How's the reviewing going for EA?

UPDATE:The theory of Electromagnetic Acceleration is currently being developed and reviewed by members. Once completed, Electromagnetic Acceleration will be used as an alternative  in explaining sunrises, sunsets and horizons for the general model only.

Your very own FAQ states that the bendy light hypothesis has not yet been tested, and it's been under review for pretty much one year, if not more. Yet it is still being used to explain a shitload of stuff.

How's the review process? How much has the hypothesis developed since a year?

I think it's the same that Arther Dent had that "one of his closest friends was from a small planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse and not from Guildford as he usually claimed."
Gone.

Not all FE'ers believe in Bendy Light as currently theorised. Many do not believe that light bends at all. You shouldn't expect such people to defend a theory they don't believe in.

What does believing in a theory have to do with defending it?

Well, it's a strong motivating factor. However, my point is that several FE'ers are openly hostile towards the theory, and are thus unlikely to be found defending it.

Without bendy light theory your flat earth theory would have GIANT gaping holes.

Not a FE'er. As the saying goes, lurk moar.

No doubt, but based on your earlier statement, I was under the impression that you did too =)

Don't have to be a supporter of FE theory to support bendy light theory.

So what alternative hypothesis have you guys come up with besides bendy light? Shine upon us.

Perhaps you should lurk some moar.  :P

Regardless, without bendy light, your FE theory is incomplete.

I suspect it's a bit demoralising trying to defend a theory which predicts effects not observed in the real world.

Yes, but FE needs him to explain certain phenomena, because they cannot.

He's an autistic with no interpersonal skills who views other people as objects for his own amusement.
(Using Parsifail's own logic, this is not an insult because it is true.)
