Scientists get stuck on one idea and until you prove them wrong it will choke out other alternate theories. That is happening now.

@Pfuzylogic I have to agree to a certain extent, however I don’t think that string theory affects the majority of the human race. It’s called a theory because that’s what it is and theories can change. I would say religion for example affects way more people than string theory, couldn’t, one measure it by the same paradigm? Ie “stuck on one idea and until you prove them wrong….”

@TangledUpInBlue Just like the big bang before it fell apart; In science you have someone on top i.e. Penrose/Hawking that intimidates everyone until real data comes on.
Currently it is Edward Witten who is the bully on the block with String theory. if you don’t buy what he is selling, he will make you look silly. That includes other professional, scientists!
