We used to assume the bolded part. Then experiments showed that the above wasn’t true so we changed our ideas about time. We determined that light is the thing that’s constant, and time bends around light. General Relativity further extends this idea. It is not simply time that bends around light, but space also bends around matter, which is what we call gravity. You see how experiments changed our beliefs?

This is ridiculous. Experiments show that time **does **bend in space. In contrast to scripture, I cannot argue with a religious person about Islam. It is literally in their belief to consider someone who is an atheist to be someone they should avoid. That is not being open to change. That is the opposite of scientific discourse.

Now you are sounding like someone who believes in scripture. Because my questions are logical. Any scientists will admit openly our views of the world are dependent on our understanding of it no? And more importantly the equipment we build to conduct our experiments are based on those assumptions and views. There is always a possibility that our theories do not hold up when there are a new scientific break through correct?

I mean the whole discussion on atoms, molecules and quarks has been rewritten over time to remove elements and add elements corretc? Higgs boson till a few years ago was a belief and not a fact.
