a ton of predictions which later observations supported.
One of the best predictions followed from what Darwin described as one of the conspicuous failures of his theory. He was unable to establish why the plants and animals of the new world and Austrailia were not much more different from those in Europe. He indicated that there must be a mechanism for the animals to have gone from one continent to another but specificly thought it perposterous that the continents were once touching. He got that one wrong!

predetermination is the fact that all future events are already known. it doesn't mean there is not free will. fact if there is an ALL-KNOWING god then he would know what is going to happen hence forth predetermination. now if the all knowing god intervenes that will preclude free will.

just because something is falsifiable does not disprove it.
