One scientific theory proven true.
Einstein's E=mc2 was proved when we dropped the bomb on Hiroshima.
Pasteur proved the theory of germs as causing disease with smallpox vacination. Which we have now eliminated from the world (except in germ warfare laboratories).
Semmilweis (sp?) proved the theory of germs by showing that washing with disinfectant would stop the transmission of fatal infections from new mother to new mother. Unfortunately it was 70 years before open minded scientists actually admitted his theory of washing might be true. So many dead mothers, even worse than abortion.
At least the Koran seems to have one thing right. Water probably did begin in the water.
I meant to say life did probably begin in water.
I would also like every creationist/ID person if they take the annual flu shot. If they don't then that is consistent. If they do, then on some level they must believe in evolution, because it is the capacity of the virus to evolve that requires a new vacine every year. People world wide are afraid bird flu is going to evolve to spread from human to human. If it does and is as deadly as scientists fear, will crevos deny themselves and their children the benefits of a vaccine?
This thread is riddled with holes. It's disturbing how 90% of people have no undestanding of the scientific method.
E=mc^2 is not a theory: it's a law. Pasteur proved no "theory of germs." His demonstrations supported the predictions of the germ theory of disease.
Theories can *not* be proven to be true. They are, however, falsifiable. I don't care who, on this thread, agrees or disagrees. Those in the disagree category do not understand the definition of a theory.
To quote Hawking: "any physical theory is always provisional... you can never prove it."
I see you are also completely ignorant of science. Theories are never "proven true". They can be "proven false" by simple contradiction, or they can be found to be "in accord with currently known facts" if not yet contradicted.
Wikipedia notes: "Scientific theories are never proven to be true, but can be disproven." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory)
This is elementary 7th grade science. I guess you slept through that also.
