‘“Altering a theory to fit new evidence is a weakness?”

In a court of law it’s called perjury.’

LOL!!! Goodness. Thank you for that. Demonstrating you know nothing of science OR law. It’s a two-fer.

Lying on the stand is known as perjury.

I’ll break it down for you.

A guy on the witness stand, or in a science journal, declares that x because of p. (Where x is the truth claim based on p, the evidence.)

Then p is shown to include no physical evidence, so the guy changes his mind and says no, I didn’t mean x, I meant y.

He’s making things up, known as lying.
