“Jewish science” is a term that the Nazis used to discredit Jewish 
scientists just because they were Jews.

Delusional, anti-semitic nonsense.

Delusional, because the “Starmaker” troll actually thinks he knows science 
when he has not the shadow of a trace of a clue about it.

Anti-semitic, because he thinks his utter lack of understanding of science 
has anything to do with the fact that it was someone from a Jewish family 
(*non-religious* Ashkenazi, BTW) who first proposed the concepts that he is 
unable or unwilling to understand.

Nonsense, because he is completely missing the point, which is:

Einstein did his all thought experiments *based on prior experimental 
evidence*.

Regarding light, it is really very simple:

How can and how do we get information about events in the first place?  
Primarily by light; in general, electromagnetic radiation.  Either emitted 
originally from there (e.g., stars) or reflected back from there (e.g., 
planets and moons).  So the speed of light and the *experimental fact* that 
it is limited and the same for all inertial observers, do matter.  For 
example, you will not realize that the Sun does not longer exist before 
about 8 minutes later than it ceased to exist there, because it takes that 
time for the information of that event to travel to you.  IOW, your Now 
*here* is different from the Now *closer to the Sun*; doubly so if the Sun 
were considerably moving away from you or towards you.

He never said that.

He would not.  For two reasons:  One, the word „Correcto“ does not exist in 
German.  Two, contrary to hateful people like you, Einstein has never 
confused his zionism with his work in physics.  He was smarter than that, a 
lot smarter than you are able to give him credit for, projecting your own 
inability and insecurity.

>> How do you say "corrector" in a jewish campus??

What does that even mean?  Were you thinking of English “co-rector”?
Then it is „Korektor“ or „Co-Rektor“ (“assistant director” 
„stellvertretender Rektor“) in German.

“corrector” (one who makes corrections) would be „Korrektor“ (in general) or 
(in the case of a work of literature) „Lektor“ instead.

I am German.  This gerberish™ certainly is not.
