern academia says so, that's really your answer? Tesla still wins.
Let me mention again the experiment I already mentioned. Go get a jump rope. Swing it up and then down slowly like a wave. Then do it faster. Is the wave traveling at the same speed, or does it go faster?

And who decided that he was wrong on both counts? you? Einstein? Nobody has arrived at his genius to stand in judgment. Electricity does travel faster than light, and mass and energy are not interchangeable. E=mc2, how can you just pick a big number like the speed of light arbitrarily?

Just wondering (for the sake of stirring the pot) does the electricity generated by a bolt of lighting travel slower than the light that is produced...

That the stark realities of our world show the complete opposite of a progressively upward worldview of evolutionists should be embarrassing enough.
But to add even more insult to injury, they also adhere to these old, out-dated, terribly deficient and embarrassing concepts.

My nick is an homage to Tesla & quite frankly the ignorance of the original post is an affront to the memory of Nikola's intellect.
The man had an amazing mind as well as insight & if he were here today with this ages knowledge even he would laugh at the sheer stupidity of the claimed nonsense.

The speed is known. It's about 1/3 the speed of light.

Alright... but how fast do electromagnetic waves in a vacuum travel and is it possible that they could outpace "light" in "open air"...edit on 24-7-2013 by SwissMarked because: Too drunk to properly operate mouse...

He was crazy genius that would work without sleep for weeks on end...
But once again lets put this all in perspective. Tesla did great things, he invented AC
and the electric motor
and a number of other things that other notables took credit for his ideas.
He and Thomas Edison were very much arch enemies, always trying to outdo each other and get a head with the mysteries for that era.
But once again the key here is "for that era" and the OP is suggesting that about the time Tesla was inventing AC and the electric motor he was also so far ahead in many other things that the OP thinks modern science is all wrong.

Of course he is, just one of many who think that a mistranslated book is the answer to everything. He falls into the trap of thinking that the bible = truth. The arrogance of "Christians" is beyond belief. Most so called "Christians" are "Churchians" anyway.

Please correct your statement.
Jesus answered "I am the truth, the way and the life. "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me"
John 14:6
It is not the 'arrogance' of Christians that gets under your skin. You deem Jesus as arrogant and as such, in your pride, you lash out at any who believe Him. Science is equally as proud and as such, like the RCC, is quick to deem all who will not accept its theories as facts and truths - as heretics. In fact, much of it is unproven dogma, assumptions and theories that are passed off to every child as their daily bread producing millions upon millions of adults who reject Creation and its Creator solely because of it. I am not stating that the op is is anyway correct, but rather pointing out that pride is something that can and does blind one to truth. Even the truth that in that pride you transfer your intolerance and hatred of the truth of Jesus's words on to those who believe him. It is he that you find arrogant. Try writing it and feel your pride behind it.
