We know that the general theory of relativity is compatible with the existence of space-times in which travel to the past or remote future is possible.
If Keynes was to live for our time, his economic philosophy had to be untangled from the theoretical straitjacket in which he had suffocated it in the General Theory.
The general theory is that at some times in some situations, tax cuts can improve economic health overall and actually improve and people are going to write angry letters to me, I know this.
The irony with the above is that while the General Theory marked Keynes lurch away from Classical School theory, even amid his 1930s and 1940s renaissance (he died in 1946), Keynes still appreciated quality thinking.
And so scientists are testing the general theory not because they think it is wrong but because they are certain it can't be the final explanation just as Isaac Newton's notion of gravitational force was superseded by Einstein's.
If the Supreme Court rules against the general, the head on the block could in theory be the general's rather than Mr Sharif's.

"This means that by watching what happens to the positions of the quasars on the sky as the gravitational field of Jupiter moves past their line-of-sight, the scientists can test other aspects of the general relativity theory, " says Professor Shanks.
Not the least harmful effect of this particular theory is the present isolation of the theory of money from the main body of general economic theory.
Neither Sapir nor Whorf formulated a definitive version of the hypothesis that bears their names, but in general the theory argues that the language we speak actually shapes our experience of reality.
It may be one of the casualties of the auteur theory and the general solemnization of directors that some of the most talented people now just start shooting a script as if big ideas and directorial vision were enough to hold a movie together.
But the same could have been said of the theory of general relativity, and yet satellite navigation, on which we all now depend, would be riddled with inaccuracies without corrections derived from it.
It is notoriously hard to modify the equations of general relativity without damaging the theory beyond repair.
This exploits one of the predictions of Einstein's general theory of relativity: that the path of a beam of light (which is a straight line in empty space) is bent inwards by the gravity of a massive object.
ECONOMIST: Cosmology: I spy with my little gravitational lens | The
Instead of using Newton's theory of gravity to examine why fast-moving stars remain within their galaxies, the pair applied general relativity, Einstein's theory of gravity, to the problem.
He approached Mr. Corbett, then the state's attorney general, with his theory that the New York copy was in fact Pennsylvania's.
One opinion regarding long term contracts with significant dollar amounts tied to them pertains to the theory that general managers and executives will be relieved of their duties at some point by the ball club prior to the conclusion of the contract in question.
At the time Einstein proposed his Theory of General Relativity, it had not been observationally established that the universe was in a state of expansion.
The book reviews the new theory carefully and in language accessible to the general reader, and then subjects it to a detailed empirical examination.
Although Riemann, who died at the age of only 39, also laid the foundations in geometry for Einstein's general theory of relativity, his paper on prime sattracted little attention in the decades after it was first published.
The effect is a direct consequence of Einstein's theory of general relativity which tells us that space is warped by the presence of mass.
BBC: Planck telescope: A map of all the 'stuff' in the cosmos
The principles of game theory, particularly the theory of repeated interactions, proved remarkably useful in formulating general principles of how common resources ought to be managed without necessarily resorting to private or state ownership.
Like the attorneys-general, these cases suffer from the weakness that the insurers can, in theory, claim money only if the tobacco firms are liable for smokers' illnesses (a responsibility that has rarely been established).
There are some important caveats to the chart and the 10-year life cycle theory in general.
FORBES: Apple And Google Seek To Defy 10-Year Smartphone OS Life Cycle
By developing a general theory of equations, Galois provided the definitive solution to the problem.
Mr Rajan's story was intended as a narrative of the subprime crisis in America, not as a general theory of financial dislocation.
The SKA will join the hunt for gravitational waves ripples in the structure of space predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity.
In any case, general relativity directly contradicts quantum mechanics, the other great physical theory of the 20th century, so more and more precise tests need to be carried out to find out what cracks might exist in either theory.
