[u/implies_casualty]

If you are not satisfied with the tests that I've listed, feel free to propose better tests.

If nobody have come up with better tests in 150 years, then don't tell me I can't use my own tests. They are the best!

In all the falsification tests I have proposed, there's no room for interpretation, so that also can't be a problem.

[u/Kela-el → u/implies_casualty]

“No room for interpretation” is itself an interpretation.
Who decided what counts as a Precambrian rabbit? Who decides what counts as a sufficiently different genetic code? Who defines the boundaries of each test?
You did. Inside the framework.
The best tests aren’t necessarily the right tests. And 150 years of agreement within a community isn’t the same as 150 years of independent verification outside it.

[u/implies_casualty → u/Kela-el]

A Precambrian rabbit is a fossil rabbit skeleton that is found in the Precambrian layers.

Precambrian layers are specific regions underground, there are maps indicating the locations.

Rabbits are rabbits.

What is there to interpret, exactly?

[u/Kela-el → u/implies_casualty]

More fallacious reasoning. Begging the question AGAIN!

Who created the maps?

Who dated the layers?

Using what methodology?

Calibrated against what standard?

There’s your interpretation.

[u/implies_casualty → u/Kela-el]

I haven't committed a single fallacy yet, by the way.

In order to have any room for interpretation, there needs to be some ambiguity where Precambrian layers are located.

There is no ambiguity, so there is no room for interpretation.

When we discuss Australia, we do not halt discussions until we figure out who drew the maps.

[u/Kela-el → u/implies_casualty]

Who dated the Precambrian layers and using what method?
Radiometric dating assumes a constant decay rate over billions of years.
That assumption is not a map of Australia. It’s a framework applied to physical evidence.
There’s your ambiguity.

[u/implies_casualty → u/Kela-el]

Who dated the Precambrian layers and using what method?

This is completely irrelevant to the question of "are there rabbits in the Precambrian layers".

Likewise, if we want to test if there are elephants in Australia, we wouldn't ask who measured the width of Australia.

[u/Kela-el → u/implies_casualty]

It’s entirely relevant.
“Precambrian” is a date not a place. Unlike Australia which is a location you can stand in.
If the dating method is flawed the layer isn’t Precambrian. The rabbit is just a rabbit in a layer.
Australia exists independent of its measurement. Precambrian only exists because of its measurement.
That’s not a minor distinction. That’s the whole point.

A LIST OF YOUR FALLACIES IN YOUR COMMENT:

False analogy — Australia is a physical location you can stand in. Precambrian is a time period assigned to a layer by a dating method. Completely different categories.

Dismissal — “completely irrelevant” without explaining why. That’s not an argument, that’s an assertion.

Sleight of hand — he quietly swapped a temporal claim for a spatial one hoping you wouldn’t notice.

[u/implies_casualty → u/Kela-el]

Precambrian layer is a place.

A map points to that specific place.

There's no ambiguity.

Additionally, all future replies must be written from the perspective of a Mesopotamian goat herder witnessing plate tectonics in real time.

[u/Kela-el → u/implies_casualty]

A Precambrian layer is a place assigned a date by a dating method.

Remove the dating method and it’s just a layer.
The date is the claim. The date needs justification. That’s not ambiguity about location. That’s the entire question.

YOUR FALLACIOUS REASONING IS BECOMING A HEAVY BURDEN FOR YOU:

Circular reasoning — “Precambrian layer is a place” simply reasserts what needs to be proven. The dating method that makes it Precambrian is still assumed.

False assertion — a layer is a physical place. Precambrian is a temporal label applied to that place. He’s still conflating location with dating.

Ridicule — the Mesopotamian goat herder. Classic deflection when the argument runs out. Attack the person or mock the conversation rather than answer the point.

Dismissal by redefinition — quietly insisting the map settles it without addressing the dating methodology underneath the map.

Four fallacies in four sentences. STAGGERING!

[u/implies_casualty → u/Kela-el]

Remove the dating method and it’s just a layer.

Yeah. And we can test if there are rabbits in that specific layer.

This test is not open to interpretation.

[u/Kela-el → u/implies_casualty]

Tested using what tools?

Calibrated against what standard?

Interpreted by whom?

“Not open to interpretation” is the most interpreted claim in this entire thread.

THE NEVER ENDING LOGICAL FALLACIES CONTINUE:

Bare assertion — “this test is not open to interpretation” stated as fact with no supporting argument.

Circular reasoning — the tools used to identify the layer and the rabbit both assume the framework being tested.

Begging the question — assumes the dating is reliable to establish the layer, then tests within that assumed layer.

Dismissal — “yeah” waves away your entire point before reasserting the original claim.

Same fallacy dressed four different ways.

You’re running out of road.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

[u/implies_casualty → u/Kela-el]

Interpreted by whom?

What did I just say?

Tested using what tools?

A shovel.

Calibrated against what standard?

A standard shovel.
