Einstein was wrong.

Do you think that the Theory of Relativity is incorrent and that Einstein was in fact wrong? One of the things I find the most unbelievable is the thought that time is being warped. I believe time is an illusion created by man to keep track of things. You can't bend or alter what is not there.

If you have a thought experiment, (and, let's be honest, you DO have to be imaginative to create or grasp this stuff), and that notion is then verified experimentally via scientific method, to be even more precise than Newtonian kinematics (itself a great big thought experiment which worked for what everybody needed it to work for), then obviously it was a pretty good thought experiment. 

You could say the same thing about quantum theory.  If memory serves, the difference is that there's never been an experiment which quantum theory didn't predict accurately within its framework.
