This statement made in an explanation of addition of velocities shows
the confusion existing in the minds of scientists about velocity of
light.
"The constancy of light (Einstein's dictum) tells us that the velocity
of light in the forward direction is equal to the velocity of light in
the backward direction, i.e. �CF = CB = C."

Where did you find that crappy statement?

Relative to a set of coordinates S, if a photon is traveling on the x
axis in the +x direction, it has a velocity of c. �If a photon is
traveling on the x axis in the -x direction, it has a velocity of
(-c). �Scientists do not seem to be aware that the Lorentz equations
automatically resolve the velocities of photons

You are really funny :-)

because c is always
squared in those equations, and the velocity of a photon is only shown
implicitly in the variables x and x'. �Einstein's own equations for
velocity of light do not work in the Lorentz equations if x or x' are
negative.

Great nonsense. :-))

The equations x=ct and x'=ct' should have been �x=wt and
x'=wt', where w is the velocity of light.

I think that you have given that crap before...

Well, Harald, if you have nothing to say, why pretend that you do?
You can either say something or not. If not, then why waste the time
of others with your little snippets of pretense?
If you see something you can disprove, by all means go ahead and
disprove it. Being part of a great Religion dedicated to worship of
the distance contraction is not going to impress me. The distance
contraction is not going to save one soul.
