Urbain Le Verrier, the man whose math found Neptune, slaved for years with the aid of a reasonable staff to find an explanation for Mercury's orbit. Despite endless efforts he never came up with a solution better than "asteroids inside Mercury's orbit."
Since you are, by your own admission, too lazy and too poorly educated to DO THE MATH needed to challenge relativity, why not go for a real-world, pragmatic option? If you can FIND the asteroids or a super-dense Planet Vulcan in an orbit inside Mercury's then you'll have solid proof that the relativistic equations used to plot out Mercury's orbit have to be wrong, because you'd have found the masses needed to make Mercury conform to Newtonian physics.
All that takes is a telescope and the appropriate sunglasses to avoid burning your retinas to a crisp while trying to find asteroids in a transit across the Sun.
Do it. Find Vulcan. Since you refuse to do any math, it's your best bet for challenging Relativity. I doubt anyone has even LOOKED for Vulcan in 100 years!
It’s not so easy
If the ruler is stretching not only the distance to the sun is smaller, the circumference of Mercury is also smaller.
The point is, do you really believe that the circumference distance of Mercury REALLY is smaller, OR do you believe that the ruler of mercury is just different...
Comrade, do you really believe a certain distance can be schizophrenics
Or in other words, - do do you really believe your ruler is a invariant?
Before you think you understand this discussion, be honest to your self, - now make clear to your self, - is the ruler....
a.) a variant
b.) an invariant
The different understanding of these option, is essential, - according to how you can understand the universe.
Simple Logic, - a simple thought experiment, - clearly tells you that; - that the ruler is a variant and therefore distances of the orbit of mercury and the rest of the universe is not multi - multi – multi schizophrenics...
Which mean Mercury is NOT following a different path, - BUT the way physic work on Mercury is just different......
Now, - Let me know your choose, is at a OR b ?
Then we can discuss further or better give up....... and better ask in the kindergarten for help-..
