    "the untestable‚" which is perhaps understandable for its practicality‚ but deeply flawed as both philosophy and social policy. Flawed as philosophy‚ because testability is not even a metaphysical distinction‚ but an epistemological one‚ and yet in the real world everyone uses the word “supernatural” to make metaphysical distinctions. And flawed as social policy‚ because the more that judges and scientists separate themselves from the people with deviant language‚ the less support they will find from
