Talk:Counterexamples to Relativity (view source)
Revision as of 18:10, August 10, 2010
, 18:10, August 10, 2010→Inability of theory to lead to other insights?: new section
There seems to be some confusion on the difference between predicting and allowing. General relativity allows wormholes under some conditions. But a lack of observed wormholes or even a lack of wormholes would not be inconsistent with the theory.

== Inability of theory to lead to other insights? ==
Although this can hardly be considered true, would it be a counterexample to relativity if it were? Couldn't this be a failure of scientists or a testament to the finality of a theory?
