I don't think he was creating answers, just posted a misinforming quote, then tried to stubbornly hang on to it when I pointed it out.

You are right.

The one he was quoting was however such a guy who are creating his own truths, not really based on reason.
- Science is not trying to create an answer like religion, it tries to find an answer.

Actual physists are looking for this particle deep underground, as they believe it passes through the earth. Did you watch the documentary?

Unknow is different to incorrect. Well it was last time I was at school.

Once again, the value cannot be given.

Yes, I maintain that it is a baseless assertion.

Exactly, so it's meaningless to give one

Straw man?

I didn't say this or even imply it, I think you know that very well.
