According to special relativity, if two objects A and B are many lightyears apart, and A starts moving towards B, for object A, the "present" is object B's "future."

What implications does relativity have with regards to determinism? Does the future already "exist"?

Yes.

'Kay. Is determinism true then?

>>944029
Yes.

Relativity is bullshit.

It's a concocted myth that goes against reality.

This is bait, right?

Not to a tenth dimensional being.

Okay, just checking whether you were that retarded.

Actually none, unless you have something moving faster than light, in which case everything gets fucked. The crucial idea is the difference between timelike intervals and spacelike intervals. "Now" is different depending on your frame of reference, true, but it's always spacelike for everyone.

Pretty devastating ones, actually. And you don't need lightyears of distance for this effect to matter, bear in mind that EVERYTHING you see is "in the past" to you but "in the future" to someone not yet in sight.

Objective truth exists.

Deal with it you marxist retards.

Think of time in terms of lego, not a story or stopwatch.

I'm an atheist, but no way a Christian is that retarded. You're a falseflagger.

Explain how reletevisitc transformations work then if they apparantly don't.

>>944014
It's frames of reference.
>>
Note that just because an object is "in the future" doesn't mean there's a break with physics, you can transform from one referential to the other just fine and trying this from an "objective" position is just introducing a third referential.

Put in different words, you can't obtain information faster if uou talk to an observer in movement

Daily reminder that relativity and subjectivity has been debunked by C.S. Lewis.

>determinism isn't real
It is as long as effects follow their causes. Everything that happens is caused by what happened before it.

daily reminder that C.S. Lewis is a cuck who still worshipped Jesus after acknowledging that Jesus had made a failed prophecy

Physics degree here. The answer is none.

Look up the Bell inequalities if you're interested in determinism. Basically the universe can't be deterministic unless it's SUPERdeterministic. Which it probably isnt.

you obviously don't know what dark energy is
