Oh really..?

https://joindiaspora.com/posts/14697363 "Scientists using logic to prove that God does not exist are like fish using interpretive dance to prove scientists don't exist." Supposedly, perhaps... Like how Einstein (and Hawking and John Michell et.al.) used math & theoretical physics to "prove" that black holes exist... Like how Peter Higgs and associates used same-similar math & physics to postulate a (previously) theoretical particle which the general public somehow wind up popularly referring to as the "God Particle" instead of the "God-damn Particle"... —— …On the other hand though, were the fishes using interpretive dance to prove..? Or did the fishes use interpretive dance to describe..?

(Subtle difference yes, but there is a difference.)
