I trust that, by implication, this extends to all contributors to this thread, especially while it is under close scrutiny by the powers that be.
Most of us always do. You however have chosen to beard the lion in its den.

The BB is easily falsifiable but not in the minds of the supporters.

By the way, why does a theory have to be falsifiable to be scientific?
It seems to me that science is supposed to be portrayed as the truth.
Is the truth supposed to be falsifiable?
I think you mean "easily falsified" not "easily falsifiable."

Which brings up an interesting observation--there are a lot of people posting that these theories have been actually falsified, whereas in this thread here we [have] a statement that that is not even possible--that the theory is not only not false, but it's not possible to show it false.
