    Just to be absolutely clear -- I'm not rejecting proof as a tool or a concept. I'm saying that its use as a demand or offering in a chat board context is not only counter-productive, but detrimental to the argument of the user. I'm classifying "prove" in the chat board context much the way "Nazi" gets classified in the most common readings of Godwin's Law.

    There's a much ruder version of what I'm trying to formulate, but it wouldn't be appropriate for the Org.

    I agree sure, but you can't discuss Agnosticism without using "prove". It's like trying to discuss republicans without using the word "pork".
