    Is this a THEORY or a LAW? Either way, it's wrong.

    I get so annoyed with people who think they know it all because they spent five minutes on Wikipedia.

    Gravity is just a theory afterall....

    I don't believe in gravity. I simply choose to stay on the ground because I'm afraid of heights.

    In science, BOTH theories AND laws could be shown to be wrong at some time if there are data to suggest it. THERE IS NO HEIRARCHY WHATSOEVER between theories and laws in science.


    EDUCATE YOURSELVES.

    Theories + lots of time = laws.

    Science never discounts the possibility of being wrong. They can, however, make very educated guesses about things they have been right about for awhile.


    WRONG


    THEORIES AND LAWS ARE DIFFERENT ANIMALS YOU UNEDUCATD FOOL. THEY ARE DIFFERENT ANIMALS THAT SERVE DIFFERENT ROLES.

    Too bad he left before being called out on misspelling 'UNEDUCATED'

    WHAT I SAID IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE AMONG GENUINE SCIENTISTS.


    IN SCIENCE, LAWS ARE NOT IMMUTABLE. THAT IS NOT EVEN A PROPERTY OF A LAW.

    Once again:


    LAWS COULD CHANGE JUST AS EASILY AS THEORIES. A LAW COULD CHANGE TODAY GIVEN NEW DATA, REALIZATION OF PAST MISTAKES, OR NEW GAINED PERSPECTIVES.



    HOWEVER, THIS DOE SNOT MEAN THAT A LAW IN QUESTION IS NCECESSARILY WRONG.



    LAWS IN SCIENCE ARE NOT-NOT-NOT- IMMUTABLE. THIS IS NOT-NOT-NOT- EVEN A PROPERTY OF A LAW.


    TOO MAY MISINFORMED IDIOTS ON THE INTERNET ERRONEOUSLY BELIEVE THAT LAWS CANNOT CHANGE OR CANNOT BE WRONG.


    COMPLETELY UNTRUE.

    We can never discover the absolute truth - we can only get closer to it.
