Most theories are necessarily incorrect.

Except for yours, of course. :-)

And maybe that is a separator there, Cecil. I'm pretty sure of my
position, but I don't have faith in it. Once enough evidence comes along
to disprove it, I'll jump ship in a minute.

ah, a paradox!

There's theory, and then there's fact. I have some of the latter.
But it's the smart guys like you who tend to come up with the theories.

If your position is not worthy of any faith
at all, why do you believe in it?

What fact????
You can't even prove that you exist. :-)

Do you not believe in fact, Cecil?

You can't even prove that you exist. :-)

There's evidence indicating that I do, and none indicating that I
don't. So I'm at least a valid theory. What I can't prove is that I
don't exist. For a number of reasons.

Descartes said; "I think, therefore I am. Probably
would say today, " I think I am, therefore I may be"
Even philosophers tend to hedge their bets now, I reckon .

Personally Jim, I doubt your existence. I have a theory you are much
more likely to be a "brain in a bottle", you are nothing more than a
brain in some aliens laboratory and housed within life support
equipment, the body you see as yours is only imagined and a very good
illusion.

Some of us here are just like you, but I am real (a "control" in the
experiment you are involved in.) And, I do understand how all this can
be so confusing.

JS

Descartes was in a parade at the University of Poitiers one year. They
also had a fine stallion they wanted to show off. The owner of the horse
and the parade organizer had a big argument over who would go first
until they agreed to put Descartes before the horse.
