Beyond Light Speed: A Tenet Nosce suggestion

[zenmaster]

Experimental error, most likely. For example, bad calculation of distance.

Keep in mind that neutrinos and photons are quite different in how they interact with the local environment. There is effectively more distance for travel when a photon has to propagate through material.

What makes error the most likely explanation?

Because it is the most simple.

Scientific breakthroughs are happening all the time. Nearly a day goes by that I don't read an article that overturns previous dogma.

We can and often do frame knowledge any way we want to feel justified in our desires. One such framing is the depiction of close mindedness in light of new data. When in fact those who came after are most of the time entirely dependent on those who came before.

So why not the speed of light? Kind of sounds fitting for the times.

Many discoveries and current events have been selectively framed as being 'fitting for the times'. This is like the opposite of dogma: the unbridled use of the intuition, pareidolia, masking as open mindedness and insight. Grasping for such confirmations of bias tends to be a form of regressive coping behavior, like a security blanket.

If true, then time will have proven itself to be nothing more than a projection of the mind. Sounds like the perfect paradox to herald a new age.

How would this prove that time is nothing more than a projection of the mind?
