Good post and well put together, though I do have some points of contention I would like to throw your way.

"In a basic term, energy is that property which must be transferred to an object so as to perform work on it or heat it up. Energy cannot be created but can change form.">>>>>This describes what energy can do, but does not describe energy at all. There is a big difference.

"The most common form of energy is the kinetic and potential energy.">>this is not true. The most common form of energy is within the electromagnetic spectrum, in fact since electromagnetism covers all the various forms of energy from radio waves to x-rays, it is the most common form of energy. Potential energy is not energy. It defines a situation where there is the potential for energy. Similarly, potential profits are not real profits, you can spend real profits.

Energy is still relatively unknown which is why the best most can do is describe what it is capable of and not so what it is. Electromagnetism, which as I mentioned covers all fields and frequencies of the spectrum is technically the most common form of energy, as well, it offers us a clue as to what energy is. It is field perturbations, ie; electric field and magnetic fields oscillating at right angles to one another thus suggesting that at its simplest energy is motion.

While it is claimed by the standard model bearers that light is a constant in a vacuum, the truth is that every year they measured it, it would be different. Eventually, through consensus, they decided to call it a constant even though it technically isn't. Light is of course just one thin sliver of the em spectrum, so when we say the speed of light, what we actually mean is the rate of induction of electromagnetism.

Peace
