General relativity has withstood perhaps its toughest challenge to date.
The theory, which Albert Einstein published in 1916, revolutionized our understanding of physics and the cosmos. It explains gravity as a consequence of space-time's flexibility: Massive objects warp space-time, creating depressions around which other bodies orbit.
Scientists have put general relativity to the test repeatedly over the past 105 years, trying to find situations or circumstances in which it comes up short. They have not yet found one.
In a new study, researchers report the results of one of the most ambitious and involved challenges to general relativity ever undertaken. They analyzed observations of a double-pulsar system made by seven different radio telescopes around the world from 2003 to 2019.
All seven of the tested predictions were borne out, the study found. So general relativity remains undefeated — but that doesn't mean that researchers should stop trying to find cracks in it.
"General relativity is not compatible with the other fundamental forces, described by quantum mechanics. It is therefore important to continue to place the most stringent tests upon general relativity as possible, to discover how and when the theory breaks down," co-author Robert Ferdman, a physicist at the University of East Anglia in England, said in the same statement.

What if Adam and Eve had access to other earths and other dimensions but because of sin, they became stuck in one time direction.
For the creation was subjected to futility*, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God.

really makes you wonder about things think daja vu
if this were true that the past present and future existed all at the same time than there is no such thing as free will.
if the future exists right now than nothing i do matter as it will play out as it infinity has and always will.
i don't believe that, every choice we make can set us on a new path, or maybe that's the trick..
scary to think we might be like a cosmic VHS

I do like that one. That we are in fact eternal beings. The entire universe is one eternal cycle. Everything we do we have done it before because once the universe ends it starts exactly the same because the ending and the beggining is the same.
And this is why there are some people who can see the future.... well, the past xD
What if Psychics are just remembering what happened last loop.
P.S. To put it in a perspective if you are given a choice and you make it yourself, if everything was exactly the same you will make the exact same choice and thus there is absolutely no free will no matter what you chose because in the same exact scenarion with the same exact mindset and knowledge you will always , always do the same.

Here is something to think about: When we die and the universe ends this loop and starts anew and everything happens the same exact way, we are born again the same exact people. We don't remmember anything because the information from our previous life is already erased. Its like a pc reset. Its the same exact pc, it does the same exact things but it has been reset and missing all the memmory.
Havent you had this weird irk when you had your first memmory after or while being born?
And after all of this: I do think this is way more possible explanation than this imaginary "time"

Regarding the Block Universe theory, here we have a derivation from Special and General Relativity.
It means that Relaivity is a part of the following theory, that also may explain non barionic dark matter.
