- ADisproof
15Two important components of The Logic of [blank_start]Proof[blank_end] and [blank_start]Disproof[blank_end] are: 1) Logical [blank_start]impossibility[blank_end] of proof. & 20 Logical possibility, but [blank_start]practical[blank_end] impossibility, of disproof.
- AProof
- BDisproof
- Cimpossibility
- Dpractical
16Logical impossibility of proof is confirming a hypothesis with research findings does not logically indicate that the theory from which the hypothesis is derived must be correct.
