Anyway, there isn't absolute proof in science, but there are degrees of supporting evidence. Scientific theories are very well supported by evidence.

I to take exception to this ' un-disprovable'
It is now obvious that you will not be exceptive of any ideas that run contrary to your own preconceived ignorance. As has been well said by the many astute and well informed contributers here. Just as your 'no proof no deal' .. Then so to do you fall into the trap of 'with no proof there can be no answer.'
What is the answer to this. That from my point of view is simple. We know not why the great expansion of this universe begun. That is a question we may never answer. The fun is in the learning. Just as we learn there is more to learn. What is it you are looking for?
If it is as you say ' A method of testing what we know' Then that answer you have. That work has been well done and ongoing still. I trust the published conclusions of the scientific community.
It could be...Un-disprovable or just disprovable and unprovable or even prov-en or is that proof not enough...
I give up. Now whats the alternate ?
