All you have to do is to put these theories into practice.
If the practice reflects the theory then is valid.
If not then is not valid.
However if you never try you will never know.
I'm sorry but that is just inane.
Theories do NOT "turn into facts"....and it certainly does not occur by "putting them into practice".
Theories are either proven or disproven....or they simply remain theories.
Religion has been putting their theories "into practice" for thousands of years,
unchecked, but it still doesn't make that theory valid.
And that is just one of thousands of folk practices....so many have gone on for centuries,
and they're all absurd.
Just because they put their theory into practice for a long time, didn't make it valid.
Invalid argument MTL.
Take the story that .............For a long time, people cut off the feet of the dead, buried the corpse face-down, drove a stake through the heart,
and placed an iron cage over the top of the grave...because they theorized that this would prevent the body from returning as a vampire.
This so called theory was invented with a clear purpose.
Same same as the hell and all other religious crap.
Nothing to do with scientific' analysis.
The priests want to subjugate people' mind in order to pop up as the intermediaries between God and those people and by doing this they achieve that very well.
These are false theories not real scientific studied theories.
You are on the wrong track MTL.
