That doesn't make any sense then you'll have to subject all the movies, comics etc to scientific scrutiny even though they never claimed they can withstand scientific scrutiny.
Quote:They never claimed it can withstand scientific scrutiny. You're going to see a lot of claims everywhere(like Harry Potter has a magic wand) but unless they claim that it can withstand scientific scrutiny it doesn't make sense to subject them to scientific scrutiny. If that were the case anything and everything can be subject to scientific scrutiny even if they never claimed they can withstand it. Say you do subject something that never claimed it can withstand scientific scrutiny to scientific scrutiny and then you get the result that it cannot withstand scientific scrutiny - what did you achieve? You achieved nothing because guess what you proved something they NEVER claimed! It's meaningless.
