Does the Higgs Boson Enforce the CCosmic Speed Limit

more exposure to the higgs field -> more mass -> more resistance to acceleration,

not the other way...
We don't seem to be disagreeing. Your train of logic is what I was trying to say minus acceleration increasing higgs exposure. I didn't mean to suggest that accellleration increases mass of and by itself.

the end postulation is that the higgs field is the reason nothing can travel faster than light.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
