I thought carbon dating of fossils was our best argument against the 4000 years myth.

God could have put the fossils there with the right carbon isotopes.

You can't use logic to disprove belief in magic.

There's a fun belief in physics regarding this "superdeterminism".

It essentially states that two entangled particles exhibit entanglement not because of any property between them but because they share the same cause origin point (the big bang) and that their respective spin states correlate more with the big bang than each other. Essentially the spin experiments will always appear to show entanglement, but it's actually a byproduct of the big bang.

Which, as we can all maybe agree, is fucking weak by order of being disprovable
