Is viXra the worst example of hypocrisy in the known universe?


Recommended Posts

I read that Philip Gibbs claimed to have set up viXra to provide a platform where people who lacked the necessary credentials to publish on arXiv could establish priority for their work. By all accounts viXra will indiscriminately publish the most absurd of crackpot nonsense, so imagine my dismay when I tried to publish my scholarly paper containing the most beautiful integral equation in physics “E=MC² AND THE FROGTON UNIVERSAL FORCE LAW”, only to receive this merciless rebuttal:

Dear Isaac Frogton,

Your submission cannot be processed because pseudonym is not allowed and one should not name a law under his own name whether real or fictitious. Both these actions are not within the scholarly norm.

Please be kindly guided. Any future non-compliant submission or replacement will be rejected without further notice.

Sincerely,

viXra Admin

 

Does anybody else feel that this is the most depraved example of scientific censorship since the banning of Galileo's book?
