TO Do

Theories To Accept

Questions Answered
This modification attempts to answer the following question(s):
- Synchronism vs. Asynchronism of Demarcation and Acceptance: Is it the case that acceptance of a theory necessarily implies that the theory also satisfied the demarcation criteria employed at the time of acceptance?
