51. The operative word is "theory"
If science can break away from the moorings of the conceptual words like "theory" like they did with the word 'philosophy' then everything could be hunky-dory again.

Many nuances in science have divorced themselves away from their duty to humanity in the search for more bucks, why not just go the whole nine yards and start to make stuff up

Sorry for the half-hearted attempt at devils advocate but someone needs to :shrug:
