Reality Check

There is a thread on the forum called Logical proof of SRT invalidity started by ozziemate.
IMHO: There are a few things wrong with what he has presented (400 posts and no actual logical proof presented yet!). But I will present one for his education by applying his logic to his pet idea (zero point theory).
Note that this is an idea of his only. There is no mathematics or physics involved in it. Just a web site with pseudo-science language and pretty pictures. The basic premises that he has presented here are:

Note that this is an idea of his only. There is no mathematics or physics involved in it. Just a web site with pseudo-science language and pretty pictures. The basic premises that he has presented here are:
- Light does not travel (distance is zero for light).
- All detectors act exactly as if light travels and report the distance to the source of the light to observers.
- We exist in a 4-dimensional spacetime but light exists a zero-dimensional spacetime and gravity in a 3-dimensional spacetime.
- Assume that light travels (i.e. distance is not zero for light).
- A theory that states that light does not travel is thus invalid.
- Zero point theory assumes that light does not travel.
- Thus zero point theory is invalid.
