That teapot is orbiting somewhere. I have no idea if my universe is the one.

Saying that you โ€œknowโ€ there is no God is an extraordinary claim. Do you demand extraordinary evidence from people that make that claim? Or do you only demand it from people following a philosophy that requires them to believe independent of evidence?

Honestly, this is about as smart as religious people demanding miracles before they will believe in Science.

I do not demand evidence that Ruasel's teapot is not orbiting Jupiter. It's clearly not and anyone who thinks it is is a quack.
