Actually, we know from history of science that there were some metaphysical claims that couldn't be tested in the past, but they turned out to be true.

Like what?
If you believe it, question it. If you question it, get an answer. If you have an answer, does that answer satisfy reality? Does it satisfy you? Probably not. For no one else will agree with you, not really.

No, that is precisely the point.

You profess to "believe" because you want to.

Like atomic theory, heliocentrism etc. They couldn't be tested for a very long period.

And that's why Popper rejects logical positivism (one of the reasons).

Those things were figured out by science, yeah. Cool stuff, knowing that sort of thing in the modern age.

No, it doesn't mean that God necessarily exists. I was just answering on what Dee Dee Ramone wrote that from lack of the evidence, you can conclude that God doesn't exist.
You can say that you think there is no good reason to believe in God (without evidence), but that's completely different from what he is saying.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positivism_dispute

I read Karl Popper and Adorno

You are putting the term into a completly different context and I believe you are doing this intentionaly with dishonest intent.

Or can you show me how Popper and Adorno would think that some shit bible prophecy or interpertation of the bible would leave a conclusion about current knowlege?
