It's pretty obvious, Potter, you have no valid concept of what
relativity theory is.

Bluster on, Potter, bluster some more! Froth at the mouth! Whatever!

everybody gets knoledge from great teachers
his original thoaths came from creative inspiration.
math was only the tool to prove he
was in contrast with reality.
his wife help him answering all the letters
of objections from everybody who didnt believe
in this new revolutionary ideas.
he gave his first nobel prize money to her!.

he was NEVER an obstacle to quantum mechanics.
he just had some interesting points that where
deeply filosofic. most of the times he was not so
interested in details but in the deep mysteries
of the universe.

the power of music was with him always
giving him patience and hope.

What Einstein did with his Nobel prize money seems to have been subjected
to Politically correct revisionism. Up until this century, it was thought
Einstein blew it on real estate investments in the United States.

He injected personal bias about how HE thought the universe ought to be
into his "science". He just didn't LIKE the idea of QM and he had no
scientific basis for doing so.

Similarly, Einstein added a cosmological constant to satisfy his own
personal bias and irrational belief that the universe ought to be static
and not contracting or expanding. Then when Lemaitre discovered the big
bang, Einstein ridiculed him for injecting his religion into science!
What a hoot that was! Einstein's hypocrisy was great!

Einstein doubted what he won the Nobel Prize for. He said that in the
end he could not reconcile a particle nature with the wave.

Photons don't exist. Captured light oscillates into mass.

and what more powerful way to prove that his thoughts where
correct than with an new theory of gravity.

he was one of the founders of QM so what could he
posibly care about it, right!

Einstein never ridicule Lemaitre. you are saying that to support
youre very personal views.
when Lemaitre convinced Einstein that the expansion
was a prediction of his theory and with hubble there
with the evidence einstein realise that the cosmos constant
was the biggest blunder of his life.

nobody is perfect.
