It is dangerous to underestimate the role and potential of human mind and brain. All theories, models and infact all science is the product of human mind. We are not 'gods' to produce any knowledge base without using the structure of the human mind. > The ONLY criteria for a successful theory are: > a) mathematical self-consistency Yes, the mathematics itself can be considered as a system of symbolic logic. > b) accurate prediction of experimental data, to the degree that there > are no data that are inconsistent with the theory's predictions where > the theory claims to apply. Yes, accurate prediction of experimental data has to be ensured through strict application of causality. As I mentioned earlier, "If a sequence of events is causally connected, we may attribute such causal connection between events to certain physical law of nature. If appropriate logical explanation is available for the causal connection between events then such causal connection plus the appropriate logical explanation is called a physical theory of the associated phenomenon." The causal connection between events or between inputs and outputs of a physical system is ensured through appropriate mathematical model of the physical theory. If it is incapable of making accurate predictions of experimental data, then it is obviously a faulty model. > > You have simply the wrong metrics for the validity or strength of a > theory. > > PD You have obviously got it wrong. A physical theory must be logically consistent and must incorporate causality in its mathematical models to ensure accurate prediction of experimental data.
