[Joshua N Pritikin]

This is how science should work: Hypotheses followed to their logical
conclusions, and accepted, modified, or rejected as determined by the
agreement of experimental data to those conclusions. 

What makes a scientific hypothesis is the prediction of future
experimental data yet uncollected, and the possibility of disproof as a
result of that data.  To boldly follow a hypothesis to its logical
conclusion(s) and dare to predict the results of future experiments is a
public test of that hypothesis, open to challenge from anyone able to
produce contradictory data.
