0:00.0 | Science is constantly proved all the time. You see if we take something like any fiction and any holy book in any other fiction and destroyed it, okay, in a thousand years time that wouldn't come back just as it was. Whereas if we took every science book, right, |
0:14.0 | and every fact and destroyed them all, |
