Lol I was abbreviating my answer so I didn't write a whole chapter on the subject. I was attempting to underline that in science, when a theory can be reproduced and verified by other parties it can be reliably counted as a truth. On the other hand, (only [b]one[/b] example) the theory some religions have of 'prayer' and god/gods hearing and acting on it [u]can not be proven either way[/u]. This applies to the OP question as a supporting argument. However, if you have a different opinion/theory/hypothesis I would be happy to hear it. Note: I'm of the opinion that if you can't understand me, I haven't explained myself properly. I would appreciate if your non-comprehension manifests in the form of a question, not taking a tiny portion of my post and making a rash and general assumption. Assumptions are a sign of sloppy logic.

    That whole post was not necessary. My reply wasn't a product of misunderstanding, it was just that your statement was blatantly false and I pointed it out. There's no need to go on a tangent.

  • [quote]your statement was [u]blatantly false[/u] and I pointed it out.[/quote] Care to correct me? I'm all for learning. What's your idea of a scientific theory?

    I don't have a subjective idea of a scientific theory. Just the definition. "A well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of knowledge that has been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experimentation."
