I think it does, he invented probability out of thin air in an attempt to explain what he does not know. It's the exact same reasoning as god of the unknowns, you fucking prick, and it's ironic that he used it in that way in this argument. KMA lol
Dude.

The god of the gaps fallacy is basically this: science doesn't know everything, therefore god must exist. If anything, Alarti's error is exactly the opposite: we've never found a higher intelligence, therefore we probably won't find a higher intelligence. The most applicable fallacy is probably hasty generalization. A much stronger argument is to say that we don't have any evidence of any higher intelligence and that belief in a higher intelligence is wishful thinking.

You used a mangled phrase for something that doesn't apply. That doesn't make me an asshole; It makes you an ignorant blowhard, but we already knew that.

Btw, nice ad hominems and cursing. You mad bro?

Eh you are incorrect, If i was generalizing i would say we haven't found higher intelligence therefore we won't. I said we haven't found higher intelligence, and they haven't found us and according to the accelerating returns the chance that we will find them is low.

I never said there wasn't a higher intelligence out there, I said it wasnt very likely.

Hasbinbad, instead of offering snide insults to support your evidence try thought, and research. You might get farther.

You don't have a point. Incidentally, there is nothing ironic about Alarti making speculations or you offering baseless hyperbole. Those are habitual behavior from each of you respectively. Outcomes that exactly match expectations are definitely not irony.

Keep trying to use that word correctly, though. Sooner or later, you're bound to get lucky.

If there was other intelligence out there. It would be made apparent rather quickly.
There is a good chance we are the most intelligent beings out there.

^implied level of discourse.

Alarti, you're such an idiot, I'm inventing a new kind of irony to cover your dumbassedness.

Rhetorical Irony
When the actual level of discourse and the implied level of discourse are at odds.
ex. "Excuse me Harrison, could you please use smaller words and talk down to my level?"

Again all you can offer is insults, without a thought process. I might give a shit about your insults if you would offer a well thought out idea.

As Alawen said I am speculating as there isn't enough evidence to prove anything one way or another. If you don't like my opinion and think you have a stronger case... provide your thought process to this discourse.
Can you?
