I'm absolutely sure that dragons don't exist, but I reserve judgement on whether or not some other flying firebreathing lizards might be out there.

It works better with the god question for several reasons. One, we can easily debunk the gods of religion. Two, we cannot easily debunk that there is some entity with partial or total control over some or all of the universe. It’s not even that far-fetched, even if it’s unlikely. Actually, I was going to say the sheer scale of the universe makes the gods question harder, but that applies to dragons too. There could be a fucking dragon planet. You don’t know. You can’t know, and it’s really possible, more possible than gods.

 I don't think that it does, I think that's uneccessary compartmentalization.  I'm not, in any of this, telling you that you're wrong.  We all decide what we're confident enough to say we know or don't know.

I can know, for example, that the question that a person is asking me when they ask whether or not dragons exist has nothing to do with a dragon planet, and that were there a dragon planet.,.they would only be dragons by convention of naming them so....not by any truth content or truth referent to the subject of dragons. A komodo dragon is as much of a dragon as the dragons on dragon planet, if dragon planet exists.

This is the same..to me, as asking about gods.  Positing a powerful entity with control over some part of the universe is to posit something other than a god.  It may be similar to what we call a god....but..for what it's worth..-we- fit that description, and it won't alter our knowledge of what gods are in the first place. That entity, if it it existed... has no relationship to the ticks of our minds.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
