Why is light redshifted in a gravitational field? The journal Nature
explains:

Nature: "Gravity is mercilessly impartial - on Earth, it accelerates
light and heavy objects alike with a tug of 9.8 metres per second
squared."

Yes, the frequency shifts because THE SPEED OF LIGHT SHIFTS, in
accordance with the equation c'=c(1+V/c^2) given by Newton's emission
theory of light (V is the gravitational potential difference between
the point of emission and the point of reception of light). Believers
would not understand the importance of Nature's confession but at
least they could stop singing "Divine Einstein" and "Yes we all
believe in relativity, relativity, relativity", just in case:

No-one's as dee-vine as Albert Einstein
Not Maxwell, Curie, or Bohr!
He explained the photo-electric effect,
And launched quantum physics with his intellect!
His fame went glo-bell, he won the Nobel --
He should have been given four!
No-one's as dee-vine as Albert Einstein,
Professor with brains galore!
No-one could outshine Professor Einstein --
Egad, could that guy derive!
He gave us special relativity,
That's always made him a hero to me!
Brownian motion, my true devotion,
He mastered back in aught-five!
No-one's as dee-vine as Albert Einstein,
Professor in overdrive!

We all believe in relativity, relativity, relativity.
Yes we all believe in relativity, 8.033, relativity.
Einstein's postulates imply
That planes are shorter when they fly.
Their clocks are slowed by time dilation
And look warped from aberration.
We all believe in relativity, relativity, relativity.
Yes we all believe in relativity, 8.033, relativity.
