proof

[Jimmy]

Then they’re not beliefs.

no, beliefs that are facts to me and beliefs to u

 

[Jimmy]

I need proof.
I'm satisfied that I have it.

what proof ya got?

 

[Jimmy]

I don't expect it to be answered.

i was gonna make a 3rd option for people like you but you guys just fall into the need proof category haha

 

[muhammad_isa]

what proof ya got?

It's a proof to me.
I am a practicing Muslim.

I can see the difference between belief and disbelief in everyday life.
I cannot imagine a universe without a reason for its existence.
..much like I can't imagine a body without a head.

no, beliefs that are facts to me and beliefs to u

 

[Jimmy]

[fantome profane]

Not proof.

Sufficient evidence to accept a hypothesis on a provisional basis.

yeah ill provisionally believe 2+2 is 4 and that i live on the planet earth. haha

 

[Ponder This]

Do you think the question of how we got here and how it'll all end can be answered without proof or are you the kind of person that would need proof to believe an answer to those questions?

Often when people talk about proof, they talk about certainty, but evidence is not certainty.

If it is a cloudy day, I might take an umbrella with me.
Why do I take an umbrella with me if I'm not certain that it will rain?

On a sunny day, I might not take an umbrella with me.

so facts dont exist? haha

 

[Jimmy]

proof proof oh how i love proof haha

 

[Jimmy]

Science does not deal in proof.

It does deal in hypothesis and theory.

A hypothesis is an explanation made with limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation.

A theory is supported by a quantity of complimentary evidence and repeatability

What caused the big bang is a hypothesis (or many hypothesis) based on either observations of current conditions and extrapolated backwards or mathematics.
The big bang itsef is an accepted theory with at least 2 lots of measurable evidence to bsck it up

Abiogenesis is a hypothesis based on environmental evidence.
Evolution is a theory backed up by evidence through several different disciplines of science.

And now the end.
There are several hypothesis of how it will all end. Personally i go for the heat death of the universe though life will be long gone when that happens

proof
noun

1. 1.
   evidence or argument establishing or helping to establish a fact or the truth of a statement.

sounds alot like science to me

You don't agree on whether or not the sky is cloudy?
If there are clouds in the sky, then it is a fact that there are clouds in the sky.

 

[Truth in love]

Depends on what counts as proof.

 

[Jimmy]

doubt thered be any haha

 

[F1fan]

no, beliefs that are facts to me and beliefs to u

So not facts, but you want to pretend they are. Why is that sort of self-deception desirable? You must be aware of it to some degree.
