I am now firmly in the Abra is an idiot camp. That is not what Occam's razor says at all. It is about adding unnecessary entities and says the theory without the unnecessary entities is most probably the correct one. Why is it that you "wishy-washy-can't take a stand if my life depended on it" morons ALWAYS misunderstand Occam's razor?
