Silly people. Most of you anyway
You can prove a negative. All you have to do is prove its opposite and you have indirectly proven its negative to be false. no need to be omniscient

It may be difficult to prove but some negatives can be proven to be negatives.

No, in certainty, we are people who do not think of our shape is a "residing rfile" It does not have moods that variety each and every 4 years, neither is it "extensive open " for interpretation, nor ought to the 9 persons entrusted to interpret it EVER evaluate foreign places regulation mutually as doing so!!!!!!! EVER! And which senator from long island is a Republican? A State senator perhaps! only study your link and prefer I mentioned, not even a Senator. Had I study it first i might have a similar reaction using fact the Jackson relatives.

You cannot prove a negative assertion, the burden of proof is always on the person making the positive claim. If I said that the third planet in the Alpha Proxima star system was covered with a three foot layer of French brie and told you to prove it wasn't, you wouldn't be able to even though the assertion is ridiculous.

Correction. You can not prove an absolute negative. Simply put
to prove an absolute negative would require you to be omniscient,
omnipotent, and omnipresent. That of course would mean that you
are the God of the Universe, which of course you are not.

Then again you might say to me "How do you know that I am not the God of the Universe?"
Because if you were, you would not need to ask the question.. You would already know the answer.
This is simple logic, take a course in any college, or just get a book on philosophy and logic. Its not rocket science.

So you can conclusively prove that invisible aliens DON'T exist can you... No you can't. The best you can say is that there is no evidence that invisible aliens DO exist.
That's what "you can't prove a negative" means. By the same logic, no one can prove that God doesn't exist, for example, and etc etc.
End of argument.
