Einstein's theories were falsifiable in multiple ways, with earliest confirming experiments in 1920s. Still, 61 years is within a lifetime. 10k years requires a time machine and makes your proposition pointless. As good as waiting for second coming to see if Bible's right.
- ejolto 6y agoSo back to your original comment > They didn't survive, so not sure what that says. It says nothing because we cannot yet conclude that Homo Sapiens will survive for longer. > Still, 61 years is within a lifetime. 10k years requires a time machine and makes your proposition pointless. Interesting! So when does an experiment become pointless? When it takes a 100 years to prove? 200 years? 500 years? 1000 years? > As good as waiting for second coming to see if Bible's right. That's not the same. The second coming might never happen, Homo Sapiens will go extinct. In a million years, you can conclude which species survived the longest, but you'd probably still by waiting for the second coming.
