I have learned that we do not have to to follow the rule of tense agreement with the truth like
"He said that the Sun rises in the east."
But I also have learned that verbs such as think, know, hope, etc must follow the rule of tense agreement like
"I thought you were here."
And then, if we want to say about the truth with the verb, thought, which rule should we follow?
1) I already thought that the earth moves around the Sun.
2) I already thought that the earth moved around the Sun.
I think both are possible and they mean the same. Do you experts agree with me? Thank you so much as always and have a good and safe day.
