It has been demonstrated that the speed of light is a constant. Which, despite differences − demonstrated through various media, as well as the effects of gravity − means that speeds are not additive, with respect to the speed of light. A moving body will either compress or stretch wavelengths − in relation to an observer. Hence, the attendant red-shift, of a sources frequency is noted. The speed at which the wave is propagated, however, remains the same. It's how astronomers are able to tell whether stars are moving towards or away from us. And provides established evidence, for an expanding universe.

Well Scottie, respectfully I respond that you are merely re-quoting someone's theory that you read or heard. Yup, I know lots of research grant dollars were spent on the study of the speed of light but I'm not buying into that theory. I'm an independent thinker. It is not logically possible for the speed of light to be constant. I hope we both live long enough to find that I am right and that other guy was wrong.

Furthermore; I don't buy into the theory that petroleum comes from long buried, rotted, dinosaur carcasses and tropical vegetation or that we all originated from middle Africa or that Venus was originally formed in our solar system. I could go on but I really like this forum.

Check with my friend Immanuel for more information.

David - your purportedly respectful reply to Scottie is quite a claim from someone not even bothering himself to answer questions,
post relevant and identified facts or some empirically qualified theories, though demanding that every else should do so.
And when somebody (including myself) does - you "refute" them by calling them "fanatics", or as merely re-quoting someone,
instead of putting in some relevant, qualified and identified facts and theories yourself.

For starters: Please explain those "petroleum, human and Venus origin" ideas of yours,
and then just go on proving that you haven't merely swallowed Mr Velikovskys theories with bait, hook and sinker yourself?

As you presume to be a "Man on a Mission", walking the lonesome path of yet another "independent thinker",
feel absolutely free to experience more of this independence than even you could've imagined!

I, for one, wish you godspeed.

cheers
Johan

Hi Johan, actually I did not 'call' anyone anything. I always try to speak in general terms so as to not offend any specific person; only everyone in general.

With reference to my refusing to answer questions, I believe I will continue to not do that.

Thank you for your interest.
