It has been hitherto shown that it is not only quite conceivable, but also necessary, that the relationship of light have a rate at which it occurs. However, this rate does not at all imply the motion of light or that light is an entity that can move or have a speed.
Yet Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity is based on the assertion that, not only is light an entity that has a speed, but also that this speed is the only absolute in the universe, and that all of space and time is relative to this single "speed of light." Especially significant was Einstein's rejection of the notion that any absolute motion could exist aside from the "motion" of light, to which every other motion is relative. Einstein also postulated an idea held by subsequent physics as sacred, that no entity can travel at a faster rate than light "travels."
For refuting the foremost idea, that of the "speed of light" as the only absolute, it will suffice to refer the reader to the entirety of the present treatise up to this point. It has already been shown that all entities must have ubiquitous qualities which are quite absolute and, moreover, prior to and independent of any particular phenomena.
Furthermore, in "The Nature of Motion," it has been shown that not only is all motion absolute, but that the absolutism of motion is a necessary precondition for accurately understanding which entity is actually in motion.
If the position of Entity A changes relative to that of Entity B, say, in that A and B are now closer than before, it still remains to be explained whether A moved toward B, or B moved toward A, since the implications of each answer are almost always quite different from those of the other.
Thus, the DDRR of light, while it may be an important phenomenon, and perhaps indispensable for understanding the behavior of the ubiquitous relationship known as light, is not necessarily a determinant of the other qualities and relationships exhibited by an entity.
An entity´s time, for example, is independent of its motion, or any other physical change it undergoes, even though the concept of time is needed to define and understand motion in the first place.
Similarly is a source entity´s DDRR independent of its other physical qualities and relationships, such as mass, volume, the spatial dimensions, or time and motion, even though light (along with the manifestation of a given DDRR for such a relationship) is needed for human observers to visually perceive entities in the first place.
An entity in the dark, and unperceived, continues to exhibit the same mass as before, provided it was not altered in other ways. It continues to accumulate time uniformly, no matter what else happens to it. Existence exists independent of the observer, and every concept in it ought to have its applications delimited to include only its proper referents.
The DDRR is a tool for explaining the behavior of light and everything pertaining to light. It does not account for anything outside of light and pertaining to the remainder of the universe.
