"Unfortunately, scientists adore the Minkowski theory because, secretly they detest the 3+1 formula as not entirely objective, since man is the one to add the time; and yet Einstein has shown that there is no universal, or god-given cosmic time, thus making man supreme in the determination of physical reality. So the Minkowski proposal that enables them to pretend (it is only a pretence because it is not true, even Eddington told us so), is preferred. 'S=ct...', as Russell has averred, makes things easy for the mathematicians, but it is not true of the physical world (the same Russell said it is an artefact); therefore the concept of curved space-time and time travel based on it are all bogus science."
