"An implication that YOU think you CAN is the interesting part"

I've demonstrated an appreciation of the difference. You've demonstrated an inability to differentiate between one and the other.

"AND that you can somehow discern which scientists have fallen into some "pseudoscience" realm"

You still don't get it! It is not the validity of the belief. It is the method of justifying the belief.

"All leaps or MAJOR advancements of knowlege & science comes from a complete reorganization of the substrate of what was believed previously"

It comes from refinement and addition. But it does not come from simple superstition. It comes from experiment and falsification.

"means that everything we know today could easily be fit into a 'new' paradigm at any time"

I've been trying to point that out to you. But such a shift in perspective and understanding would flow from evidence which would withstand peer review and which would attract a consensus.

"Until recently it has been only spiritual and psychological researchers and practicioners who have espoused that "material realism" is incorrect"

What are you mumbling about??
