Bottom line: Demonstration is not the criteria for assenting to a premise. Thus you don't have a successful refutation here.
Pointing at the uncertainty of a prognostication does not relieve you of the responsibility of demonstrating the veracity of your premises if you want the argument to be sound. This is simply idiotic.
I find it hilarious that your inability to justify the veracity of your premises suddenly morphs into the problem of induction. You went from not being able to provide one example of a particular to support your claim to whining about not creating a universal based on a shitload of demonstrated particulars. You really have no fucking idea what you are saying. And yet you run around these forums lambasting its members for a lack of intellectual standing and inability to think critically.
