disprove ancient astronaughts anymore than anyone can prove them.
If you're right and I'm wrong, why should that matter?

Do we breath a chemical mixture of gases? Are we multicellular organism? This is absolutely and true stuff. Does the Earth rotate around the sun? Well I would hope we absolutely know this as true.
If there's arsenic in that water, boiling probably won't help

But I take your point that there are some scientific ideas for which the evidence is so compelling that they are extremely unlikely to ever be shown to be false, and for that reason may be treated as though they were facts. But this still does not make them so. No scientific idea is beyond question, just because a theory accounts for all the current data, does not mean that it will account for all future data.

What are you hoping to study?
Make sure to let us know when you convince your professors that aliens have visited Earth.

Do you guy's have some issues where you cannot except the fact somebody says something is possible, and pretend they said it actually happend? Again when the fuck did I ever say it was true. Never.
Stop being so disingenuous! You put forward an idea, defend that idea fervently (whether to play devil's advocate or through belief remains to be seen); we express criticism of the idea, and you think you can just say "I never claimed this was true", and that somehow magically invalidates all our objections.
Start showing some intellectual honesty.
