Re: Possible Limits On Human Life-span?
quote:
If science cannot prove something true or false, then it is known as theory,
​
I would first suggest you learn what a scientific theory is.
​
A theory is an explanation of a set of related observations or events based upon proven hypotheses and verified multiple times by detached groups of researchers..
It has nothing to do with true, false or proven.
​
Besides that, did your post even have a point? I have read it four times now and I have no clue what your point is.

Re: Possible Limits On Human Life-span?
"The knowledge of the infallibility or fallibility of a phenomenon is not as crucial as the discipline of being unbiased to either side."
​
I have not been unable to find this quote anywhere also. I will be one of Coyote's "we". I am quite capable of researching things like this. If it exists on the internet, or as rightwingers like to call it, the "tubes", I can find it.
​
I can't believe you are trying to call coyote out on this. The original poster obviously thought he could get some mileage out of a lame ass quote that really doesn't say anything except newagey mumbo-jumbo. If he can attribute it, he should attribute it. You Sir should not be questioning that he asks for a source.

Re: Possible Limits On Human Life-span?
So we can be confident that the original "quote" is made up. I notice the original poster never offered any backup.
