Field theory Theories that the general public rejects, many philosophers reject, or many religions reject are the theories that only scientists and a percentage of people accept.
Classification of Theories Based on Intuitiveness and Observability
[edit]Scientists and philosophers sometimes classify knowledge based on whether it has become an intuitive, mass-experienced truth or remains an expert-based theory.
Intuitive Truths (19th–20th Century Complete Truths)
[edit]These are phenomena that have been directly observed, repeatedly experienced, or can be experienced by ordinary humans. They no longer remain mere theories because they have entered common understanding.
Examples include:
- The Earth is round – observable via travel, satellite images, and videos.
- Viruses – observable under a microscope and through the study of epidemics.
- Mobile signals – everyday usage confirms their existence.
- Electricity, GPS, and time zones – direct experience validates their reality.
Theories Remaining Non-Intuitive
[edit]These are theories that remain largely non-intuitive because ordinary people cannot directly observe or experience them. Their acceptance relies on expert interpretation, experimental inference, or mathematical reasoning.
1. Evolution
- Humans cannot directly witness the transformation of one species into another over millions of years.
- Fossils, DNA analysis, and charts provide indirect evidence, primarily interpreted by scientists.
2. Big Bang
- The origin of the universe is not directly observable.
- Evidence is based on mathematical models, cosmic background radiation, and theoretical interpretation.
3. Dark Matter / Dark Energy
- Claimed to constitute approximately 95% of the universe.
- Neither directly observed nor measured by human senses; understood through equations and indirect inference.
4. Multiverse
- The concept of multiple universes is purely theoretical.
- There is no empirical way to fully observe even a single universe outside our own.
5. Consciousness as a Product of the Brain
- Consciousness cannot be directly measured or seen.
- Its reduction to neural activity remains a debated philosophical and scientific hypothesis.
6. Time as a Single Dimension
- Humans cannot reverse or stop time.
- Scientific models interpret time mathematically, but philosophical consensus is not universal.
7. Complete Materialism (No Soul Hypothesis)
- The denial of a soul arises from methodological limitations rather than empirical refutation.
8. Free Will as Illusion
- Some neuroscientists argue against the existence of free will.
- Subjective human experience often contradicts this claim.
9. Morality as Evolutionary Adaptation
- Concepts like conscience, altruism, and sacrifice cannot be fully explained solely through survival advantage.
10. Complete Scientific Determinism
- The notion that all events are predetermined conflicts with human experience and perception.
Summary
[edit]- Phenomena that can be directly observed or experienced by ordinary humans become intuitive truths.
- Concepts that require expert interpretation, long-term inference, or abstract reasoning remain non-intuitive theories.
- This classification highlights the boundary between mass-experienced knowledge and specialist-dependent theories.These theories are called weak theories that only represent a group, as opposed to theories that have become axiomatic today and this theory becomes just a hypothesis without evidence Because these failed theories are the opinions of a group of scientists, meaning they do not have personal experience of the entire universe, half of the people accept such theories, but they only accept them by blindly imitating scientists. Not that this is his personal theory. Human evolution, the Big Bang, the limits of the universe, the existence of black holes, all of these fall into this list of weak theories. Against them are theories that are real theories but have become somewhat intuitive Which are correct to call 19th century axioms, such as the Earth is round, the Sun does not orbit the Earth, but rather the Earth rotates like a spinning top, etc.
