EDIT: To be clear.If there is an experiment to test your theory then empirical data is essential.
If there is no experiment to test your theory,
then empirical data is meaningless but it doesn't mean the theory is.
Is it easy enough to understand like this?
Once again, that's not how it works, as anyone with a high school level science education knows. Empirical data doesn't become "meaningless", and neither do theories. The fact is they are simply not interchangable even under these circumstances.
TL;DR
STOP PRETENDING YOUR THEORIES ARE SCIENCEOh yeah, I remember what it is to debate with TECSHARE. He just throws a bunch of studies or statistics around and thinks he is clever. He never makes his own assumptions about anything, probably unable to.
So what part of the topic does this have to do with? I know you are obsessed with me, but please try to contribute something.
