This is fun. I am looking forward to their explanation. A sundial is just a
clock that ticks once per Earth rotation.
I've already given you the explanation, you moron.
....and it's one off the funniest things I've ever heard. I'm still laughing.

Relativists seem to think so.

Does your brain work anywhere?
===========================
Does your neuron work anywhere, you STOOOPID flaming arsehole?
None of these silly buggers can find an answer...the simple sundial exposes
Einstein's bullshit...hahahhahhahhahhaa!

I've given you the answer .. and the answer is that it 'runs' slower,
not faster, than a correct clock at the same location.
What is a 'correct clock', dopey?
On that ticks at the rate of 1 second per second . Gees, you don't
even know what it means for a clock to be correct .
With all respect, the assertion "1 second per second" does not convey
any information at all. In the context we are debating here, a correct
clock is simply any device with a periodic change of state and that
can be used to measure the unique “time” corresponding to some
“stationary (inertial) system” as defined by 1905 Einstein in his
first Relativity paper.

[snip androcles showing he doesn't have a clue what relativity says]
Nothing left
xxein: Science is still there but Einstein didn't understand it
either. Relativity does not explain the physical. It only explains
the math used to make a prediction with made-up conjectures to make it
sound complete to the novice.
