A good scientific theory is one which is falsifiable, which has not been falsified.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Falsifiability for a theory is great, but a theory can still be respectable even if it is not falsifiable, as long as it is verifiable.
There is no falsification before the emergence of a better theory.
Every theory presented as a scientific concept is just that; it's a theory that tries to explain more about the world than previous theories have done. It is open to being challenged and to being proven incorrect.
We don't regard any scientific theory as the absolute truth.
The end of science is not to prove a theory, but to improve mankind.
I'm not sure what theory is, unless it's the pursuit of fundamental questions.
Science is defined in various ways, but today it is generally restricted to something which is experimental, which is repeatable, which can be predicted, and which is falsifiable.
The incorrectness and weaknesses of a theory cause other minds to formulate the problems more exactly and in this way scientific progress is made.
Whenever known and sufficient causes are available, it is anti-scientific to discard them in favour of a hypothesis that can never be verified.
A valid scientific theory is predictive, verifiable, and replicable. To me, that's beautiful.
