Yeah you guys are right about science. But I dont do "we don't prove thing" to deeply. That's a constant and thus cancels out of the equation for both parties. It's a given that we don't know. We don't know for sure, now what do we do? People all too often hide behind "not knowing" to justify inactions leading to great evils. Chosing not to do something is possible choice. CO2 concentration is a great example.-I only mess around with what I don't know to slow me down so that I don't act to fast. I learned that from romansh. Again co2 is a great example. People asked my opinion so I went and learned. of course now "mr know it all" is tossed at me and the convo is over.-But back to falsiability. -ok, I checked it out. Its Funny what you forget. I usually check things when opposed by rational people so strongly. You guys get it, the scientist's method isn't just a process it's a relationship with the search for truth.-lmao, just messing, I couldn't resist.-So I stand firm on my statements but I have to modify it a tad to include the word 'falsibility". More for ease of communication then meaning. It's a philosophical term and to tell the truth when philosophy meets engineering it loses almost every time. I still am anchored in reason using reasonable people doing the best we can with the information we have. -So you guys are correct in the end about the word. But I don't agree with your political angle at all. I must accept the use of the word instead of laughing at it. I looked a few places but wiki summed it ok I think. let me know if it is not good.-wiki:
