    That’s like saying “no u” Of course it’s incorrect (I think) but now the burden of proof is on you

      I guess it depends how you see it.

      From my perspective, if someone is going ro make a statement that sounds unlikely, then they should provide proof.

      “What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence” Hitchens Razor

      However, I take your point.

      Obviously it is easily verifiable with a simple Google search

        Sorry, I didn’t explain myself well (although you got it). I didn’t mean the burden is on you, more that you were setting yourself up for a “burden of proof is on you” argument
