# I don't think it is ever possible to prove the existence of anything
that is by its own definition outside of the bounds of rationality.

For example they've been trying for years to tell me that my friend Bobo doesn't exist, but I know he does, don't you Bobo?

What's that Bobo? No surely not, THEY DON'T DESERVE IT BOBO - NONE OF THEM HAVE EVER DESERVED IT! I CAN'T DO IT! I WON'T DO IT!






alright, alright, just let me get the axe out.

# indeed
but if Science suddenly came up with a mathematical answer to the cause of the big bang that said it seems to be a massive water buffalo with omnipresent abilities and startling control over matter, then they would possibly describe it as "godlike".

However, while religion jumps up and down and says "I worshipped the water buffalo all along, you people with your beardy bloke were always wrong and now we must have a war", the scientists would be wondering where this God thing came from in the first place and who it's creator was.

Or similar

# I recall reading of one scientist
who was working on Big Bang theory and had worked out that matter appeared in the Universe before the Big Bang. Not very long before though. He calculated that the period of time between the appearance of this matter and the Big Bang it sparked off, was about the same amount of time to say, "let there be light," in hebrew.

It means nothing.

# hahahahahahah
It's also the same amount of time as it takes to say "I fancy a wank" or "that curry I had last night is really messing with me innards, hang on a sec, I'm just going to the loo" in ancient Maori.

# I don't think it's possible to prove the existence of anything, ever.
But it's possible to disprove things, that is, to come up with better theories than the ones that say those things exist.

(Now I have to go somewhere, I'm late. *vanishes*)

# I think you've got that the wrong way round.
You can prove something does exist by finding it. You cannot prove that something doesn't exist until you've looked absolutely everywhere for it (and are sure that it isn't just behind you or moving away every time you get close).
