BBC Building 7 Video #1 MOST Discussed on You Tube This Week

Stop assuming I share the beliefs of others.
impossible dose not mean unfalsifiable, but i am glad you have heard of this concept
For something to be falsifiable it needs to make predictions.
IE, a descriptive theory, for example Freud, has no predictive value. After the event Freud can always explain why, but he can never predict.
A prediction can be proven wrong when it does not occur thus can be falsified.
The problem with this is that Popper, as your quote mentioned, can also explain any human even. Both of these theories explain events well the problem is that they cannot both be correct. Since neither make predictions, we cannot determine which one, or if both, are false.
This is the Value of Falsifiability, please don’t teach me first year critical thinking
The governments story makes predictions for example:
that you would find pools of molten metal around the hole.
Since this prediction was not observed the theory is false.
this is what Falsifiability is.harris7 Reviewed by harris7 on . BBC Building 7 Video #1 MOST Discussed on You Tube This Week yet somehow the fact that 3 mainstream media outlets said building 7 collapsed before it did on 9/11 isn't really that important of a story...not as important as anna nicole or britney spears at least... this is just a conspiracy though, it never happened, we all know bin laden magically brought down building 7 in a perfect controlled demolition, because he hates freedom... or you can choose any of the 5 or 6 official explanations for the building 7 collapse...looks like those freedom Rating: 5
