It doesn't ? I was thinking about Lorentz-Transformations where your term approaches 0 when v<<c. But nevertheless special relativity would still apply, only it would be hard to measure.




Consider the limit to this statement... relativity doesn't apply to an object at REST with it's environment yet Newtonian Physics does. An object at rest with it's environment would experience neither time dialation nor length contraction, the hallmarks of relativity.

fastlane: for this to make any sense whatsoever, could you please give your complete definition of "god" ?




Jeesh, no tall order there.

Let's take a minimialist approach: God is a being more powerful than any human that cannot be seen by conventional means (ie EM radiation) and has a lifetime on the order of the lifetime of the universe.

Can we work with that?
