How can someone make a sound judgement about a discovry or a theory centuries *beofre* that discovery is made or the theory postulated?

B/c its their court and they can do what they want to -- that's how.

No. If I'd asked if someone had the *right* to make a decision about something, that would be true. But I asked how it's possible to make a *sound* decision about a theory that doesn't exist yet. It'd be like asking Ebert and Roeper to give thumbs up or down to the third holographic feelaround movie to be released in 2347.
