Okay, let's say you believe that flying purple lemons exist. That is your faith, you believe that down to your very bones, and you structure your life around your faith that flying purple lemons exist.
Okay.
Hmm. I understand what you're saying, but I just don't see it. I suppose it's possible, but I just don't see it.
I'll believe that flying purple lemons exist if you'll just show me.
There's no way to prove that flying purple lemons don't exist, any more than there's a way I can prove that talking yellow cranberries don't exist. The burden of proof is on you. Go ahead, I'd love to see a flying purple lemon. Show me just one, and I'll be right there with ya.
So tell me, precisely, how such reasoning would make someone "dumb".
