Today, I disproved a scientific theory created by my supervisor. He was furious and said that I shouldn't have tried to disprove him. He told me to continue working with his theory and now he threatens to fire me if I publish my work. FML

Who cares? Publish it. Scientific advancement is more important than a job, and if you can disprove theories made by older and more experienced scientists, I'm sure you could find work elsewhere. Props for doing that, by the way.

Publish it, discredit him, and take his job. I understand that respect is important, but you will make a name for yourself if you do, and regret it if you don't. #1 beat me to it haha but plus why would you want to continue working for such an Asshole?

OP. If you need a guinea pig, you can experiment on me. I'll become the Hulk. I don't care.

Wow! The entire point of science is to either disprove or affirm older theories in order to get closer to the Truth. What's the point of researching at all if bosses throw hissy fits when you don't agree with their thoughts on science?

Prove him wrong and discredit him, before anyone else does!

Publish yours to discredit his once it comes out and tell him sorry I tried telling you you were wrong and you didn't believe me so now your mistakes are out there for everyone else to see.

Publish it people have the right to know the truth
