I see. This thread started with me asking for a way to falsify a hypothesis (CO2 being major cause of the greenhouse effect; we wandered a little too far to global warming). You only provided a trivial reply ("just show that the data the hypothesis was derived from is invalid") and now you throw some generic statements. I don't see how further discussion with you here would lead to anything constructive.
- omginternets 10y agoThe reason we gave you a trivial example of how to falsify the claim is because the claim is trivial to falsify. The fact that it hasn't been falsified doesn't mean that it's true, just that it's amenable to scientific inquiry. Anything you might claim now is (at best) shifting the goalpost. However, if you'd like to submit another claim, I'd be happy to share my thoughts on it's falsifiability; maybe you have a less trivial one than "CO2 is a causal force in global warming" ?
