History and Science
#41
Quote:Please re-read Einstein's quote
"No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong."

Theories aren't proved by any number of experiments. They can be DISPROVED by just one. A theory thay passes a finite number of experiments isn't proved for there is no guarantee that the theory will fail the next experiment. So all we think we know about the universe is plausible but not proved, certainly it is not proved the way a math theorem can be proved true. But to think that all we know is unfounded and downright false is irrational. Indeed I suggest you now reread Feynman quote
"UFOs are better explained in terms of the known irrationalities of terrestrial beings rather than by any unknown rationalities of extraterrestrial beings."

Three is the smallest statistically valid number of results. Try applying a Chi squared test to Bede :wink:
