ASTRONOMY BASICS: LOGICAL FALLACIES OF EINSTEIN'S THEORY

Einstein has no competence in the field of Astronomy.

The main source of this book is the book ‘ The Universe and Dr. Einstein’, by Lincoln Barnett, London, 1949, Foreword by Albert Einstein himself. Some reviews about this book:

“This is a brilliant, readable and clear report, by a gifted journalist, of the significance of Einstein’s theories and their far reaching effect upon the modern world. Written for laymen, it penetrates the realms of space, explains the facts available on the nature of atoms, and merges for purposes of clarity, the relation between philosophy and modern science.Utilizing the theories of Newton, Planck, Gamow, Lemaitre and Jeans, Barnett explains the Einstein concept of the universe. Relating these scientific theories to the philosophical systems existing at the time, he shows how all forms of human activity are influenced by the discoveries of science, and how Einstein’s theories are a step in this long history of research.”

“Everybody who has a mind, or who imagines he is a thinker, should understand this much of Relativity as a minimum.”—Philip Wylie

“The Universe and Dr. Einstein sets a new standard in science writing and is, I think, the first American book that can be compared in maturity, clarity, and grace with the distinguished and influential works of Sir James Jeans and Sir Arthur Eddington.”—Gerald Wendt, N. Y. Herald Tribune Book Review

I agree with everything the above review says. In my opinion, the book The Universe and Dr.Einstein is very interesting. This book shows that the author, Lincoln Barnett, really is an expert in conveying his ideas, I mean, the ideas of Albert Einstein relates with his two popular theory, special and general theory of relativity. Reading this book, as if I am dealing with Albert Einstein himself, who was telling the background of the invention of his theories.

I assumed that the author of this book has conducted an interview with Albert Einstein himself, or at least has been made an intense of communication with Einstein.
    Albert Einstein himself wrote a foreword, and among other he states:
"Lincoln Barnett's book represents a valuable contribution to popular scientific writing. The main ideas of the theory of relativity are extremely well-presented. Moreover, the present state of our knowledge to physics is aptly characterized.

The author shows how the growth of our factual knowledge, together with the striving for a unified theoritical conception comprising all empirical data, has led to the present situation which is characterized-notwithstanding all successes-by uncertainty concerning the choice of the basics theoritcal concepts"

Lincoln Barnett's book has a very important meaning for me, because I’ve found a kind of valid proof about Einstein's theory, which it has not been revealed by others. I’ve found some of logical fallacies of Einstein ideas in the Lincoln Barnett’s book, relating with Einstein’s theory, special and general theory of relativity.

What is logical fallacies? Fallacies are defects that weaken arguments; Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning that invalidate the argument.

A fallacy is an incorrect argument in logic and rhetoric which undermines an argument's logical validity or more generally an argument's logical soundness. Fallacies are either formal fallacies or informal fallacies.These are commonly used styles of argument in convincing people, where the focus is on communication and results rather than the correctness of the logic, and may be used whether the point being advanced is correct or not.

Of course, some errors in reasoning of Einstein, as the founder of theories, make a great impact to the validity of the two theories: Special and General theory of Relativity.

5.Conclusion:

List Of Einstein’s Logical Fallacies

There are at least 5 logical fallacies of Einstein's special and general theory of relativity

1.Einstein’s Thought Experiment: Fallacy Of Composition.

2.The Equivalence Principle: A false equivalence

3.Spacetime: A fallacy of ambiguity or reification.

4.Einstein's Field Equation: Logical fallacy : argumentum ad lapidem

5.Einstein's proving method: The fallacy of ignoratio elenchi, or irrelevant conclusion.

Einstein had no idea of the units and disciplines of measurement as the goal of using mathematics in physics. EFE just a formal mathematical construct with no real physical meaning.

In the book The Universe and Dr.Einstein, by Lincoln Barnett, on page 78, we can read Einstein proposed test for his theory as evidence that Einstein had no idea on the basic of astronomy. Einstein proposed test of general relativity is not scientifically correct and deeply wrong.

Correct illustration should be : the rays are bent down, with the result that image or apparent of star looks higher than it actual of star.

Moreover, as he had written a foreword, he had not realized there is incorrect illustration on page 79, and it shows he does not understand about the effects of deviation of starlight in the real world, for example, when we see the stars in the sky at night. Einstein has no competence in the field of astronomy.

There is no such thing as spacetime or a curve space in the real world.

Second Edition:

There are at least 5 logical fallacies of Einstein's special and general theory of relativity, and this book reveals evidence and reasoning that general relativity doesn't meet the principles of scientific method.

This book try to convey prediction using astronomical test of general relativity at 2017 total solar eclipse, in USA, August 21. This book also shows that astronomical data of 2017 eclipse prove spacetime is false.
