- estel 14y agoIt doesn't remove those talks at all, it says that these are factors to consider when trying to determine if a talk is likely to perpetuate a hoax or not. Just because there are exceptions to any of these flags doesn't mean they aren't valid criteria.
- splawn 14y ago"experiments that can be reproduced by others" is just one example of a theory making a prediction, imo. Effects of "macro evolution" (macro vs micro is usually a distinction only made by creationists) have made such predictions. Here is a famous example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanthopan_morgani http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanthopan_morgani
- tokenadult 14y agoThe scientific theory of macroevolution makes a series of interconnected testable predictions, all of which have held up as new natural history discoveries and controlled experiments have been made over the last century and a half. http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/comdesc/ http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/comdesc/
