A scientist today would think that this technique

D. is not suitable for predicting the future.

Explanation:

The technique being described here obviously works on t he principles of superpower and psychic powers and has no discernible scientific basis so it is easy to see how a scientist would not be entertaining the idea or be remotely convinced by it.

The technique used here is basically following what happens to a bone when it is already cracked to be put on fire, it simply burns and breaks.

When the bone is carved upon it weakens and becomes easy to burn and break proving the hypothesis that it will only break open and show the future.

That has nothing to do with the scribbling of the past deeds.
