I would love to just sit down with some "Einsteins" & "Hawkins' "in this world and pick their brains!!!! now THAT would be cool !!!!!

.....how and does it relate to the Einstein's string theories?

Gravity bends space-time, but magnetic fields do not. There is no equal and opposite reaction. Reality itself cannot react to a force. That's what space-time is....it's our reality or Universe.

Gravity does warp space-time according to relativity, but magnetic fields do not, as far as I know.
Gravity is an equal and opposite force in that it is not only the Earth pulling on the Moon, the Moon pulls on the Earth too. That causes the tides.

Gravity is the attraction between objects. It has nothing to do with magnetism. It is possible that time and space bend. We can see this as light has a slight curve as a it passes by planets. This could also be because of the physical (Photon) properties of light. But it could be possible.

Gravity affects the the time means the reality which we live in so time is not a force or particle so it cant exhibit phiysical properties newton stated on other hand there is no visible effect on space time by magnetic fields.

First of all, gravity and electromagnetism are two completely different forces - they aren't equivalent. Gravity distorts space and time, electromagnetism doesn't.
I bet a lot of your questions could be answered by a local physics prof - if you're really interested, try finding a night class in physics at a local community college or technical school. Or astronomy. It's cool stuff!

Yes that would be a safe assumption, look at the records of magnetic field experiments done on the navel ship the USS Eldrige.

Not sure of your question but I will try. Matter "tells" space-time how to bend and space-time in turn "tells" matter how to move. If you are referring to the idea that space-time is trying to unbend, I would have to say yes. For instance, the sun warps space-time while it itself is moving within the giant space-time warpature of our galaxy. As the sun moves so does the warpature along with it meaning that the previous area of space-time it just left became unbent. If it didn't, all material objects would leave space-time furrough like trails behind as they moved through our universe. Remembering that motion is relative by the way and that if any trace in the space-time were caused by motion would by definition be labeled as "absolute motion" and be in stark contradiction to the whole concept of relativity of motion that we observe in our universe...

At this point, what you are speaking about is theoretical.
We have come up with this theory to try and explain some
observed phenominon. As with any theory, it would be
foolish to assume that this theory is pure, and complete, or
even correct.

Strong fields "bend" space&time, because they're primary manifestations of it; if space &time "is bended", that is the strong fields are distorsioned.

the fact iz that space-time actually elastic ,so light also bends.................time machine haz been theoriacally designed base on this theory !!
