This style was customary for fashionable men from the 1660s to the later 18th century for those who could afford this expensive item of personal grooming. Wigs required considerable upkeep as well: a barber to shave the head and to powder the wig, which was replaced or restyled every year."

There's a difference between mentioning a topic in philosophical writings vs. actually writing up a new kinematics that doesn't depend on the existence aether.
Poincaré's *physical* papers never abandoned aether. You can see in his own words that he only imagined in a vague sense what Einstein would rigorously accomplish and thought of it as something someone else would figure out in the future:
>It matters little whether the ether really exists: that is the affair of the metaphysicians. The essential thing for us is that everything happens as if it existed, and that this hypothesis is convenient for us for the explanation of the phenomena. After all, have we any other reason to believe in the existence of material objects? That too, is only a convenient hypothesis; only this will never cease to do so, whereas, no doubt, some day the ether will be thrown aside as useless.
By the loose standard you're trying to go off of, Newton "plagiarized" Aristotle.

Evolution is an important principle that even has application beyond life. Furthermore, earthly life has been there for more than 1/4 of the time the universe exists, that's an astronomical time span. Life has to be included when thinking about the universe as a whole.

Maybe, hypothetically, that scenario never happened and the reason Einstein received a lot of praise and credit for his work is because he deserved a lot of praise and credit for his work. Wow, wouldn't that be crazy? But no, it's always a conspiracy with you contrarian faggots.

>The first animals were born trapped in a spiny bark, but as they got older, the bark would dry up and break. As the early humidity evaporated, dry land emerged and, in time, humankind had to adapt. >The 3rd century Roman writer Censorinus reports "Anaximander of Miletus considered that from warmed up water and earth emerged either fish or entirely fishlike animals. Inside these animals, men took form and embryos were held prisoners until puberty; only then, after these animals burst open, could men and women come out, now able to feed themselves."
>Anaximander put forward the idea that humans had to spend part of this transition inside the mouths of big fish to protect themselves from the Earth's climate until they could come out in open air and lose their scales.
