The fucking forum is three topics down

Can you prove that?

LOL Kingpin!   Let's call it a personal opinion.    Actually, scientific method folks, help me out here . . .      I would call a theory that has quite a bit of reliable data behind it valuable.  Not unlike a wealth of circumstantial evidence in a court case.  I would give quite a bit of credit to the possibility of the theory - but not claim that it has been proven.

That's kind of like my thoughts on the existence or non-existence of deities, Kingpin.  And it's why I put it down as my signature.  Give me proof, or yeah, it's just a theory.  If it's a theory, how much data do you have behind it?   I get to examine the data before deciding.

Now that was my usual ramble, but . . . did I make any sense, folks?

I'm afraid you can't prove science with science.
I think however that it boils down to a deliberate choice between having to accept solipsism or an external knowable reality.

Oh I know, but I can only achieve climax when someone corrects me on the internet. Thanks for the assist.

Allegedly
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
