(14,180 posts)must exist the possibility of 'falsifiability,' some set of acrtual or potential data whose existence would prove the hypothesis wrong.
Someone who is adamantly convinced that JFK was shot by more than a single lone gunman will be hard-pressed to craft a theory with falsifiability built in. IOW, what evidence were it to exist would prove that LHO acted alone? The conspiracy theorists will be hard pressed to explain their theory in those terms. (One of several major issues that troubles me about the many conspiracy theories.)
Put bluntly, what would it take to convince a conspiracy theorist that LHO acted alone? Is there any set of potential or actual data that will so convince them that their conspiracy theory is wrong? Barring honest answers to those questions, the conspiracy theories must fail the test of logic.
