Freedom of Science

Doctor of Philosophy Sean Carroll of Cosmic Variance ends his imitation “Crackpot Index”1 with this Doctoral wisdom:
Don’t compare yourself to Galileo. You are not Galileo. Honestly, you’re not. Dude, seriously.
This says so much about Doctor Sean himself and Doctors of Philosophy in general who call themselves physicists.
What does this really mean? Doctor Sean is giving the […]

The standard propaganda for Newtonism goes like this:
Newtonian mechanics is a useful mathematical model for systematizing and predicting observations.
What physicists call Newtonian mechanics is Kepler’s rule expressed with Newtonian labels such as force and mass. Only Kepler’s rule is used in computations. None of the Newton’s labels enter in any astronomical calculations. Therefore, Newtonian mechanics […]

I believe that Cavendish experiment is a crucial experiment which can decide if Newtonian force exists or not. I know that in physics there are no crucial experiments. The reason for this is that physicists have authority over experiments and can define any experiment to be a proof of their Newtonian doctrines. The best example […]

Nature is the official organ of Big Science. Nature Publishing Group which publishes Nature
is a subsidiary of Macmillan Publishers Ltd, a global publishing group founded in the United Kingdom in 1843. Macmillan is itself owned by German-based, family run company Verlagsgruppe Georg von Holtzbrinck GmbH.
Nature covers most sciences but, as proved by its advertisers, it […]

Why do physicists still use a dead language developed in the 18th century? The analog of this would be someone who speaks in King James version with utter seriousness.
In fact this is not correct. Physics is changing continuously. Physics is a new language. No physicist who tried to read Newton’s Principia would understand it.
But this […]

Are mixed proportionalities legal in physics? If you are a physicist with scientific temperament I would like to hear from you.
To me Mass/Radius is a mixed proportionality and it is absurd.
But physicists believe that
F = G (M/r) (m/r)
is a proportionality where G is a proportionality constant.
This famous thing1 is triply absurd.
1. It is absurd to […]

Both Wikipedia and Britannica have pages about the Cavendish experiment. Britannica’s page is a boilerplate copy from textbooks. Wikipedia’s page is informative and it is live like all other Wikipedia content. According to the Britannica page in Wikipedia it takes about 25 years for Britannica to renew its content. In Wikipedia the process of renewal […]

The original paper of the Cavendish experiment was not freely available on the Internet, now it is: Cavendish Experiment of 1798. A bunch of related historical papers are also available.

The goal of Freedom of Science is to transfer Newton’s authority to people. How would we know that Newtonism has fallen? What happened when Aristotelianism toppled? We should expect to see a similar result.
The employees of the Scholastic Corporation are called Doctors. The class Doctor have characteristics shared by all instances of Doctors: Doctors of […]

Cavendish experiment is the crucial experiment which must be used to show that Scholastic Corporation still exists today and it is called physics.
Just like their ancestors refused to look at the Moon through Galileo’s telescope Scholastic Doctors of today refuse to see that Cavendish did not measure the Newtonian occult force.
At first this seems strange. After […]
