However currently God isn't disproved. The FSM isn't currently disproved. Russell's teapot isn't currently disproved. the IPU isn't currently disproved and God isn't currently disproved, etc, etc, in fact my understanding is that nothing supernatural is currently disproved 100%. What I'm saying is all evidence suggests that these things are undisprovable, I'm not saying that it isn't possible that in the future, however far, they won't be disproved. I can't disprove that. I don't know that.
