Talk:Scientific theories
Appearance
I think that pointing to gravity as an epitome of scientific theory is perhaps a little off. Yes, there are models for gravity in Newtonian mechanics and in general relativity, but as the article on gravity points out, physicists are still struggling (not to say stumped) to provide and empirically substantiate a satisfying theory of gravity that resolves with quantum mechanics. Of course, perhaps this makes gravity an even better example, showing that scientific theories can be at once accepted and incomplete, showing that such a messy state of affairs is the norm for science. If so, it would be nice to mention it in the article. Grizzly
