Answering Some Questions About the ASC & CTC

The Winsome Creationist

Welcome back to the Winsome Creationist podcast! In this episode, Dr. Phil Dennis and I dive deep into the intricacies of relativistic physics and the nature of space-time intervals. Drawing on historical context and Einstein's insights, we dissect the notion of conventionality in measurements and highlight the importance of eliminating coordinates to reach objective conclusions. Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on the true nature of space-time intervals and the quest for a deeper understanding of our cosmos.
