Technically, yes, but I am not going waste my time worrying about all the ifs and butts that "technically" might happen. Science is still giving us the best gauge of reality so far.

No one is saying the opposite. We're just saying that there is simply no way to know for sure. That doesn't mean we have to alter our behaviors, but it's a fact we have to absorb.
