I suspect some of us are forming new beliefs of time/space, let's look at Einstein back in his day. Do you think the masses understood what he was talking about when he would discuss E=mc2, or any of his other observations? I would suspect most would just say "Oh that crazy Albert"

I'm only offering a perspective...
So would you suggest we dispense with it (time/space)?

How do you know how animals percieve things?

Einstein's theory has been up for question lately. It's a theory too.
