36 Objections to Einsteins Theory of RelativityEinsteins Theory of Relativity was published in the year 1905 as the most

general explanation of nature and its phenomenon.

Einstein based his theory on two hypotheses which he referred to as

fundamental hypotheses. The first hypothesis says that optical phenomena are

independent of the conditions in which they occur and the second hypothesis is

about constancy of velocity of light. Both the hypotheses are unverified, irrational

and implausible as the most valid generalized explanation of nature and its

phenomenon. Einstein has no where given reasons in support of his claims about

the two fundamental hypotheses as being the most valid generalized explanations

of nature.

In year 1919 Sir Arthur Eddington of Royal Astronomical Society

experimentally demonstrated mathematically precise gravitational deflection of

light A fact predicted by Einsteins Theory of Relativity. On the basis of this

single piece of evidence, the entire theory came to be accepted as the most valid

generalized explanation of nature without further enquiry and investigation. Soon

physicists elevated it the level of Gospel truth even though they found it too

difficult to understand. All those who were in disagreement with Einstein were

unable to prove their point of view.

This theory is a glaring example of as to how at times one can reach the

right conclusions for wrong reasons.

Einstein and his followers limitlessly extrapolated the two fundamental

hypotheses to Unified Field Theory and even beyond through a series of

unverified, irrational and implausible turns and twists (assumptions and

presumptions). For example Einstein beginning from his two fundamentalhypotheses in his own style mathematically and logically deduced the equation

E=mc2

but actually advocated the famous equation E=mc2

without offering any

explanation as to how m can be equated with m, both being entirely different

physical quantities as per his own derivation. Moreover Einstein did not consider

for a moment that to prove the equation E=mc2, there is no need to rely upon his

two fundamental hypotheses. It can be easily proved using Plancks Law and

de Broglies equation.

It is a historical fact that in the course of unlimited extrapolation of

Einsteins Theory, several physical phenomena were predicted, identified anddefined, at times right predictions for wrong reasons such as mass energy

equivalence, gravitational mass of photons, black holes etc. But Einsteins Theory

has led to a mythology of its own creation such as gravitational collapse of

universe leading to formation of black holes which is quite implausible keeping

properties of matter in view, string theory where strings are beyond human

experience, space time continuum, Geodesic lines etc.

This unlimited extrapolation of two fundamental hypotheses is totally

unwarranted because nature is hierarchically organized and the applicable rules

vary from one hierarchical level to another. Before anything can be accepted as

the most valid generalized explanation of nature, it needs to be shown that it is

valid across the entire natural hierarchy. It has never been shown that the two

fundamental hypotheses are valid across the natural hierarchy.

Again it has never been shown that Einsteins fundamental hypotheses are

valid in non-linear domain. Moreover before accepting Einsteins Theory of

Relativity as the most valid generalized explanation of nature, it needs to be

shown that both the fundamental hypotheses can sufficiently explain all natural

phenomena such as Consciousness, all origins, creations, evolutions, phenomena

of life etc. Therefore Einsteins Theory of Relativity does not provide

comprehensive explanation of natural phenomena.

The author in his book ENCOUNTER OF SCIENCE WITH PHILOSOPHY A

SYNTHETIC VIEW has listed 36 objections to Einsteins Theory of Relativity.

Proponents of Einsteins Theory of Relativity are called upon to meet theseobjections in order to defend their faith and to continue to enjoy their faith and

belief in the same.

The fact is that physicists have, historically, misguided themselves in

believing in existence of mathematic-logically perfect explanation of nature,

cosmos and phenomena of life. Physicists live with the pious hope that one day

they would be able to comprehensively explain nature and its phenomena and on

that day physics would emerge as the most fundamental of natural sciences. So

the so called singularities surprise them and three dimensional space has been

extended to 20 dimensions and they talk about time machine, supergravity and

gravitons- entities beyond human perception, direct or indirect.

Finally, no doubt, mathematics and logic are the best tools in pursuit of

understanding nature and its phenomena but they are limited in their

applicability by nature of interacting entities and the context and this must always

be kept in mind while using these tools.

book Encounter of Science with Philosophy A synthetic view The book begins

from a scientifically valid concept of God and from this humble beginning

embraces the entire cosmic phenomena within its fold.
