Bull balls. You're full of shit. Full stop.
You made an error, and now, true to form, you're changing the substance of what you said. "It is probably from" expresses a high degree of certainty, as much as is reasonable given the evidence, which he is only summarizing here. Regardless, the question is not what level of certainty the Quote Investigator has, but what level of certainty one should have given the evidence that was presented. So your bullshit argument about what he really means is just a diversion. The question is does it make sense to attribute the quote to Einstein when the earliest attestation of the quote attributes it to someone else? And the answer to that is an affirmative, "No, it does not." As usual, you're full of red herrings and bullshit assertions. You sidestepped the question only to step in your own excrement.

As far as these sentences do not carry any evidence then they are guessing and guessing can not be put at the same level as to any positive and affirmative saying.
Nothing, zero, nil.
These sentences don't carry evidence because they are a summation of the evidence which came before them. Duh. You're so full of crap. You're dismissing the whole of what was said based on only a part of what was said. That's taking things out of context and is a form of lying. As I said, you're just up to your usual bullshit and lies. It's not a guessing, it's a conclusion based upon evidence which was presented, namely that the earliest attestation of the quote is not to Einstein, but to someone else. If that evidence leads you to conclude that Einstein "probably" made that quote, then you're a fucking imbecile. Again, your dancing is of no use because you haven't defused the central question.

You should know better what is affirmative and what is not.
What's truly bizarre is the lengths you will go to in order to deny that you made an error. Yet it's clear that you're just backpedaling here because you were WRONG about what the Quote investigator had said. And this is just more bizarre contortions of logic and sense on your part. "[T]his saying is not from Albert Einstein," is an affirmative statement, and if you don't understand that much, you should go back to butt fucking Italy where they do speak a language which you do understand. Again, it isn't a question of the Quote Investigator's use of language. That's just a red herring. What is at issue is the Quote Investigator's use of the evidence. A subject your inane bullshit has not even touched. Is it reasonable to conclude that the quote is from Einstein if the earliest attestation to it attributes it to someone else? If you answer that in the affirmative, then you're a fucking moron.
More and more garbage to hide the fact that you can not provide any real and solid evidence.
We certainly live in two different universes Yog.
You on one side believe in something only after the evidence is given by physical science.
Unfortunately physical science is not able to go behind the physical things.
Consciousness is not something physical so it is obvious that physical science will not be able to give any evidence of God or how the universal system works.
Maybe in the future they may but in the meantime you are left with little.
I on the other hand I am not a fool like you that wait and wait for Santa to drop a present.
Yoga is the present and I don't have to wait for Santa to get it.
