- rmunn 7mo agoSo what are the failings? A quick skim through the Wikipedia article found plenty of criticism, but all the evidence I could find in my quick skim was in support of the theory. It's very likely I missed something in my skim; could you point to a specific section of the article where the evidence against the theory is presented?
