That is how science works and that is why they are theories not facts or laws.

Actually, I guess I'm not done yet.

Given the evidence on the tabe currently, how would you falsify germ theory? (Note: Don't take any advice from Billl Maher on this answer.)

Show that microorganisms don't cause disease? Or demonstrate that the majority of diseases like cancer are not caused by microorganisms. Maybe that the specific pathogen is simply opportunistic and exploits already diseased cells?

Don't misunderstand what I am trying to say. I am not disputing Germ theory, Evolution, Relativity, QM, or even Newton (I use F=MA every day). All I am trying to say is that science is a process of falsification and elimination, not proof.
