“[On a successfully fulfilled prediction]Isn't that handy.”
What, science working the way science is supposed to work?
“Science has a theory, perhaps based on archology,”
The study of arches? Like, victory arches or the ones in feet?
“and now they have DNA and they claim the DNA record proves their already existing theorys.”
I think ‘confirms’ is better verb than ‘proves.’ Nothing in science is proven.
And the plural is ‘theories.’
“The new evidence should have compleatly”
Wrong compleat. You wanted complete.
“overturned their existing theory.”
Only if the theory was wrong. If it was right, however, then we’d expect to find confirmation someplace else when we look.
Weird, I know.
“They should be having to scramble to come up with a new theory to explain the new information.”
No, sweetie. We only do that if the new information is NOT explained by the existing theory. If the new observations can be fully explained by existing theory, then we don’t need to scramble.
Kinda like, if archaeology finds an unknown city that turns out to have been mentioned in the Bible, then you don’t need to scramble for a new one, you can just refer to the existing translation.
