If you want that explained, it will take a bit, but if you have read all of my posts, you will already have all you need on that.But no one "knows" there are no leprechauns. Knowing is a VERY strong word to use. I am agnostic to almost everything. I threw in the almost, because I know I don't know.
Here is an old post on this:
How do you know that you don't know?
Given your claim, you should probably give up on using the word "know" altogether. I think pushing an extreme definition on such a common word is a mistake, and will continue to say that I know that there are no leprechauns and I know there is no god. For more on why, see:
