Behaviorism: You cannot judge a person by their actions, because they only act and react the way they do because of their environment.

This is false, because it has been scientifically proven that man has his own free will and judgement to choose his actions.

Materialism: The physical earth, matter and energy, are all that exist.

This is false because it has been scientifically proven that there are not only physical things, but also nonphysical things. Like love, as an example. Or hatred. Hatred and love are not physical, (although they can be), but are spiritual in a sense.
