#617572 — charlatan syndrome

charlatan[char·la·tan || 'ʃɑːlətən]
n. quack, impostor, fraud, one who claims more skill or knowledge than he actually has....Origin: C17 (denoting an itinerant seller of supposed remedies): from Fr., from Ital. ciarlatano, from ciarlare 'to babble'."-Babylon Dictionary.

For example, one who says 2 + 2= five or that he can change the distance and time in the speed equation to keep the speed the same regardless of relative motion.

For example, relativists.

Thousands of scientists have long recognized that relativity is charlatanry when they point out that the emperor has no clothes. 

Authoritative source: "Einstein and the Emperor's New Clothes Syndrome: The Expose of a Charlatan" by Robert L. Henderson c.2006. Not to mention many others who have made the same comparison.

Stop fantasising. This is just silliness. You don't understand the theory,
just get over it and move on.

Oh patent nonsense. Not even wrong, gobbledygook. You do know how to
write pseudoscientific word salad.

It is sad you are again unable to make a coherent reply.

It's very easy to write clever one-liners like "It is sad you are again unable
to make a coherent reply."

The fact is that one cannot answer "coherently", as you put it, to
a pseudoscientific, meaningless, word salad.

All you do is post complete nonsense that doesn't even *begin* to
touch the subject it pretends to be addressing.

So I just point it out. I suggest you switch to a hobby you can be good at
instead.

Come on, trash, The Shit of your idiot guru was not even
consistent. It has been proven here,and apart of some 
moronic rants you can do nothing about it. Neither
your fellow idiots can.

There is no such thing as "coherent reply" to complete mental chaos.
So I just pointed out your post was nonsense. It looked like
frustrated screams of a madman.

Einstein and The-Emperor's-New-Clothes Syndrome: The Expose of a Charlatan – 9 enero 2007

Wow! This really opens one enormous can of worms!I couldn't put the book down. Einstein has been a hero of mine for many years and I love the explanation of gravity as a geometrical effect instead of a force. I love the way Einstein's relativity makes the whole universe understandable - even accessible physically as at only 0.8% of the speed of light humans could access any point in the universe in only 25 years due to time dilation. The Big Bang has been my creation story since childhood.

Henderson doesn't state it directly - but his closing sentence makes it clear: this has become a religion! No one dares contradict it - not because they don't want to - but because they don't want to look stupid. No one can successfully relate the abstract mathematics to reality - so they just pretend that they can. Ironically Einstein himself stated: "As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain, as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality." Perhaps someone should have listened to that!

Since being alerted by this book I have searched the internet and found a lot of scientists strongly in agreement with Henderson - many publishing videos and articles with the math explained etc.

My reason for buying this book is because I'd written a short article with the same title and then stumbled across this book by chance and was curious why he might have applied the title to Einstein. My own experience taught me that this effect is very real, so I could identify with what the author might have experienced. I am shocked however that this goes so deep into the fabric of our most advanced and venerated institutions. But then perhaps I should have expected that. This book is an excellent and thought-provoking read - but prepare to give up your scientific and mathematical religion!

[...]
I don't know if Henderson's solutions are on the right track but it's clear that we have to go back 100 years and pick up science where it took a wrong turning. No wonder they still use Newton even in the space age.

Einstein and The-Emperor's-New-Clothes Syndrome: The Expose of a Charlatan - Softcover
Henderson, Robert L.


Synopsis

The purpose of this book is to explain how, through a strange set of circumstances, Albert Einstein became hailed as both the greatest scientist of all time and the greatest man of the 20th century. This is particularly puzzling since he was perhaps the most irrational person ever to masquerade as a mathematician or scientist. The book explains how all of Einstein's impossible concepts of the world around us--as well as his unintelligible attempts to mathematically express those concepts--became accepted solely through operation of The-Emperor's-New-Clothes syndrome: the most egregious example of this syndrome that has ever occurred.

No, iot's not puzzling. The author is simply an ignoramus.

Quick! Sell yours to some bigger fool and have a little vacation!

Oh right, you never read it so you don't have a copy. Hey, you would 
make a great bigger fool for someone, why not buy that?

Like Einstein, relativists pretend to be intelligent while championing a stupid theory.

No need to confabulate weird conspiracy theories. What's happening is
you simply don't understand this theory (and probably nothing in physics
but this I cannot tell for sure yet).

As to why an adult would choose to throw invective at something he
does not understand is a question for a specialist in mental derangements.

Saying "pretending to be intelligent" is not invective. Try to up your comprehension.

Your beloved Shit has been proved inconsistent, poor trash.
Tour wise faces are not changing anything.

Citing another crackpot with no evident qualifications in physics won't 
convince anyone apart from other crackpots who are convinced already.

What's the basis for your "Authoritative"?

The basis is reasoning. The reasoning of the critics is correct, and the defenders of relativity are gibberish. The point is relativity is totally phony, as has been shown if you would ever deign to examine the critic's works which you are ignorant of because of your weak-minded inclination to appeal to authority.
