"Prove" is an extremely loaded word. Everything we think we know about anything is theoretical. Science = "evedence seems to support the hypothesis". Even Einstein may be wrong.

It is important to understand the difference between a law and theory. Laws are WHAT happened. Theories are WHY it happened. Laws are provable. Theories are not.

Name one single "law" that's proven.
replied 2206d
Laws are simply observations of phenomena. Gravity is very easily proven. The theories behind WHY it happens, when/where it applies, etc. are not “proven”
replied 2206d
I do not need to study anything to observe that gravity exists. Science is making itself important to create authorities. Mathematics is the only science that is really useful/proven.

Oh but Physics is mother of all sciences, mathematics is like the language
replied 2205d
Physics is based on Mathematics. How can physics be the mother if it depends on mathematics? Language are letters and words which describe mathematics.

Its other way around, mathematics is language to represent the natural laws, which are laws of Physics.
replied 2205d
Ok I give up you reject logic thinking out of pure stubbornness.
replied 2205d
This is logical thinking, natural law is the rule which is laws of Physics, which is explained with mathematics.

Child needs mother to be born. Nature doesnt need physics. Mathematics doesnt need physics. Physics needs both of them to exist. There you see who is the mother and who is the child.
replied 2204d
Mathematics is a language... it is used to describe natural laws, which is laws of Physics.
replied 2204d
What? Nature is Physics.

Mathematics isn't even a science...

If every piece of matter in the universe doesn't obey it consistently 100% it's a pretty lousy law. The devil's always in the details! That's why we have magic stuff like dark matter.

Exactly. That's why the words "prove" and "law" are just not very helpful. As if the universe obeys the slight electrical impulses in a few groups of atoms on one random planet.
replied 2206d
It's impossible to say that anything will apply to every "piece of matter". The best we can do is define patterns in what we can observe. Many theories involve phenomena that are...
replied 2206d
Most science is not based on observation but on false assumptions and people who believe in books more than in their own ability to think logical. Modern science creates sheeps.

Einstein was especially probably wrong. Remember that Einstein didn't do much science. He did a lot of math and thinking, theorizing connections btwn existing scientific laws.
replied 2207d
Probably wrong, but he is still right until proven wrong. Right now, he is very right
replied 2206d
theory of relativity over time (dropping cosmo. constant, grav waves, etc.). He didn't one day think he figured it all out and write a formula/theory which is yet to be proven wrong.
replied 2206d
Einstein was often wrong, even by his own admission. Such is the nature of working on such complex and ultimately abstract theories. For example, he changed numerous aspects of his...
