You really don't see the logical difference between the phrases "The Wollemi pine is extinct" and "There is no evidence unicorns exist", do you?
Of course I see a logical difference between the two... I may not infer the distinction your are implying but I can certainly see one. So what's you're point...??
I've know all along you and your buddies have been giggling at my expense thinking that I was comparing a "real" thing with a "fairy tale". It just goes to show that you intentionally missed the point as usual in your haste to discredit rather than enlighten. It has been as transparent as your "keep it out of science class - put it in philosophy class" ruse...
What I was trying to get from you all along is which one, both, or neither is worded correctly in your consistently inconsistent application of "science speak". A point you have consistently and not surpisingly failed to acknowledge.

The only problem is in your amazing obtuseness about fundamental logic, which equates the non-existence of a concrete entity, which exists regardless of discovery (notoriously difficult to prove) with the non-existence of evidence, evidence being a human construct which does not exist qua evidence until discovered.

By the way, you still haven't responded to the question of why ID has let 200 years slip by without looking for any evidence.
