Am I understanding you correctly? They want to prove all of the theories, that they have have been teaching as fact, to themselves? KT

No, you do not understand correctly.

Actually it would probably be phenomena that coincides or reinforces their theories at best. That's why they call it a theory. Dark matter is taught as a theory not fact.

C'mon, Jim. Give us the answers. Don't keep it to yourself. KT

trek, you asked if you understood correctly and I responded with the answer...no, you don't understand correctly. I'm sorry if the answer displeases you. Perhaps you need to ask more in depth questions, like what is wrong with your understanding or lack thereof.

No KT...theories are taught as theories, not as fact.

Jim.
Why be like that? There's just no reason for it. KT

Also, no one wants to PROVE any theories. They want to examine the intricacies of the theories, to find their strong and weak spots, so as to continue supporting them, or destroy them, or modify them. Most people have no clue how science works, because they have this very distorted view of what scientists do, what they believe, how they work, and what they're trying to do. I'm not sure where this distorted view came from, but it's most definitely there. Because of this false view of science, they are outright discounted as liars, cheats, thieves and worse by those people who don't understand what a theory is. It's been shown to exist in this very board recently. Interestingly enough, if you were to rewrite that paragraph and replace "scientist" with "Jehovah's Witness" it would work just as well ![]()

Trek, what is the basis of your maniacal aversion to learning? The LHC shouldn't impact your religious views - why do you seem to "avert your gaze" from knowledge at every opportunity?
Did you not read Mike's excellent post right before yours? And that didn't make any sense to you?

trekkor, what on Earth is wrong with you? I simply answered your question precisely and concisely. You don't have to personalize this into some weird conflict.

And just what "answers" are you looking for. You clearly do not understand science and the scientific method. You have no tolerance for scientific uncertainty. This is why you cling to the magical world view that allows you to hide from the real world in a self-delusional inspired illusion of certainty.

Is the Higgs bozon black matter? How exactly will the scientists know it when it occurs? How many times will the scientists run these tests before they achieve their desired results? Or, if not, will there come a time when they'll just give up and call it a day?

In this recent exchange, I was asking Jim for an explanation of his comment to me other than Quote:
Apparently, he does, and wants to keep it a secret. Quote:
I find our conversation here frustrating at times. KT

It's because we're not communicating. Communication requires talking (typing), listening (reading), and thinking/understanding.
