This is a question Stupid Colleagues

Godwin's Lawyer tells us: "I once worked with a lad who believed 'Frankenstein' was based on a true story, and that the book was written by Shirley Bassey." Tell us about your workplace dopes.

Er no
I don't know if there is a flotilla of battle fairies, or a giant invisible ethereal space moose, or a talking teapot on the end of a pinhead, or hyper intelligent shade of blue, or granny phantom who lives 5 minutes in the past or any other of an infinite number of absurd, unsupported unfalsifiable assertions that someone could concoct. If I chose to be agnostic on these matters I would be an idiot. I don't see why religions (or which there are many asserting mutually incompatible things) should be treated any different.

I'm willing to bet actual money there's a Petri dish in a lab somewhere
with different species of mould having a huffy, self-righteous and utterly simplistic slanging match about the nature of the universe and how there can or can't be a mould god and how there definitely isn't a third dimension or anything beyond the edge of the dish because they're completely incapable of understanding or experiencing it on any level.

I have secretly thought that for ages. It would explain a few things.

I'd take that bet
Give you pretty good odds too.

Onus is on you to find these mould though, and give reasonable proof of their debates.

I'm collecting from you in the meantime.

Which
of course it would have to be.

To prove a negative would be futile. How could the onus of proof be on you to show that the petri dish doesn't exist?
