Did Einstein establish the beginnings of a metaphysics?

For those of you familiar with Special Relativity, it's an exercise in imagination and science. That a thought experiment can reveal much about reality suggests that mind is more than a fundamental tool in arriving at conclusions, but has the power to influence reality. What was once previously believed to be two separate domains have now been blended by metaphysics. 

The beginnings of a metaphysics have now been firmly established for mankind over the last 35 years. Yes, the laws of Physics are invariant in all inertial frames of reference. Light remains fixed to all observers.

It certainly stirs the imagination.

I'm pretty sure Metaphysics can be seen happening about 9,000+/- years prior.
