[quote user="sfcouple"][quote user="Bucyrus"][quote user="sfcouple"] Science has always been about developing a hypothesis that may eventually evolve into a working theory.   Theories are not written in granite, they get changed all the time as we acquire more knowledge.  ... a Scientific Theory has to be falsifiable--- a theory has to have the potential of being proved false, in order for it to be considered a scientific theory).Wayne  [/quote]Yes, but not this theory.  If somebody comes forward with new information that challenges this theory, they will be told that the debate is over. [/quote]Not necessarily, at least in the scientific community.  Theories are always being challenged, modified and changed---it is the very essence of scientific research.  Wayne  [/quote]I hear what you are saying about the discipline of science.  And maybe the scientific community is as open-minded as that discipline demands.  But nearly all news media and politicians are telling us that the debate is over.  I have heard it a hundred times.  They tell us that it is settled science or a scientific consensus, and therefore, there can be no challenge to the theory.  They brand skeptics as deniers, hoping to stigmatize them with all the sinister baggage that word implies.  That does not sound like science to me.You say the theory of MMGW has been challenged and always been shown to be correct.  But is it shown to be correct based on a scientific refutation of the challenge, or is it shown to be correct by the declaration that it is beyond questioning?
