I'm actually legitimately curious. Why not??
I'm not Rexbeccarox, but I'll respond because I would make that statement, too.
I'd say that, because I technically cannot prove there are no invisible pink unicorns, that it would be technically incorrect to say there are none. Now, that being said, there are two caveats I keep in mind:
- I have no reason to believe they do exist, either.
- I am quite doubtful that they exist, and if I had to pick a yes or no answer, I'd be more comfortable with "no".
That being said, at the end of the day, I see no reason to let the possibility of invisible pink unicorns affect my life because I see no reason to believe in them. So, functionally speaking, I live my life as though there are none. The only time this distinction would really even come up in basically in a debate.
TL;DR: I live my life as though there are no invisible pink unicorns, and if they do exist, they don't seem to be affecting me. Maybe they exist somewhere, but who cares?
