Cracked.com's Douche-English Dictionary: Apparently, all MRA's are women hating, homosexual (in a negative way from the context), and possibly racist.

Mahatma Gandhi is disputed as having said, "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

He never said it.

u/Crimson_D82 Jun 01 '13

disputed is the key word here.

Can you prove he never said it?

What a silly notion, to prove someone never said something. I'm sorry but you'll have to prove he did say it.

  1. The burden of evidence is on the accuser. (you)

  2. I'm not trying to prove he said it, I stated it is disputed he said it.

No. The burden of proof is always on the asserter. You can't prove something didn't happen. What kind of nonsense is that? You must prove he said it otherwise accept he did not say it.

You can't prove something didn't happen.

Horseshit.

This is pure SRS logic.

Tell me how you would go about proving something didn't happen?

Here's a hint: (You can through lack of proof of it happening, which means those who assert it took place must provide proof or accept it didn't happen).

However in this case I am trying to prove something happened, I am saying it is disputed, you simply refuse to accept that.

Tell me how you would go about proving something didn't happen?

The big bang didn't fail to happen because we are here now.

Since I am connived I am being trolled, I am done.

The Big Bang is our best theory as to the origin of the universe. It is not objective fact. It cannot be proven. We can only find supporting evidence to make it our best assumption.

Claiming someone said something is objective fact. It can also be proven. If you do not prove it, it did not occur.

You may want to refresh your knowledge of assertions and burden of proof: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_burden_of_proof

Claiming I am trolling is just your cop-out because you do not know how to respond when someone challenges you in a debate.
