unlike ID, the ToE can be falsified.
the ToE makes predictions about data we have not yet seen and events which have not yet occurred.
it makes predictions about what we expect to see result from a given scenario, and what we do not expect to see from a given scenario.
these predictions are falsification criteria.
IF a defined scenario is observed, and its results contradict the predictions, then the elements of the ToE upon which the predictions were made are proven invalid.

Causality cannot be falsified. ToE is fundamentally about the assumption that natural selection and variability is the cause of all change.

Predictions? Give us a couple for the near future. The ToE can't even back up it's past claim with empirical evidence. It's all based on speculation.
