Those are standard and have to be put up legally. From what i know about [sungazing], there are no actual health risks, i have a brother who is into alternitive medicine etc and he's been into sungazing for a while. You don't do it for long, the idea is that you only do it for a few minutes (or even seconds) each day. The idea is that it replaces food and drink and is a source of energy.
Moonlight is the opposite - it is destructive. Hence why their is folklore about lunar effect if you look at it. The word lunacy comes from ancient times when the moon was thought to cause mental problems.
[Unless you think our eyes damage themselves through their own emissions, this shows vision comes from light entering the eye, not vice versa.]
There are many other lights,
however there is no evidence actually that light travels.
[In any case, emission theory and sungazing don't seem to have anything to do with the speed of light being infinite, which I think was your original claim? We have measured the speed of light and its not infinite, so I'm not sure where you're going with this.]
The speed of light is a theory based on the theory of relativity, which attempts to connect space and time.
The theory of relativity though is just a theory.
Theories are not fact. Anything with theory in it's name is not proven most notebly: the theory of evolution.
I could invent a theory now i.e the theory that the sky is yellow, so the ''Yellow Sky Theory''. Obviously this doesn't make it a fact, it's just theoretical.
Most evolutionists though have a hard time understanding what is fact and what is theory or assumption, speculation etc. They can't distinguish between the two, and so they think evolution and any other science theory which has a considerable amount of support is a fact when it isn't.

What nonsense!
Sun light can not substitute food as an energy source for our bodies. Full stop!

This idiot believes we see through emission from the eyes, not through incoming light. While the original thread questions him on a lot of points, no one asks the obvious question -- if we see through emission from the eyes, why do we need flashlights at night?

Ok genius, where does moonlight come from?

- Having read your other posts, you'll pardon me if I am a bit reluctant to take medical advice from you.

"They can't distinguish between the two, and so they think evolution and any other science theory which has a considerable amount of support is a fact when it isn't."
You were almost there. A scientific theory explains the facts because of all of the support to back it up. So close and yet so far.

You aren't a plant. You cannot photosynthesize. All you're going to end up with is blindness.

It's based on an actual measurement. Laser measurement, police radar and the whole GPS system are based on knowing that the speed of light isn't infinite.

You might get both Vitamin D and severe retina damage from even a quick look at the sun.
You are not a plant (probably) so you do not get nutrition from sunlight.
Post again if you are green and have chlorophyll.

He's welcome to try. He might learn something about testing scientific theories, at least.

I get so annoyed that people, even ones who aren't batshit insane like Cassiterides, can't seem to understand what "scientific theory" means...
Protip: It has nothing to do with "not being proved". It's almost the opposite, actually. The word people talking about unproved stuff are looking for is "Hypothesis".

While other people have addressed the content of your post, I would like to get to the root of the matter and simply ask: just how severely retarded are you?

Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts do not go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's, but apples did not suspend themselves in mid-air, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from apelike ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other, yet to be discovered.

Dawkins must be livid. Imagine having your whole scientific career discredited by someone who shares 99.6% of his genome with a potato.

Actually, there *is*
such evidence.

Have you ever used a fucking flashlight? That alone demonstrates that light travels. How can anyone possibly be this fucking stupid andyet still remember how to breathe or form a semi-coherent sentence?

Here's evidence that light travels; the fact that you are able to see.

There is much much more evidence but morons like you need pictures.
Now shut up and go away.
