And I don't know how to explain it any other way.  |

I'm not weaseling. If my explanation isn't good enough, then someone else may come along in the future and explain it better.

But that's exactly what you believe when you talk about red photons coming before blue. What is it then if it's not that particular wavelength/frequency that just bounced off the object and is traveling through space/time?

I'm sorry you're frustrated, but so am I.
