Physics is part of the same discipline that once said that phlogiston existed. It's a work in progress the same way that psychology is. I agree that it's at the point where, for practical and engineering purposes, it's pretty darn accurate, of course, but don't forget where it came from.
If you want to have a little more respect for psychology, try reading some of the peer-reviewed journals out there for the various social disciplines. You should try actually taking a look at some of the studies done with nonverbal communication and then reassess how accurate you think it might be. If you still think it's not accurate, at least you can say you gave it a shot.
