I’ll take a wild guess that your definition of proof is rather different from mine.
“I’ll take a wild guess that your definition of proof is rather different from mine.”
I’ll take a guess that you are pendant. I can’t “prove” it, but you sure come across as one.
The word “proof” has several valid meanings. At one extreme is mathematical proof. In a court of law, on the other hand, we talk about proof “beyond a reasonable doubt,” which is obviously not mathematical proof.
In science, nothing can be proved mathematically, but we sometimes use the word proof in the less formal sense. For example, we might say the fact that the earth is not flat is “proved.”
If that is “rather different than your definition,” then I suggest you invest in a dictionary.
