There was a time when science could not even approach what is commonly termed 'psychic phenomena'. The classical physics dictated that everything within the purview of science had to be testable and quantifiable. But so-called psychic phenomena are more qualitative and not as easily tested. Most scientists thought that the implications of psychic phenomena, if true, might even overturn science. There seemed to be so much of a disconnect that most scientists though these phenomena probably were not real or at least not physical.
With the dawning of modern contemporary science based in quantum mechanics all of that changes. It is now well known that the world is not the material objective reality scientists once thought. This has been proven by experiments in quantum mechanics, which again is the basis of modern physics. Quantum physics is not pseudo-science. Parapsychology research has shown that there are abilties and phenomena that are real and cannot be explained using classical physics. However when the implications of quantum physics are applied to these parapsychology findings, there do appear to be intriguing similarities that are too striking to ignore.
New theories of information ruling the structure of the universe, and of hyperdimensional realities are beginning to suggest that the apparently strange findings in parapsychology research may not only be one day explained by science but even are predictions from current theories.

Is it true that A scientific theory is a statement that describes what scientists expect to happen every time under certain conditions?

Why should a scientific theory be taken seriously?
A scientific theory should be taken seriously if it can correctly describe a phenomenon and their is sufficient evidence that it describes the phenomenon accurately.
What do scientists think about the theory of evolution?
The overwhelming majority of scientists accept the theory of evolution by natural selection. Any scientists that do not accept the theory usually do so for religious reasons.
Are scientists that explain events or phenomenon using natural laws instead of the supernatural?
These scientists were called "Naturalists"
What theory was advanced to explain why researchers that there were a number of centers that dealt with language in the left cerebral hemisphere and not the right?
The theory of lateralization was developed to explain this phenomenon. The fields of brain study are always changing as scientists and psychologists learn more and more about how the brain functions.
