Einstein Wasn't All That. (Score: -1, Troll)

Every element of E=m(c^2) can be found in the work of Einstein's predecessors.

Einstein gets credit for being the first to line up all the elements correctly but he wasn't the one who identified the mathematical elements - energy, mass, and the speed of light as a mathematical constant were introduced into the narrative by others whom do not receive anywhere near as much credit as they should.

Einstein was not a genius.

He wasn't no saint, either.

He has a great Jewish press corps, though, and they just won't fuckin' shut up ... 'cuz Einstein's tattered reputation helps prop up their fading ethnic propaganda about being God's Chosen, the best and the brightest the planet has to offer.

Note that none of the people listed in that chronology are Jewish - EXCEPT for Einstein - and some say his wife did all the heavy lifting in that relationship.

But even if she DIDN'T do all the heavy lifting ... neither did Einstein ... most of the heavy lifting came from his predecessors.

Please quit beating that dead horse and let others share the limelight.
