Illustrating the burden of proof - pay me!
#84
RE: Illustrating the burden of proof - pay me!
It would be a non starter for that purpose. If gods existence was consistent with evidence it would also, by default, be consistent with observation - and vv - but it's neither..even if we insist on separating them as individual categories.

To be frank, people who suggest we should stop working on the basis of what is consistent with evidence are not exploring or describing any problem with epistemology or with semantics - they're describing a problem that their pet proposition has with reality, in reality. Chiefly - that what they intend to assert is not evident. That is is unobserved and inconsistent with what has been observed, and is evident.
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!
