>I'm not arguing that Einstein's math equations are innacurate. I'm arguing that relativists claims that math is the reality.
That's something that started long, long before Einstein was ever born or relativity was ever conceived of.

There's good reason for that, for starters, that you can make mathematical models that accurately predict observations that you've yet to make, but more importantly, mathematical models are the smallest bits of information that any two individuals can agree upon and still convey to one another in an objective fashion. They are as fine tuned as communicable consciousness gets.

Now, of course, your math can be perfectly correct, and your conclusion still completely wrong, but no one has ever denied that - least of all Einstein, who was challenging perfectly correct mathematical models, with models of his own, and challenging his own on top of that, often disproving both.

Einstein's theories, at least, are mostly observationally verifiable. If you want to get into a theory of physics where it's pure mathematical fantasy in that, by definition, it's unobservable - you need to get into string theory. That's the reason, however, that most scientists laugh string theorists out of the room. A mathematical theory of everything that you can never observationally verify, is essentially meaningless.
