> Einstein because he proposed time wasn't absolute...
Einstein’s iconoclastic idea was his questioning of Newton’s occult force. That was Einstein’s starting point. He could not accept that an occult notion acting instantaneously at a distance can exist in nature. He set out to fix this situation by trying to explain gravity without the Newtonian force. Did he succeed in this?
Also when we look back, we see that Einstein was chosen as a product to be marketed as genius to unite the post-war Europe. A German Jew whose theories proved by the observations of a British team etc.
