Is the statement "Claims demand evidence" always true?
RE: Is the statement "Claims demand evidence" always true?
You're no more running around a computer-generated landscape looking at computer-generated objects than you are injured by computer-generated bullets. I have personally flown to a simulated Moon in a simulated spacecraft that, no matter how sophisticated the graphics and the application of real-world physical laws, still gets me no nearer to being an astronaut than does dreaming.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
