Comment on She strongly disagrees
Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 6 hours agoI completely agree. Unfortunately, we don’t do that. We fill the gaps. That’s what we did with the dinosaurs, with everything. Where we don’t have proof, we have theories. They are not fact. But presented as such by way too many people. I’m simply comparing the two and saying how ridiculous it is to say ANYTHING is “VERY unlikely” or “very likely” when all we really have is theory. It’s just… Incredibly ignorant with the little amount of info we have. So to go one way and fill the gaps while claiming we don’t, but go the other and guffaw because there isn’t evidence, is hilarious.

Based on this sentence, I don’t think you understand how science works, which might be why we’re still talking past each other.
Also it seems like you’re still hung up on what humanity has done historically, but that’s not relevant at all to what I’m talking about. I’m speaking in a pragmatic sense, about what we should do, not what we have done.
