Feel free to offer alternatives in a relevant thread. I prefer Popper to Kuhn but believe both are dated. Stll, it has little to do with the topic at hand.This has been the position of science ever since positivism was (rightly) overthrown. Popper et al continually talk about falsifiability rather than proof. However, while I understand the necessity of avoiding proof, I reject wholeheartedly the conclusions of Thomas Kuhn and I think we can do better as far as epistomological theories go than is currently discussed in the philosophy of science.
