Non-belief of claims about a god is not the same as making a claim that the god does not exist. #ThinkAboutIt #BurdenOfProof #NullHypothesis
Gibb Law - Civil LitigationIn legal disputes, the burden of proof is crucial, affecting who must substantiate claims. Criminal vs. civil standards differ significantly. How has it shaped your legal experiences? #LegalFramework #BurdenOfProof
AI, like humans, will be unable to definitively prove the non-existence of *anything*.

WIST Quotations Has Moved!Agnosticism is not properly described as a “negative” creed, nor indeed as a creed of any kind, except in so far as it expresses absolute faith in the validity of a principle which is as much ethical as intellectual. This principle may be stated in various ways, but they all amount to this: that it is wrong for a man to say that he is certain of the objective truth of any proposition unless he can produce evidence which logically justifies that certainty. This is what Agnosticism asserts; and, in my opinion, it is all that is essential to Agnosticism.

C.An argument can be made about mentally ill who pose a danger to themselves or others, and whether they should be confined for treatment against their will. I'm not advocating for or against that.
However, locking up accused people until trial just because they've been charged with something is a non-starter. They haven't been convicted of anything yet! All the government would have to do is charge you with a phony crime, and they can lock you away for years? No thanks.
If someone is out on conditions - bail, parole, whatever form of supervised release - and they violate those conditions, then you may have justification to confine them. It would depend on the circumstances.
But "lock up everyone ever charged before conviction" is autocratic dictator bullshit.
