the theory of relativity is a set of mathematical relations showing that mass and energy come from equivalent space curvatures that can appear differently in different observational situations[1][2].Here is a list of 15 counterexamples to the validity of the theory:

  1. The eccentricity of the Moon's orbit is increasing contrary to the theory of relativity.[3]
  2. The Pioneer anomaly[Citation Needed].
  3. The universe shortly after its creation, when quantum effects dominated and contradicted Relativity.
  4. The action-at-a-distance by Jesus, described in John 4:46-54 and Matthew 27:51.
  5. Newly observed data reveal that a fundamental constant of physics, α (alpha), actually varies throughout the universe, demonstrating that all inertial frames of reference do not experience identical laws of physics as claimed by Relativity.[4]
  6. The double star "W13" weighs "40 times as much as the sun—more than enough to form a black hole. However there is a speculative theory to explain this [5]
  7. The uniformity in temperature throughout the universe.[Citation Needed]
  8. "According to Einstein’s view on the universe, space-time should be smooth and continuous" but observations instead show "inexplicable static" greater than "all artificial sources of" possible background noise.[Citation Needed]
  9. "The snag is that in quantum mechanics, time retains its Newtonian aloofness, providing the stage against which matter dances but never being affected by its presence. These two [QM and Relativity] conceptions of time don’t gel."[6]
  10. The theory allows wormholes just as it allows and predicts black holes, but wormholes violate causality and permit absurd time travel.[7]
  11. The theory predicts natural formation of highly ordered (and thus low entropy) black holes despite the increase in entropy required by the Second Law of Thermodynamics.[Citation Needed]
  12. Relativity requires that anything traveling at the speed of light must have mass zero, so it must have momentum zero. But the laws of electrodynamics require that light have nonzero momentum.[Citation Needed]
  13. Based on Relativity, Einstein claimed in 1909 that the aether does not exist, but in order to make subatomic physics work right, theorists had to introduce the aether-like concept of the Higgs field, which fills all of space and breaks symmetries.[Citation Needed]
  14. It is impossible to perform an experiment to determine whether Einstein's theory of relativity is correct, or the older Lorentz aether theory is correct. Believing one over the other is a matter of faith.[Citation Needed]
  15. In Genesis 1:6-8, we are told that one of God's first creations was a firmament in the heavens. This likely refers to the creation of the luminiferous aether.
