It's a shame that you can't appreciate the fact that saying there's no proof
and saying there's no evidence are not the same thing. So taking it much farther
than you'll probably ever be able to comprehend, sometimes things that appear to
be proof are in fact false evidence. That's an aspect I've been aware of for
decades but you'll probably never understand.
