Talk:Counterexamples to Relativity (view source)
Revision as of 16:26, December 4, 2011

Response to the above: the list is of "counterexamples". These are examples that are counter to the theory. Other terms, like "paradox" or "anomaly", capture neither the concept of "example" nor of it being "counter" to the theory. The term "paradox" arises in philosophy, but this isn't philosophy. Relativity is a theory that pretends to be correct in every case, but it isn't.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 01:24, 3 December 2011 (EST)

::Fair enough. I hate to remove the paradoxes completely, so I've added them to the main relativity article (and expanded on them a little). But I absolutely agree a paradox is not a counterexample, and hence shouldn't be here. --[[User:QPR|QPR]] 11:26, 4 December 2011 (EST)
