Irony’s lost on you, huh? Say what you will but the man was right. If you’re going to go off flapping your jibs about something extraordinary be ready to back it up or shut your trap.
Ma: "Billy, I don't you not to lie...extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence."
Billy: "But Ma, I don't have time to present evidence, he's coming through the door."
BTW, Churchill couln’t prove that Hitler was going to try to take over Europe...until it was almost too late.
Thanks for demonstrating yet another, misperception, misapprehension of reality.
I did not hire you as supervisor, manager of my posting, writing or anything else.
Subject to the owner & mod's graces, I'll likely continue to flap my fingers on topics of interest to me hereon. I assume you have a scroll key and a page down key.
It may jangle your OCD & RAD related sensibilities to have to interact with folks you have no absolute control over--and whom you cannot conform to your deficient cosmology. Alas, eventually, you may gain enough years to realize that's the breaks. That's life.
By some galactic sized miracle, you might even eventually gain some respect for other perspectives.
Until then, I guess you may well have to continue feeling angst, unease, anxiety, hostility, allergic reactions when confronted with world views not conforming to your own.
Perhaps a study comparing the finite with the infinite would slightly enlighten you. Guess what--YOU are finite.
Which means ... drum roll ... you do not have infinite knowledge; you are not infinitely correct; you are not infinitely brilliant; you are not infinitely superior; and you certainly are not infinitely likeable.
They think they know something for a fact, when it is actually just their opinion (i.e. the existence of God).
Claiming there is no God is an extraordinary claim, yet they have no proof.
Since you like aphorisms, here's one that applies to this situation: "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence."
