In GR falling bodies can reach light speed.
In SR this is an impossibility.
It has set the speed limit to below light speed.

Guess what? SR is right.
It's GR that must reconcile with SR.

Why has GR passed all tests so far succesfully?


Because it is only a limiting case. How do you like that?



This blatant contradiction must be seen for what it is:
an error.


So far, the contradiction is only an assertion.

The assertion is derived from the Special Theory and is to
be applied to the General theory.
If you say no then you are admiting that matter moving at light
speed is no problem.

You have to be in denial to retain this belief. It's an error.
And I am pointing it out.

Remember the thread "There is only one Gravity". It's there where they
recommend the site http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/RelWWW/undergrad.html .
There is even a site which doesn't rely that much heavily on math.
And if you got problems with the math i'am sure some people on this site
including me will help you. But stop posting **** and DO your homework!

I don't bother to do other peoples idea of homework. I'll do it my way.

So you refuse to learn?

Oh, BTW, when will you answer *my* post?


I will not be blinded by education.

Why on earth do you think that education would *blind* you?!?


It is a miracle attesting to Einstein's genius
that he was able to survive his education.

You have no clue what you are talking about.


But I'll tell you that there is a principle in Special Relativity that
needs to be applied to General Relativity. That is that matter cannot
reach
the speed of light by being accelerated. This has to apply to freefall
as well.
Freefall in GR reaches light speed in black holes.

Why do you think so?


I do not believe in today's black holes.

Then what are the objects which astronomists have found out there, which
show lots of signs of being really black holes?


They are the failure of GR istelf.

So, on the one hand, you call Einstein a genius, but on the other, you
say that his theory fails?
