As I said before, however, science is not out to make 100% accurate proofs and never has.
No this is wrong. science is always striving to understand the natural world. 100% of this world. that has always been and will always be the goal of the true scientist. not all scientific theories have been 100% correct but they have always set out to explain the world with 100% accuracy. thats what a scientific theory is, an true fundemental explanation of the world. if it doesn't explain something completly it is not a scientific theory. whether it is actually correct or not is besides the point.

Thats the problem with pyschology as a science, it's not based on scientific theories, theories that explain something 100%. i think this is where science and psychology seperate. psycology has theories based on the scientific method but it does have not scientific theories. there is difference.
