As you said earlier, some might argue differently -- e.g. Lee Smolin -- The Trouble with Physics. http://www.amazon.com/Trouble-Physic.../dp/0618551050

Part of the issue is that String theory IS based on some unproveable/unmeasurable assumptions and may never reach the state of being "science." .... according to some....string threory IMO truly is on that ragged edge of what is science and what is religion.
