This does not violate the laws of physics. If Lessans is right, light becomes a condition of sight, not a cause.  |
Lady.
Get. Help.
You need a therapist. I kid you not. You are going to end up a danger to yourself and/or others if you don't do something about this. This is insane. I don't mean "funny". I don't mean "challenging to the mainstream". I do really mean not sane.
You are advocating a complete rejection of everything we've ever learned about light and sense organs based on the rantings of a person who absolutely refused to do any sort of empirical testing, and whose claims explicitly reject the very concept of testing. Mostly, what you're saying about perception is simply untestable, but in some cases you can test it... and it's wrong. We've already long since established that human eyes get exactly the same time-delayed data that every other kind of sensor does.
Your dad was insane. Yeah, can't diagnose over the Internet and all that, but seriously, this stuff about suddenly perceiving things that revolutionize the world, and that contradict basic physics, and which never pan out? Textbook schizophrenia.
I dunno what's wrong with you. My guess is it's purely emotional; you are utterly committed to the idea that your dad was right, not crazy, and you're throwing your life away to try to prove this. Meanwhile, you obviously know it's insane, because you are very carefully avoiding learning enough about science to be able to test any of this. You have lots of rationalizations, but that's all they are. |
I never said we don't get data from light. In fact, I said that we can pick up light on our detectors, but we don't get a past image such that if we were on the star Rigel we would be able to see Columbus discovering America if the light from this past event struck our telescopes. We do not get an exact copy of matter from light alone. This is not a far out concept when you understand it.

Don't worry about me, okay? I'm quite able to handle whatever I need to share, and this is one of them. You are entitled to reject what I offer. I'm not force feeding this to you.

If he's right and this ends war and crime, you will have accomplished a great thing. If you stick to trying to conceal and protect it, that just tells people that you know it's not persuasive. (Whether or not that's how you feel, that's the message people get.)

Believe me, I am making the Mp3 available after 40 years of this tape turned CD turned Mp3 being safety guarded.
