I was wrong. Just flat out wrong, no two ways about it.

...I doubt this, since general relativity and quantum mechanics can themselves be shown mathematically to be special cases of the classical mechanics as developed in the nineteenth century. So there is no evidence, experimental or theoretical, that there are any laws of physics more fundamental than general relativity or quantum mechanics. But I can’t rule it out. In science we can only say that the truth of these two theories is highly probable, not certain.

But given these laws of physics, the singularity is certain. It is certain because His existence follows of necessity, from the mathematical analysis of the equations of relativity and quantum mechanics. Given the laws of physics, the existence of the singularity is as certain as 2 + 2 = 4.

I made this point on the panel. No one challenged the laws. No one challenged my calculations. What they challenged was my statement that 2 + 2 = 4!

I was told that 2 + 2 = 4 is merely a matter of opinion. I was told that Gödel showed mathematics could be inconsistent, so anything goes.

New hypothesis: there exists no lie so obvious and stupid that a dedicated evopusher can resist it - none whatsoever!

...and yes, if you scroll down the page you'll see more of 'em showing up to claim 2 + 2 ain't 4. Evosickness may turn out to be even more serious than I expected. I see no hint or trace of a limit - they'll claim absolutely anything in their denials of reality.
