Well I refuse to be hyperskeptic. I would ask questions to learn things, not because I want to be right. That's why I would question even the most sound theories, and try to prove them wrong. For me, it's not about being stubborn. It's about trying to take advantage of what I've learned about the scientific method, and see if I can contribute to science and make new discoveries.

I've already did all my questioning as far as math is concerned in math class. I've tried proving this stuff wrong many times, needless to say, I've always failed at doing so. 2+2 always came to 4, 9x9 always came to 81, 20+123 always came to 143. So, yeah. That's kind of tough to prove wrong.

If pinkie pie isn't real, then how do you explain the existence of ponies, huh? If ponies are real, then that's proof that Pinkie Pie is real. Checkmate, christians!
