EH>Philosophers and logicians all know that you can prove a 
EH>negative.

Math is one thing. It's not reality.
After all, one can't ACTUALLY subtract 3 apples from 2 apples in real 
life.

Likewise, in philosophy, anything is possible, or impossible.

EH>That is how science progresses.

Fine. Talk reality science...not phil or math.

With PURE SCIENCE...prove a negative!

You can't!

EH>If no one could 
EH>prove a negative, you'd still believe the world was flat.

You falsely assume that the idea that "the world is flat" is a negative.
It's a positive! And it is proven false!

To prove a negative you would have to prove something without evidence 
for same. 

It's an impossible LOOP! Get it?

Of course not.
