A new two-metric theory of gravity with prior geometryA theory is presented of gravity which has the same post-Newtonian (PN) as that of general relativity. The field equations, and a calculation of the PN limit of the theory are discussed along with the equations of stellar structure for static spherically symmetric stars. A special exterior spherically symmetric solution, time dependent solutions, conservations, and gravitational waves are analyzed.
