    If you’re claiming my fridge has no tiny invisible pink elephants you are welcome to provide evidence.

    I will make no claims on the matter and thus have to provide no evidence either way.

    Edit: I think you’re confusing me for the other guy.

      I think you’re confusing me for the other guy.

      I was, but you’re running defense for him so I think the point still stands.

      Believing claims on the grounds that they haven’t been disproven is just bad epistemology, and it certainly isn’t good science. Hence the elephants.

        Well, it’s a good thing that wasn’t my position.
