What he is saying is that if there is no recognizable difference between an invisible, untouchable, and undetectable dragon and no dragon at all, why believe that there is one?
Quote: But he has reached an Agnostic position which is that he is keeping an open mind. He is not claiming that the Dragon does not exist.
And neither do we, why can't you grasp that concept? We are not saying it does not exist, we are saying we see no evindence for one so we don't believe in one.
