Good then why do you keep arguing? None of the candy metaphor is an argument either. No shit, people are going to believe what they want regardless, so? Part you forget is far too many humans sacrifice knowledge out of fear because they do that. It still amounts to intellectual laziness.
You can also staple your nuts to the wall, but I wouldn't recommend it.
Okay I will say one thing bothers me. Are you saying we shouldn't think about possibilities and just wait for scientists to tell us what's true? That future discoveries will all be nothing special and expected and follow the same pattern? That we know enough to understand the entire universe and whatever might lie beyond it? High estimate we might know 1% of the universe. We don't know jack shit. At the end of the day I go to bed not believing in gods or woo, but fuck if I know how it would work if it does exist. People thinking about what possible future discoveries waiting ahead is better than people denying current discoveries because their magic book said so. Hell if christians and muslims started thinking outside their books in any way that's a win in my book.
