Why accept consensus as reality?

@AllenRhoades

does this notion have any connection to string theory?

No.

@AllenRhoades

But there is evidence of how flock of birds move - we can observe it.

Either you missed my use of the word “like” in my analogy, i.e.

@Terry_Sampson

like a flock of birds

OR my simple analogy confused you.

@AllenRhoades

You are correct that I do not consider the hypothetical atoms as evidence. The hypothesis could be correct but as we know a hypothesis sans evidence does not elucidate us on our natural physical world.

Thanks for confirming my suspicion.
You would seem to me to have some difficulty handling Hebrews 11:1.
"For faith is the substance of things hoped for, the “proof/test” of things not seen [in the Greek, "ἔλεγχος οὐ βλεπομένων].

That verse affirms that there are “propositions” that are true and can and should be believed in spite of the invisibility of the proof. If you accepted that, you might disdain “the proofs” of propositions somewhat less. But that is your hurdle to jump over, not mine. We differ, and I move on to other things.

@AllenRhoades

. Again, the belief that everything must be natural is as acceptable as evidence as Ken Ham saying the Bible says so.

Both are twisting facts because of their twisted religion.

You would do better to work on the confusion that analogies cause you. That one is false, and so your conclusion is meaningless. Ergo, I am amused, but not offended by your intended insult.
