| Time "Expert" Simon J. Morley Takes The Coward's Way Out Of Debate With Marshall Barnes, R&D EngIn what can't be referred to as anything else but cowardice, self-proclaimed time expert and author of the book, What Is Time?, backs out of public debate with Marshall Barnes after harassing him on Quora.com
By: Fame Plan That was the last threat sent by author, Simon J. Morley to David Gap, PR rep for internationally followed R&D engineer, Marshall Barnes, who he harassed on Quora.com over Marshall's posting about time and time travel. When it became apparent Morley, who has no credentials or established work in the field of time research, as Marshall, was playing word games and had nothing to support his position that time isn't real, Marshall challenged him to a public debate. Morley accepted and was told due to his being in the UK, the debate would happen on a platform like Ustream or Skype. Then Morley began to get cold feet and sent mcoking emails. "How many times can you refuse to answer a simple, yet crucial question. 20 years of studying time, and you still have no idea what the word means Hahahaha" So with Marshall Barnes' permission, David Gap has released below a good portion of the email exchange. How the harassment started can be seen at https://www.prlog.org/ On 19 Sep 2017 03:13, "David Gap" wrote: Dear Mr. Morley: When Marshall told me what a "effing idiot" you are, I didn't believe it. Now you have more than convinced me. Marshall has an extensive track record on his definition of what time is, he's even stated it plenty of times on Quora. You have already agreed to the debate. You know the penalty for backing out. In addition, the purpose of the debate would be to see whose definition is the correct one and if you both agreed to the same definition, then of course there wouldn't be any purpose of a debate. Let me put it to you in clear, concise language. You're an idiot. You've stacked out a position that you can't defend unless someone agrees with you first, which proves you have little more than a tenuous hold on the understanding thereof. A debate where both parties agree is certainly no debate and which proves you're afraid to lose. The purpose of the debate is to determine who is right. The topic of the debate, is *the nature of time* which you claim you have a complete understanding of. You've even written a book about it - a stupid one, from what I've read on Amazon. It sounds like you don't really know what you're talking about, which is something Marshall has said. You think you're correct because you've never had to face someone credentialed that knows better. You can do what you want - but it's all on the record - you accepted and now you act like you want to back out. Make up your mind. You've lost in either case. If you back out, Marshall will make a mockery of you and if you debate, he'll slaughter you and then make a mockery of you anyway. So just skip the inane attempts at insults and protests. Are you in or are you are coward? Personally, I'm betting on coward, though I hope you're not. I really want to see you get destroyed when you have to answer questions live, even if it's just online... - David Gap Sent: Monday, September 18, 2017 at 7:23 PM From: "Simon J Morley" To: "David Gap" Subject: Re: ['What is Time?' - the mystery solved] Contact As I have already said ( though you have an astonishing shortfall in listening skills) I have no interest in any debate UNTIL YOU PROVIDE A CAST IRON, BONA FIDE, DEFINITION OF TERMS I.E.WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHEN YOU USE THE WORD TIME!!!. Concise, unambigous definition that we both agree on. Simple as that. I suspect you can't. I wont hold my breath.

You'll be contacted as preparations develop. - David Gap Simon: Obviously, I'm not scared of you. I'm the one challenging you to a *public debate*. Remember? There is no need to hide behind pretense here. The debate subject is the nature of time - which you claim to have the exact answer for and my position is clear - on the nature of time and the fact that you're a moron and a damn liar. I'll prove both at the debate and show you the same mercies Achilles showed Hector at the walls of Troy. You will be informed of the scheduling and event details which will be summer of next year due to my heavy schedule, as originally stated. I'm going to enjoy destroying your arguments, logic and you, in front of a live audience. You'll be done like a dog's dinner. I'd feel sorry for you but you've bent over backwards proving that you're going to deserve every bit of it and more...
