Why do people seem to think that we are living in the most objectively correct time? They think that just because the current scientific consensus is in favor of the earth being round, that it must be objectively correct. Science can never be 100% sure of anything. For all we know, the the scientific consensus in a few hundred years will be that the earth is flat again, and the people of the future will laugh at us.

what the fuuuuuuu
are you seriously making this argument? Or is this bait are you actually joking

You could use that kind of logic on anything and everything at all. With that kind of logic you can't prove anything. How much proof do you need to say something is or isn't Jesus Christ how do you not see the inconsistencies with that line of though

The scientific consensus today, is that your mom is a whore.

Not even a few hundred years can change that.

The flat earth thing you said is retarded to the extreme because it has been verified tenfold with proof. Science however will never prove how something can come from nothing, it's theoretically impossible. That's why God is not a gap filler but a reasonable link.

There can be all the proof in the world, it matters for naught considering that it's impossible to know anything for certain.

From a bayesionist's perspective, no agent can be 100% sure of anything at any time.

What's your point?

You still never even come close to proving that something comes from nothing. Not even close. Thiests have all the reasonable findings possible for a man to accept rational faith

Nobody really thinks this. It's your prerogative that you invented from having a young and skeptical mind. Consider the amount of new shit that gets created on a regular basis and how much things change in such a short amount of time. Nobody thinks we have peaked and if they do they have no perspective
