"Falsifiability is not the definitive criteria in identifying science, but it is important. Heaven's Gate's ideas were examples of blind religion, not organic spirituality and are therefore a poor example that renders your argument fallacious.

Conversely, religious practices in the area of spirituality are often harmful to humanity." - Mattb4rd

"Lower than the approval rating of Congress? I think not." - Mattb4rd

"I didn't see or hear anything that proved any of that evidence (not testimony) false beyond a shadow of a doubt. That's what has to be there to prove 2nd degree murder." - Mattb4rd
