" Every single scientific theory that has been shown to be inaccurate, had great evidence behind it"

Examples?

Lamarckism

Newtonian physics

pre-atomic chemistry

pre-DNA cell biology

All of these were solid, based on what was known, until something previously unknown was added.

Climatology has the weakness of being unable to validate its theories. There are two uses of the word theory; a supposition which is not backed by observation is known as a conjecture, and if backed by observation it is a hypothesis. Climatology's observations are in fact so weak given the breadth of what is known to be inaccessible, that climatological theories can't rise above supposition. I like testable theories and reproducible results, if I'm going to change my life based on a theory.
