In other words, it is entirely likely, no matter how slim, that Flying Pink Gummy Bears could and do exist. You'll neve rknow for certain, unless you assume as such taht they do not exist.

How the hell did you come to that conclusion?

Re-evaluate the term "likely".

The probability of life on Earth is 1. There is life on Earth.
