Yeah, Einstein wasn't only a great scientist, but also a very wise man in a philosophical way.

He has some very interesting quotes.

A quote you might like in the context of banks/money, not from Einstein btw.

"Anyone who believes exponential growth can go on forever on a finite planet is either a madman or an economist" Kenneth Boulding.

I'm not challenging you in any way but how do we know the magnetism of the quarks?

If a multiverse exists, and their literally are an infinite amount of different spaces, parallel and alternate, then does that mean that fictional characters exist, or that all things capable of being thought up exist in their own entities? Isn't fiction simply a formula who's laws don't coerce with our own? who's to say that other universes laws have to apply to our own? to say a such thing is rational, but rational isn't always thinking outside the box.

Particles are there because space surrounds the particle. Particles are there because we are looking for them. Not realizing that we are the particle and the space all at once keeps us at war with our nature and each other. This video shows the unity and harmony of particulate patterns working in space, the manifest in the unmanifest.

"Imagination is more important than knowledge" Albert Einstein.

We need imagination, like string theory, to open the doors to more knowledge.

Existing knowledge doesn't create more knowledge by itself, it's not like banks and money.

Great thinkers like Newton and Einstein thought outside the box (of their time). Only imagination can do such a thing, not contemporary knowledge.

:) I wasnt saying imagination wasnt a good thing. it is by far the leading aspect to bring new knowledge and technology. What i was meaning is that it is totally idiotic to pass off theory as fact which is what science has been doing for the past 20 years.

I agree with you that caution is a necessity in things like string theory.

But being philosophical, what do we really know? I see fact as something the vast majority observers observe and agree upon. There is consensus. But maybe the majority is wrong? Fact is a strong word. If something is fact, it cannot be argued, it cannot change.

Maybe some scientists are so convinced that M-theory is right, that they become blinded. But most scientists, in my opinion, are really 'nuanced'.
