How the STc principle (special relativity) puts both the arrow of time and a common present moment on a firm physical basis.

Liz states that "Special relativity shows that there is no such thing as a "common present moment". but this is incorrect. Actually special relativity shows exactly the opposite. In my book I explain how this works. It is well known, though little understood, that everything without exception c

is tight, exact and meaningful. One doesn't need to know everything about reality to define it meaningfully as everything that exists. Thus defining God as Reality is well defined and meaningful. It's the only rational choice IF you need a God. Edgar On Monday, December 23, 2013
