That is no longer the case (it had to do with a recent experiment result
that had neutrinos moving faster than the speed of light), which was
apparently the false result of sloppy work on the part of the researchers
who did not test all their cable connections ... so it appears Einstein is
still good to go.


Until it may be disproved. That was my only real point for bringing that
up (I had not heard more on it).
My point was theories do get disproved, until they do - they get
accepted as truth, though many scientists themselves know that it is not
the case. It is partly what helps the world today have such an ambiguous
definition of reality and truth.

Don't misunderstand. I am not saying humans never understand something.
My opinion is they don't usually - and they don't know when they do or
when they don't so it is called a theory. The best hope is it doesn't
get proven wrong - because, until God tells us - it doesn't get proven
right (meaning there is always a chance it will be disproved). Hence -
faith, thus religion.
